Data Science Cr7

The document describes the steps taken to predict Cristiano Ronaldo's goal scoring using decision tree classification on a CSV dataset. The steps include: 1) reading the CSV file into a Jupyter notebook, 2) cleaning the data by replacing missing values and one-hot encoding categorical variables, 3) splitting the data into training and test sets, 4) using a decision tree classifier to predict goal scoring and probabilities, 5) outputting the results to a new CSV file. The process provided a valuable learning experience in applying data science skills to a real-world problem.

 CRISTIANO RONALDO one of the greatest


players in football is always a delight to watch
and me, being one of his greatest fans am
privileged to predict his goal scoring using
data science.
 STEP 1
 Since the data was given to me in a csv file, I
decided to use python 3 since I am well of
with data analysis and visualization using
pandas library. I used a Jupyter notebook for
programming in python and data
manipulation.
 STEP 2:
 Now I read the csv file using the required
commands in python and then looked out for
the shape of the data set given since it will
give me a brief overview as to what is actually
happening out there.
 Then I replaced all the ‘no values’ with 0 for
the time being since machine learning
algorithms cannot run when there is no data
in the training set itself(i.e alternative to
dropping rows).
 STEP 3:
 I Then created dummy variables for all the
string type elements using One Hot encoding
method and removed the duplicate columns
for removing redundancy.
 The next step was for me to replace the 0
value in the columns by the mean values. This
was done only in columns where the data was
already in float format . If it is done in the
other columns boolean could not be
converted to float.
 STEP 4:
 I decided the value of the y variable as the
‘is_goal’ column and the X variable as all the
columns other than y for predicting the
outcome.
 Please know that as a football player all the
parameters matter while playing and thus I
have chosen every column for learning .
 STEP 5:
 I imported the decision tree classifier library
from scikit-learn and then predicted the
outcome of the goal scoring using the same
algorithm.
 I split the data set into Training and test set
using train_test_split in model selection
library.
 Finally I predicted the values of the column
is_goal.
 STEP 8
 Since the probability of scoring was asked I
used the decision tree algorithm to find the
probablity using predict_proba function and
thus got a numpy array
 The numpy array was finally converted to a
1D numpy array using the function ravel().
 Step 9:
 The required output was separately collected
in a dataframe and was named in a csv file as
per the instructions .
 The Entire programming document was also
collected.Here is a sample output
 I am really happy that I got to solve a real life
case study using my programming skills.
Whether the answer I got was right or wrong I
really pushed myself to the limits especially in
my thought process.
 Thank you for giving me such a wonderful
experience.
