- M04Explainability with SHAP and partial dependence
- M05Reproducible pipelines and model reporting
- M06Capstone: an end-to-end model on your own data
You will be able to
- Choose and justify the right model for a scientific question
- Avoid the validation mistakes reviewers reject
- Explain model behaviour to non-technical stakeholders
- Leave with a portfolio-ready, documented project
