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.
