    Study Notes

    Data Science Project Stages

    • Identifying the problem or question is a crucial stage in a data science project.
    • Exploring the data is another stage in a data science project.
    • Communicating the results is the final stage of a data science project.

    Data Wrangling

    • Data wrangling involves identifying the problem or question, collecting data, and preparing it for analysis.
    • The purpose of data wrangling is to prepare the data for analysis and modeling.
    • Data wrangling is covered in the context of CSE5DEV labs.

    Data Cleaning and Normalization

    • Data cleaning and normalization are important steps in data preparation.
    • Data cleaning involves removing errors and inconsistencies, while data normalization involves transforming data into a standard format.
    • Data cleaning and normalization are covered in a lecture in the syllabus.

    Data Visualization

    • Data visualization is used to communicate insights and findings to stakeholders.
    • The purpose of data visualization is to effectively communicate insights and findings.

    Statistics

    • Descriptive statistics are used to summarize and describe data.
    • Correlation and pattern discovery are covered in a lecture in the syllabus.

    Data Types

    • Quantitative attributes represent quantities that have meaningful ratios between their values.
    • Ordinal attributes represent quantities with meaningful differences between their values, but no multiplicative relations.
    • Nominal attributes represent quantities that just specify names without any particular order or relation between them.
    • Binary attributes represent attributes with only two values, symmetric or asymmetric, and are not informative based on their values.
    • Continuous attributes represent attributes that provide concrete quantifiable measurements of an object/observation.
    • Categorical attributes represent attributes that describe an object/observation rather than measure its properties.
    • Discrete attributes represent attributes that have some order, but don't specify an exact quantity.

    Data Representation

    • The most convenient and standard representation for data analysis in CSE5DEV is the tabular format.
    • In CSE5DEV labs, a tabular representation will be used.

    Goal of Data Science Project

    • The goal of a data science project is to extract insights and knowledge from data.

    Learning Outcomes

    • One of the learning outcomes not mentioned in the text is the ability to recognize the importance of data wrangling.
