EDA
• Understanding Data Structure: EDA helps you get
acquainted with the structure of your dataset, including
the types of variables, their distributions, and the
overall size of the dataset. This understanding lays the
foundation for further analysis.
• Identifying Patterns and Trends: By visualizing the
data using Python libraries like Matplotlib and Seaborn,
EDA allows you to identify patterns, trends, and
relationships between variables. These insights can
inform hypotheses and guide subsequent analysis.
• Identifying Patterns and Trends: By visualizing the data using Python
libraries like Matplotlib and Seaborn, EDA allows you to identify
patterns, trends, and relationships between variables. These insights
can inform hypotheses and guide subsequent analysis.
• Detecting Anomalies and Outliers: EDA aids in the
detection of anomalies and outliers within the dataset.
Outliers can skew statistical analysis and modeling
results, so identifying and handling them appropriately
is crucial for accurate conclusions.
• Handling Missing Data: Missing data is a common
issue in datasets and can impact the reliability of
analysis results. EDA helps you identify missing values
and decide on appropriate strategies for handling them,
such as imputation or removal.
• Guiding Feature Engineering and Selection: EDA
provides insights into the characteristics of features
within the dataset, which can inform feature
engineering strategies. It helps in selecting relevant
features for modeling, potentially improving model
performance and interpretability.
• Informing Model Selection: Understanding the
distribution and relationships within the data can help in
choosing appropriate models for analysis. EDA can
highlight whether the data meets the assumptions of
certain models and guide the selection process
accordingly.
• Overall, EDA in Python serves as a critical preliminary step in the data
analysis pipeline, enabling data scientists and analysts to gain a
comprehensive understanding of the dataset and make informed
decisions throughout the analysis process.

Cognitive Analytics
• Cognitive analytics is a branch of analytics that
leverages various technologies and methodologies to
simulate human thought processes in order to uncover
deeper insights from data.
• Unlike traditional analytics approaches that focus
primarily on descriptive and diagnostic analytics (what
happened and why), cognitive analytics aims to emulate
human-like cognitive abilities such as reasoning,
learning, understanding, and decision-making.
• Machine Learning: Cognitive analytics heavily relies
on machine learning algorithms to analyze large and
complex datasets, identify patterns, and make
predictions. These algorithms can be trained to
recognize patterns in data, classify information, and
even simulate human decision-making processes.
• Natural Language Processing (NLP): NLP enables computers to
understand, interpret, and generate human language. In cognitive
analytics, NLP techniques are used to analyze unstructured textual
data from sources such as social media, customer reviews, and
emails, extracting valuable insights and sentiments.
• Pattern Recognition: Cognitive analytics involves advanced
pattern recognition techniques to identify complex patterns and
relationships within data that may not be apparent through
traditional methods. This includes anomaly detection, clustering,
and association rule mining.
• Computer vision is a multidisciplinary field focused on enabling computers to
interpret and understand visual information from the world around them, much
like human vision. It involves the development of algorithms, techniques, and
technologies that allow machines to extract meaningful insights, recognize
objects, scenes, and gestures, and make decisions based on visual input.
Computer vision tasks encompass a wide range of applications, including image
classification, object detection, facial recognition, video analysis, and augmented
reality
