Advanced Python for ML
Advanced Python for ML
2. Functional Programming in ML
- Lambda Functions - Compact function definitions
- Map, Filter, Reduce - Efficient dataset transformations
- List, Dict, and Set Comprehensions - Optimizing loops
- Generators & Iterators - Handling large datasets efficiently
3. Performance Optimization
- Profiling (cProfile, timeit, line_profiler) - Identifying slow code
- Vectorization - Speeding up loops with NumPy
- Caching (functools.lru_cache) - Reducing redundant computations
- Cython & Numba - Accelerating Python with compiled code
4. Memory Management
- Garbage Collection (gc module) - Controlling memory usage
- Deep Copy vs. Shallow Copy - Managing mutable objects
- Efficient Data Storage - Using Parquet, HDF5, and Pickle for ML datasets
