18
4.0 Technical Contents
In this training program, I learned the following technology:
Data Science
 Data Science as a multi-disciplinary subject that uses mathematics, statistics, and
computer science to study and evaluate data.
 The key objective of Data Science is to extract valuable information for use in
strategic decision making, product development, trend analysis, and forecasting.
Data Science concepts and processes are mostly derived from data engineering,
statistics, programming, social engineering, data warehousing, machine learning,
and natural language processing.
 The key techniques in use are data mining, big data analysis, data extraction and
data retrieval. Data science is the field of study that combines domain expertise,
programming skills, and knowledge of mathematics and statistics to extract
meaningful insights from data.
 Data science practitioners apply machine learning algorithms to numbers, text,
images, video, audio, and more to produce artificial intelligence (AI) systems to
perform tasks that ordinarily require.
DATA SCIENCE PROCESS:
 The first step of this process is setting a research goal. The main purpose here is
making sure all the stakeholders understand the what, how, and why of the project.
 The second phase is data retrieval. You want to have data available for analysis,
so this step includes finding suitable data and getting access to the data from the
data owner. The result is data in its raw form, which probably needs polishing and
transformation before it becomes usable.
 Now that you have the raw data, it’s time to prepare it. This includes transforming
the data from a raw form into data that’s directly usable in your models. To achieve
this, you’ll detect and correct different kinds of errors in the data, combine data
from different data sources, and transform it. If you have successfullycompleted
this step, you can progress to data visualization and modeling.
 The fourth step is data exploration. The goal of this step is to gain a deep

19
 understanding of the data. You’ll look for patterns, correlations, and deviations
based on visual and descriptive techniques. The insights you gain from this phase
will enable you to start modeling.
 Finally, we get to the sexiest part: model building (often referred to as “data
modeling” throughout this book). It is now that you attempt to gain the insights or
make the predictions stated in your project charter. Now is the time to bring
outthe heavy guns, but remember research has taught us that often (but not always)
a combination of simple models tends to outperform one complicated model. If
you’ve done this phase right, you’re almost done.
 The last step of the data science model is presenting your results and automating
the analysis, if needed. One goal of a project is to change a process and/or make
better decisions. You may still need to convince the business that your findings
will indeed change the business process as expected. This is where you can shine
in your influencer role. The importance of this step is more apparent in projects ona
strategic and tactical level. Certain projects require you to perform the business
process over and over again, so automating the project will save time.

Machine Learning
 Making use of past data and attributes we predict future using this data.
 Supervised Learning Supervised learning is a type algorithm that uses a known
dataset (called the training dataset) to make predictions. The training dataset
includes input data and response values.
 Regression-which have continuous possible values.
 Classification-which have only two values.

 Cancer prediction is either 0 or 1.

 Unsupervised learning is the training of machine using information that is neither

classified nor. Here the task of machine is to group unsorted information according
to similarities, patterns and differences without any prior training of data.

 Clustering: A clustering problem is where you want to discover the inherent

groupings in the data, such as grouping customers by purchasing behaviour.

20
  Association: An association rule learning problem is where you want to discover
rules that describe large portions of your data, such as people that buy X also tend
to buy Y. Stages of Predictive Modelling sense out of that summary to discover
insights, anomalies. When two variables are studied together for their empirical
relationship. When you want to see whether the two variables are associated with
each other. It helps in prediction and detecting anomalies.

Database- MYSQL
In the realm of data science and machine learning, MySQL serves as a foundational
element for efficient data management and analysis. MySQL's relational database
management system provides a robust platform for storing structured datasets, offering
data scientists a reliable storage solution. Through SQL queries, data scientists can
seamlessly explore, clean, and preprocess data within the database, streamlining the initial
stages of analysis. The integration capabilities of MySQL with popular data processing
tools and languages, such as Python and R, facilitate smooth data manipulation and
analysis workflows. Furthermore, MySQL's scalability ensures its suitability for handling
large datasets, a critical aspect of machine learning tasks. As a repository for training
data, MySQL databases enable the extraction of datasets through SQL queries,
contributing to the preparation of data for machine learning model training. The security
features and access controls inherent in MySQL ensure the confidentiality and integrity
