This one picture shows what areas of calculus and linear algebra are most useful for data scientists.
If you read any article worth its salt on the topic Math Needed for Data Science, you'll see calculus mentioned. Calculus (and it's closely related counterpart, linear algebra) has some very narrow (but very useful) applications to data science. If you have a decent algebra background (which I'm assuming you do, if you're a data scientist!) then you can learn…

I had this conversation some time ago with an Engineer who came from a traditional background.
By that I mean, he had been in the same industry (heavy engineering) for 30 years.
Of these, he had been in the same company for 25 years (and this was his second job).
After understanding from me about data science, he said that as an engineer, he did…

Dropout means to drop out units which are covered up and noticeable in a neural network. Dropout is a staggeringly in vogue method to overcome overfitting in neural networks.
Deep Learning framework is now getting further and more profound. With these bigger networks, we can accomplish better prediction exactness. However, this was not the case a few years ago. Deep…

P-values and critical values are so similar that they are often confused. They both do the same thing: enable you to support or reject the null hypothesis in a test. But they differ in how you get to make that decision. In other words, they are two different approaches to the same result. This picture sums up the p value vs critical value approaches.…

In the era of the Internet, the ability to crunch large amounts of data and process it with speed and efficiency has become essential for businesses to survive. But you try sitting down and going through all that data by hand: you'll get done sometime in the year 2050 if you're lucky.
That's where machine learning comes to the rescue. But…

Earlier this week, I was speaking at an event on AI for Real Estate where I showed an example from a BBC clip which said that “central London is now a ghost town” (due to COVID 19)
A few months ago, this headline would have been laughable
In London, central London and the London underground are a key fabric of daily…

Overview:
This post is about improving the effectiveness of the data science team and improving collaboration between data scientists and stakeholders for better outcomes.
Aligning goals:
Regardless of the specific project, agreeing on the expected outcomes and goals before beginning the work is a best practice. But with the advent of machine learning (ML) models, it’s for both sides to discuss the critical measures of success for the…
