=== About the Event ===
Modeling and machine learning in R involve a bewildering array of heterogeneous packages, and establishing good statistical practice is challenging in any language. The tidymodels collection of packages offers a consistent, flexible framework for your modeling and machine learning work to address these problems. In this talk, speaker Julia Silge will focus on three specific reasons to consider using tidymodels. She will start with model characteristics themselves, move to the wise management of your data budget, and finish with feature engineering.
