Differentiate between univariate, bivariate and multivariate analysis.

Univariate analysis are descriptive statistical analysis techniques which can be differentiated based on one variable involved at a given point of time. For example, the pie charts of sales based on territory involve only one variable and can the analysis can be referred to as univariate analysis.

The bivariate analysis attempts to understand the difference between two variables at a time as in a scatterplot. For example, analyzing the volume of sale and spending can be considered as an example of bivariate analysis.

Multivariate analysis deals with the study of more than two variables to understand the effect of variables on the responses.

Important Python Libraries for Data Science

Python is the most widely used programming language today. When it comes to solving data science tasks and challenges, Python never ceases to surprise its users. Most data scientists are already leveraging the power of Python programming every day. Python is an easy-to-learn, easy-to-debug, widely used, object-oriented, open-source, high-performance language, and there are many more benefits to Python programming.People in Data Science definitely know about the Python libraries that can be used in Data Science but when asked in an interview to name them or state its function, we often fumble up or probably not remember more than 5 libraries. Important Python Libraries for Data Science: Pandas NumPy SciPy Matplotlib TensorFlow Seaborn Scikit Learn Keras 1. Pandas Pandas (Python data analysis) is a must in the data science life cycle. It is the most popular and widely used Python library for data science, along with NumPy in matplotlib. With around 17,00 comments on GitH...

R vs Python: Who is the Winner according to me...!!

As a data scientist, you probably want and need to learn Structured Query Language, or SQL. SQL is the de-facto language of relational databases, where most corporate information still resides. But that only gives you the ability to retrieve the data — not to clean it up or run models against it — and that’s where Python and R come in.R and Python both share similar features and are the most popular tools used by data scientists. Both are open-source and henceforth free yet Python is structured as a broadly useful programming language while R is created for statistical analysis. A little background on R R was created by Ross Ihaka and Robert Gentleman — two statisticians from the University of Auckland in New Zealand. It was initially released in 1995 and they launched a stable beta version in 2000. It’s an interpreted language (you don’t need to run it through a compiler before running the code) and has an extremely powerful suite of tools for statistical modeling and graphing...

Machine Learning Interview Questions - Part 1

Q1. What is Machine Learning? Machine Learning  explores the study and construction of algorithms that can learn from and make predictions on data.  Closely related to computational statistics.  Used to devise complex models and algorithms that lend themselves to a prediction which in commercial use is known as predictive analytics. Given below, is an image representing the various domains Machine Learning lends itself to. Q2. What is Supervised Learning? Supervised learning  is the machine learning task of inferring a function from labeled training data. The training data consist of a set of training examples. Algorithms: Support Vector Machines, Regression, Naive Bayes, Decision Trees, K-nearest Neighbor Algorithm and Neural Networks E.g. If you built a fruit classifier, the labels will be “this is an orange, this is an apple and this is a banana”, based on showing the classifier examples of apples, oranges and bananas. Q3. What is Unsu...
