Creating a Regression Model with Azure ML Designer

In this hands-on lab, you are working as a data scientist for Bike4Ever, a bike rental company. You’ve been asked to come up with a model that can be used to predict bike rentals based on factors such as weather, temperature, day of the week, and more. You’ll use Azure Machine Learning studio and Azure Machine Learning designer to create a regression model that will predict bike rentals.

  1. Challenge

    Open the Azure ML Studio and Create a New Dataset

    In the Azure ML studio, create a new dataset using the bike rental data file from Microsoft.

  2. Challenge

    Review the Dataset

    Take a look at the data you’re working with and see if there are any missing values or values that will cause issues.

  3. Challenge

    Design a Pipeline to Predict Bike Rentals

    Using the Azure Machine Learning designer, drag and drop modules to create a pipeline that will train a regression model to predict bike rentals. When setting the compute type, set it to Compute cluster.

  4. Challenge

    Review the Results

    Take a look at some of the metrics for the run. For example, the R2 score or the root mean squared error.

  5. Challenge

    Bonus: Optimization of the Model

    As a fun bonus objective, feel free to tweak some settings in your pipeline to see if you can get better scores for your model.
