Study Notes
Types of Data
- Discrete Data: Values that are distinct and separate, such as the number of cars (e.g., Jatin has 2 cars) or players in a field (e.g., 13 players).
- Continuous Data: Values can fall within a range, such as weight (e.g., 37 kg) or body temperature (e.g., 101°F).
Data Transformation Pyramid
- Data: The raw, unfiltered state of information.
- Information: Identifies patterns within the data.
- Knowledge: Provides predictability based on the information.
- Wisdom: Represents the highest form of understanding derived from the knowledge.
Domains of Data
- Business: Includes sales, finance, marketing.
- Geographical: Involves climate, meteorological, and location data.
- Transport: Data from sensors, cameras, and navigational systems.
- Scientific: Covers biological, astrophysical, and medical data.
- Statistical: Various forms of statistical information.
Data Generation
- Magnitude of Data: 2.5 quintillion bytes generated daily.
- Sources of Data: Social media, business transactions, location-based data, sensors, digital media, and consumer behavior.
Benefits of Data
- Recommendations: Algorithms suggest movies, restaurants, or books.
- Classifications: Sorting emails based on type (important, social, promotions).
- Pattern Detection: Analyzing weather or financial market patterns.
- Forecasting: Predicting sales and customer retention.
- Recognition: Voice, facial, and text recognition capabilities.
- Anomaly Detection: Identifying fraud or diseases.
Data Trends
- Unstructured Data: By 2025, over 80% of data will be unstructured.
- Data Science: Combines programming, statistics, and domain expertise to derive insights from data.
Data Science Components
- Multidisciplinary: Involves statisticians, computer scientists, mathematicians, and domain experts across multiple fields.
- Techniques Used: Machine learning, cluster analysis, data mining, and visualization.
Practical Applications of Data Science
- Recommendation Systems: Analyze customer data for personalized suggestions.
- Decision-Making: Self-driving cars utilize data from sensors to make driving decisions.
- Predictive Analysis: Weather forecasting using various data collection methods to predict natural disasters.
Data Analysis Process
- Life Cycle: Comprises data requirement specifications, data collection, data processing, data cleaning, and data modeling.
- Data Cleaning: Addresses issues like typographical errors, missing values, and out-of-range values.
Categories of Data
- Structured Data: Fixed format stored in databases (e.g., enrollment records).
- Unstructured Data: Diverse formats without a fixed structure, challenging to process (e.g., text files, images).
- Semi-Structured Data: Mixture of structured and unstructured (e.g., XML, JSON).
Relationship of AI, ML, and DL
- Artificial Intelligence (AI): Encompasses algorithms simulating human intelligence.
- Machine Learning (ML): A subset of AI focused on learning from data.
- Deep Learning (DL): A further subset of ML that leverages neural networks for complex learning tasks.
Learning Algorithms
- Supervised Learning: Requires labeled data for training to recognize features and accurately classify inputs.
- Unsupervised Learning: Does not require labeled data; it identifies hidden patterns and insights independently.
Netflix Case Study: Recommendation System
- Function: Analyzes user preferences to suggest movies similar to past selections.
-
Types of Systems:
- Content-Based: Recommends similar content based on user history and characteristics (e.g., genre).
- Collaborative Filtering: Provides recommendations based on the preferences of similar users to enhance viewing experience.
