summary

  • Libraries usually contain built-in modules that provide different functionalities.

  • You can use data visualization methods to communicate with others and display meaningful results of an analysis. 

  • For machine learning, the Scikit-learn library contains tools for statistical modeling, including regression, classification, clustering, and so on.

  • Large-scale production of deep-learning models use TensorFlow, a low-level framework. 

  • Apache Spark is a general-purpose cluster-computing framework that allows you to process data using compute clusters.

  • An application programming interface (API) allows communication between two pieces of software.

  • API is the part of the library you see while the library contains all the components of the program. 

  • REST APIs allow you to communicate through the internet and take advantage of resources like storage, data, artificially intelligent algorithms, and much more.

  • Open data is fundamental to Data Science.

  • Community Data License Agreement makes it easier to share open data.

  • The IBM Data Asset eXchange (DAX) site contains high-quality open data sets.

  • DAX open data sets include tutorial notebooks that provide basic and advanced walk-throughs for developers.

  • DAX notebooks open in Watson Studio.

  • Machine learning (ML) uses algorithms – also known as “models” – to identify patterns in the data. 

  • Types of ML are Supervised, Unsupervised, and Reinforcement. 

  • Supervised learning comprises two types of models, regression and classification.

  • Deep learning refers to a general set of models and techniques that loosely emulate the way the human brain solves a wide range of problems.

  • The Model Asset eXchange is a free, open-source repository for ready-to-use and customizable deep-learning microservices.

  • MAX model-serving microservices are built and distributed on GitHub as open-source Docker images.

  • You can use Red Hat OpenShift, a Kubernetes platform, to automate deployment, scaling, and management of microservices.

  • Ml-exchange.org has multiple predefined models.

Notes on Hiring for Data Science Teams

-
  Unicorn Myth in Hiring: Companies often seek individuals with a myriad of skills for data science roles. Ideal candidates possess domain-specific knowledge, excel in data analysis, and have strong presentation and storytelling skills. However, finding such a "unicorn" is rare, and the focus should shift to other essential qualities. Resonance with Company DNA: The key is to identify applicants who resonate with the company's values and business domain. While analytics skills can be taught, passion for the business is intrinsic and contributes significantly to productivity. Curiosity Matters: Curiosity is a top priority in hiring for a data science team. Candidates should demonstrate a broad curiosity, showing interest in various aspects of their surroundings beyond just data science. Sense of Humor: A lighthearted approach is crucial, as being too serious may hinder collaboration and creativity. A sense of humor aids in navigating challenges and fosters a positive work ...

switch functions

-
  Nested IF Function : The  nested IF  function allows you to perform tests with multiple conditions and return different values based on the results of those tests. It is called “nested” because one IF function is embedded inside another IF function. Syntax of a generic nested IF formula: =IF(condition1, result1, IF(condition2, result2, IF(condition3, result3, result4) ) ) Each subsequent IF function is embedded into the  value_if_false  argument of the previous function. SWITCH Function : The  SWITCH  function is a more compact alternative to nested IF statements. It compares an expression against a list of values and returns the result according to the first matching value. Syntax of the SWITCH function: =SWITCH(expression, value1, result1, [default or value2, result2], ... [default or valueN, resultN]) It has four arguments: expression : The value to compare against the list of values. valueN : A value com...
