Learn to tackle data cleaning challenges by applying data wrangling techniques to messy real-world data. Transfer knowledge to your own projects and have fun applying it while growing your skills.
tackle a KNIME data cleaning challenge by generating complete date ranges per project, joining with costs, and filling gaps with the previous value using a loop and missing value steps.
Explore splitting a long sentence into 100-character lines in KNIME data cleaning challenges by building a workflow with cell splitter, length, moving aggregation, and group by to concatenate lines.
Execute an approximate match in KNIME by concatenating two tables, sorting by start, filling missing values from the previous value, and applying a rule-based filter to map to lower threshold.
Build a KNIME workflow to compute, for each customer, how many stay days are weekends versus weekdays by generating daily date ranges, extracting weekday names, classifying weekends, and aggregating results.
Learn to check for missing flow variables in KNIME using a Python note and a try-catch note to route results based on variable availability.
Explore the available information challenge in KNIME: read data, split by pipes, split comma-separated values into lists, remove brackets with regex, apply one-hot encoding, and group to show availability.
Perform an approximate date lookup in knime by using a dictionary to map input dates to record numbers within date ranges, using group by, group loop, and row filter.
Explore a knime text processing challenge that removes target phrases from a source table using a dictionary replacer and entity-aware dictionary tagging to handle multi-word terms.
Map descriptions to keywords in a KNIME workflow using joins, wildcard matches, string manipulation, duplicate filtering, and aggregation to attach keywords back to each description.
Learn to clean misspelled data in Knime by using similarity search to map source to reference names, configure Levenshtein distance, and join results to replace misspellings with correct names.
Learn to fix date conversion issues in knime by using string manipulation and regex to normalize date formats and convert them to dates with the string to date time node.
Knime data cleaning challenge demonstrates building a molecule workflow to count atoms per molecule. It uses string manipulation, regex, cell splitter, and pivot to produce a zero-filled final table.
KNIME data cleaning challenges
The world of today and tomorrow is mainly driven by data. Companies need people with skills in data preparation and extraction.
Let's face it. Data is everywhere but it's messy. We spend hours and hours cleaning it using various tools (Excel, Python, R, ...)
What about spending less time, using a tool which requires no coding (allows it but does not require it!), which is fun to work with and has incredible data cleaning capabilities? That means, more fun and working faster!
This course is hands on and gives you the chance to learn and increase your skills in KNIME by facing data cleaning challenges
No matter if you are a business user working with data, a business user, a data analyst, data scientist or data engineer, KNIME is the right tool for you.
In this course we tackle various data cleaning examples and solve them together. The course was requested by students who wanted to see more hands on data challenges and assumes you have used KNIME before.
The goal is to learn KNIME nodes and concepts which can be transfered to your own data cleaning challenges.
If you have no prior knowledge then I highly recommend to take my beginners course "KNIME - a crash course for beginners" first. There you learn all the basics in a complete case study to get you up to speed. Based on this knowledge you can improve your skills with this and my other KNIME courses you find here.
I am convinced the course content provides value and will help you in your daily work and / or future career in our data driven world.
Are you ready? Then let's go!
