    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
