Study Notes
Introduction to Data Science
- Data science is considered the "sexiest job of the 21st century"
- It involves knowledge discovery from data using various methods
- Data mining is a key part of data science, involving data preprocessing, transformation, and evaluation
The Data Science Process
- The KDD process model involves focusing, selecting, preprocessing, transforming, and evaluating data
- Focusing involves getting the data, beschaffung, and organization
- Selecting involves choosing relevant data from files or databases
- Preprocessing involves integrating data from different sources, checking for completeness and consistency
- Transformation involves discretizing numeric attributes, deriving new features, and reducing data dimensionality
Ensemble Learning and Non-Linear Separation
- Ensemble learning involves generating multiple models and combining them for better results
- Non-linear separation involves separating data into classes using non-linear boundaries
Deriving Features from Complex Objects
- Features can be derived from complex objects such as images, genes, and texts
- Feature spaces are used to represent these complex objects in a meaningful way
- Typical transformation tasks include scaling, normalizing, generalizing, and reducing data dimensionality
Important Notes
- Data mining methods work on the derived feature space, regardless of the original object
- The mapping to a meaningful feature space is crucial
- Many transformation tasks change the data based on assumptions, and should be handled with care if these assumptions are not explicit
