    Study Notes

    Importance of Data

    • Data is vulnerable to inconsistencies and uncertainty due to collection from various sources.
    • Data has four key characteristics: Volume, Velocity, Variety, and Veracity.

    Types of Analytics

    • Descriptive Analytics: analyzes past data to describe what happened.
    • Diagnostic Analytics: identifies and responds to anomalies in data to understand why something happened.
    • Predictive Analytics: predicts future outcomes based on past data.
    • Prescriptive Analytics: determines the best course of action based on past data, trends, and predictions.

    Data Science Process

    • Data Gathering or Acquisition: collecting data from various sources.
    • Data Preparation: cleaning, transforming, and preparing data for analysis.
    • Data Modeling: creating a visual representation of an information system to show data relationships and structures.

    Data Modeling Tools

    • Python: a high-level programming language used for data analysis, machine learning, and data visualization.
    • R: a programming language and environment for statistical computing and graphics.
    • SAS: a software suite for data management, advanced analytics, and business intelligence.

    Advanced Data Analytics Methods

    • Association Rule Learning Analysis: identifies relationships among variables in large datasets.
    • Classification Tree Analysis: models time-to-event data.
    • Decision Tree Algorithms: identifies classes and predicts behaviors from data.
    • Regression Analysis: predicts relationships between variables.
    • Genetic Algorithms: solves optimization problems in machine learning.

    Visualization

    • Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs): a machine learning program that makes decisions like the human brain.
    • Association Rule Learning, Classification and Regression Analysis, Decision Trees Analysis, and Genetic Algorithms are used for visualization.

    Data Preparation, Model Planning, and Model Building

    • Data Preparation: involves data cleaning, choosing samples for training and testing, and combining or aggregating datasets.
    • Model Planning: performs extra data exploration, data conditioning, and transformations to prepare data for the model building phase.
    • Tools for Data Preparation: Hadoop, Alpine Miner, OpenRefine, and Data Wranglers (Trifacta Wrangler).

    Big Data

    • 5V's of Big Data: Volume, Velocity, Variety, Veracity, and Value.
    • Sources of Big Data: Media, Social, Machine, and Historical.
    • Objectives of Big Data: analyzing customer behavior, combining multiple data sources, improving customer service, generating additional revenue, and being more responsive to the market.

    Data Analytics Practice

    • Machine Learning: a type of data analytics that enables machines to learn from data.
    • Simulation: a type of data analytics that models real-world situations to predict outcomes.
    • Time Series: a type of data analytics that analyzes data points in time sequence.
    • Signal Processing: a type of data analytics that analyzes and extracts insights from signals.
    • Natural Language Processing: a type of data analytics that extracts insights from unstructured text data.
    • Crowdsourcing: a type of data analytics that involves collecting data from a large group of people.
    • Data Fusion: a type of data analytics that combines data from multiple sources to gain insights.
    • Data Integration: a type of data analytics that combines data from multiple sources into a unified view.
    • Genetic Algorithm: a type of data analytics that solves optimization problems in machine learning.
