    Study Notes

    • Data preprocessing tasks include data consolidation, data cleaning, and data reduction.
    • Data preprocessing is needed to prepare the data for analytics.
    • Data preprocessing can be done using SQL queries, software agents, or web services.
    • Data preprocessing is an art and it develops with experience.
    • Descriptive statistics are a collection of mathematical techniques used to describe the data as it is.
    • Descriptive statistics for descriptive analytics measure various aspects of centrality, dispersion, and shape properties of data.
    • Regression modeling is a part of inferential statistics used to characterize the relationship between explanatory (input) and response (output) variables. It can be used for hypothesis testing and forecasting.
    • Regression modeling is a process of predicting future outcomes based on past data.
    • The assumptions made when performing regression modeling can affect the accuracy of the predictions made.
    • There are two main types of regression modeling: simple linear regression and multiple linear regression.
    • Logistic regression is a popular statistics-based classification algorithm that employs supervised learning.
    • Business reports are communication artifacts that contain information about business matters.
    • Data visualization is the use of visual representations to explore, make sense of, and communicate data.
    • Data visualization is related to information graphics, scientific visualization, and statistical graphics.
    • Data preprocessing is needed to make the data ready for analytics.
    • Data preprocessing includes data consolidation, data cleaning, data transformation, and data preprocessing tasks.
    • Data reduction is a key task in data preprocessing. It involves reducing the number of variables, cases, or samples.
    • Data preprocessing tasks can be performed using SQL queries, software agents, or Web services.
    • Domain expertise is often needed to perform data preprocessing tasks effectively.
