Study Notes
Data Analysis Methods
- Data analysis methods are used to extract useful information from data.
- This presentation discusses data analysis methods for a car company.
Data Analysis Problem
- A car manufacturer wants to understand which customers are most likely to purchase a new car model.
- They collect data on customer demographics from social media.
- The company aims to determine the factors (age, income) that predict a customer's likelihood of buying a new car.
Research to Solve the Problem
- Problem definition and hypothesis formulation are the preliminary steps.
- Collecting data on target population is next.
- Data analysis and statistical calculation are essential for extracting insights.
- Hypothesis testing and conclusions based on the analysis.
- A summary of the knowledge extracted regarding the topic.
Relationship between Data, Information and Knowledge
- Data provides raw figures.
- Information processes these figures to offer insights.
- Knowledge synthesizes the insights into a deeper understanding.
Data Set Definition
- Input: Customer data, including age and estimated salary.
- Output: Purchase probability estimation for each customer.
Data Example
- A table is shown that includes data on customer ID, gender, age, estimated salary, and a binary "purchased" field (0 or 1).
Data Description
- Each data point represents a customer.
- Features include their gender, age, estimated salary, and whether they purchased the car.
- There are different data types.
Data Analysis (Data Description)
- Identifies patterns and summaries of the data.
- Describes each feature using summary statistics.
- Illustrates the frequency of different values.
Data Analysis (Descriptive Statistics)
- Key details include ratios(e.g., male/female), counts, and ranges/distributions.
- Statistical calculations involving descriptive statistics like mean, median, mode.
- Includes measures of central tendency like mean and median, as well as spread indicators such as variance, standard deviation and Interquartile Range.
Data Analysis (Correlation Analysis)
- Analyzing the relationships between features, such as income and age.
Data Analysis Techniques
- Different techniques to analyze data, such as calculating minimum, maximum, median, and variance.
- Using numerical summaries, such as mean, median, and mode.
- Methods to understand the relationship between different factors.
- Illustrating correlations, such as scatter plots.
- Understanding the distribution of the data, using visualizations, like histograms or box plots.
Identifying and Classifying Data
- Each data point represents a customer.
- Features include age, estimated salary and if they bought a car or not.
- Data types: Numerical (age, salary), Categorical (gender, purchase).
Data Types
- Numerical data (e.g., age, salary).
- Categorical data (e.g., gender, purchase status).
Data Summary
- A description of the data, including the different variables and their types.
- The purpose and use of data for analysis.
