Data 622 Assignment 1
Assignment Introduction This assignment focuses on one of the most important aspects of data science, Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA). Many surveys show that data scientists spend 60-80% of their time on data preparation. EDA allows you to identify data gaps & data imbalances, improve data quality, create better features and gain a deep understand...

Data 621 Blog 5
Introduction In this blog, I will demonstrate how to use the random forest model to predict the species of iris flowers in the popular ‘Iris’ dataset. Random forest is a machine learning algorithm that constructs multiple decision trees and combines their outputs to improve accuracy and reduce overfitting. Load Packages We will use the ra...

Introduction In this blog, I will demonstrate how to use the hypergeometric distribution for hypothesis testing. Hypergeometric distribution is a probability distribution which describes the probability of success K after n draws without replacement from a fixed population N. Below, the probability mass function will provide the probability of ...

Data 621 Blog 3
Introduction In this blog, I aim to explore when to use Zero-Inflated Poisson (ZIP) and Zero-Inflated Negative Binomial (ZINB) models. More specifically, I will outline the steps involved in determining which of these models provides the best fit for a given dataset. The data used in this blog comes from the AER package which includes a datase...
