Introduction to Jupyter and libraries

What is jupyter?

Jupyter is the short form of Julia, Python, and R. It's open-source software that creates interactive notebook documents containing live code, equations, visualizations, media, and other computational outputs. Moreover, it supports more than 40 languages as of now.

What is pandas?

Pandas is an open-source Python library. It has functions for analyzing, cleaning, exploring, and manipulating data. Pandas has two types of data structures: 

a) Series -It's a one-dimensional array with indexes, it stores a single column or row of data in a Data Frame.

b) Data Frame - It's a tabular spreadsheet-like structure representing rows containing one or multiple columns.

Why use pandas?

Pandas allow us to analyze big data and make conclusions based on statistical theories. Pandas can clean messy data sets and make them readable and relevant. The process of cleaning messy data is called data munging or data wrangling.

 

Data Frame:
It represents data using rows and columns (tabular or Excel spreadsheet-like data).
                       


What is Matplotlib?
It is a library in Python that helps in data visualization.
1. What is data visualization?
It is a graphical representation of information and data. Visual elements like charts, graphs and maps provide an easy way to see and understand the trends, outliers and patterns in data.

What is Scikit-Learn?
It is an open-source library in Python. It is also known as the father of ML in Python programming. It is one of the core libraries in Python because without this library it would be very difficult for us to manually implement ML algorithms. Along with scikit-learn, we use a few libraries such as
1. Pandas  2. Numpy  3. Matplotlib  4.Scipy

Basics of AI

What is Artificial Intelligence? Artificial intelligence (AI)  is the theory and development of computer systems capable of performing tasks that historically required human intelligence, such as recognizing speech, making decisions, and identifying patterns. AI is an umbrella term that encompasses a wide variety of technologies, including machine learning, deep learning,  and natural language processing (NLPs) .  What is Natural Language Processing? What it does : NLP is like teaching computers to understand and talk like humans. It helps computers understand what we say or write and respond in a way that makes sense. Example : When you ask Siri a question and she understands what you mean, that's NLP at work. It's also used for things like translating languages or checking grammar in text. What is Machine learning? What it does : ML is like teaching computers to learn from examples and make decisions on their own. It's about training computers to recognize patterns in dat

Types of ML

  Types of Machine Learning 1. Supervised learning: Learning from Examples : Imagine you're a teacher helping a student learn to recognize different animals. You show the students pictures of animals and tell them the name of each animal in the picture. The student learns by looking at the pictures and listening to your labels. Labeled Data: In machine learning, the pictures are called "data," and the names of the animals are called "labels." Together, they make "labeled data." Training a Model: The student is like the machine learning model. During the "training" phase, the model looks at the data (pictures) and the labels (animal names) to understand the relationship between them. Making Predictions: After learning from many examples, the model can look at a new picture (one it hasn't seen before) and guess the animal's name. This guessing is called "making predictions." Improvement Over Time: Just like the student gets b

Basics of Neural networks

  Neural networks  Imagine a group of people who have never seen " KOALA" (an animal) in their life!!! So now our job is to teach them if any image is of "KOALA" or not.... We create a team and ask each and every student to work and study each feature of the koala, such as Mike can work on detecting eyes, Jyoti works on forelimbs, Chen can work on hindlimbs, and Mohan can work on the nose. So they make assumptions by using a score of 0 to 1. For example, where 0 means definitely not Koala's eyes, 0.5 means maybe or maybe not Koala's eyes and 1 means definitely Koala's eyes. Then Serena, their superior notes down their observations and based on a formula tells us finally if an animal is a Koala or not.   This is nothing but a neural network. Each individual person here is an individual neuron. They're working on a particular subtask and pass the result of their subtask to the next group. Here, Serena and Nidhi are the hidden layer, Mike, Mohan, etc fo
