Download or read book Data Science Quick Reference Manual Exploratory Data Analysis, Metrics, Models written by Mario A. B. Capurso and published by Mario Capurso. This book was released on 2023-08-23 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work follows the 2021 curriculum of the Association for Computing Machinery for specialists in Data Sciences, with the aim of producing a manual that collects notions in a simplified form, facilitating a personal training path starting from specialized skills in Computer Science or Mathematics or Statistics. It has a bibliography with links to quality material but freely usable for your own training and contextual practical exercises. Third of a series of books, it first summarizes the standard CRISP DM working methodology used in this work and in Data Science projects. Since this text uses Orange for the application aspects, it describes its installation and widgets. Then it considers the concept of model, its life cycle and the relationship with measures and metrics. The measures of localization, dispersion, asymmetry, correlation, similarity, distance are then described. The test and score metrics used in machine learning, those relating to texts and documents, the association metrics between items in a shopping cart, the relationship between objects, similarity between sets and between graphs, similarity between time series are considered. As a preliminary activity to the modeling phase, the Exploration Data Analysis is deepened in terms of questions, process, techniques and types of problems. For each type of problem, the recommended graphs, the methods of interpreting the results and their implementation in Orange are considered. The text is accompanied by supporting material and you can download the samples in Orange and the test data.
