    Study Notes

    Hypothesis Testing

    • The first step in hypothesis testing is formulating a null hypothesis (H0) and an alternative hypothesis (H1) to establish a basis for comparison.
    • The main purpose of hypothesis testing is to make inferences about populations based on sample data, determining if there is enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis.

    Graphical Representation

    • A line graph is commonly used for comparing time-specific points, efficiently displaying trends over time and highlighting changes in data.

    Z-Scores in Statistical Analysis

    • Z-scores measure how many standard deviations a data point is from the mean, allowing for comparison across different datasets and normalizing values for analysis.

    Analysis Process Steps

    • Immediately after building models in the analysis process, model validation occurs to assess the performance and accuracy of the established models.
