Study Notes
Underfitting in Machine Learning
- Underfitting occurs when a machine learning model is too simple to capture the underlying patterns in the data.
- An underfit model treats true parameters as noise, failing to identify actual relationships.
- Overfitting happens when a model is too complex and identifies spurious relationships.
- Labeling input data in machine learning relates to supervised or unsupervised techniques.
Big Data Characteristics
- Volume refers to amount of available data.
- Velocity refers to the speed at which data is communicated.
- Variety refers to the degrees of structure in which data exists.
- "Terabyte" refers to volume.
- "Latency" refers to velocity.
Fintech Examples: Text Analytics
- Text analytics analyzes unstructured data in text or voice forms.
- Text analytics determines the frequency of words in documents.
- Algorithmic trading is computerized securities trading, and is based on preset trading rules.
- Natural language processing employs computers and AI to interpret human language.
Fintech Definition
- Fintech includes technological developments with applications in financial services.
- Fintech also includes the industry that develops these technologies.
- A large portion of data exists in unstructured forms.
- Automated investment advice is a potential application of fintech.
Data Processing Methods
- Curation focuses on data quality and accuracy through data cleaning.
- Capture refers to collecting and transforming data in preparation for analysis.
- Search refers to how data will be queried.
Risk Management & Data
- Techniques to assess and manage risk: They require large amounts of quantitative and qualitative data.
- Techniques to assess and manage risk: Includes scenario analysis and simulations
Curation Defined
- Curation means ensuring data quality.
- Curation example: Adjusting data for bad/missing values.
- Word clouds are a visualization technique, not related to data curation.
- Transfer refers to moving data from a storage medium to where it is needed.
Supervised Learning Explained
- Supervised learning: A machine is given labeled input and output data.
- Supervised learning: The machine then models the output data based on the input data.
- Unsupervised learning: A machine is given input data to identify patterns and relationships. There is no output data to model.
- Deep learning: A technique to identify patterns of increasing complexity, it may use supervised or unsupervised learning.
Defining Artificial Intelligence
- Artificial intelligence: Computer systems that emulate the functioning of the human mind.
- Internet of Things: Networks of smart devices and buildings.
- Data science: The field of study concerned with extracting information from data.
