Description

1. Introduction

In this course, we will explore the fundamentals of data analysis and visualization using Python. We'll cover various aspects from data preprocessing to advanced visualization techniques, and finally delve into predictive modeling and analysis. Let's break down the course outline:

2. Data Preprocessing

  • Import Libraries: We'll start by importing essential libraries such as Pandas, NumPy, and Matplotlib/Seaborn for data manipulation and visualization.
  • Data Preprocessing: Understanding the importance of data preprocessing, we'll cover techniques such as handling missing values, data normalization, and encoding categorical variables.

3. Data Visualization

  • Piechart: Learn to create pie charts to represent the distribution of categorical data.
  • Histogram: Understand how to create histograms to visualize the distribution of numerical data.
  • Violinplot: Dive into violin plots for visualizing the distribution of numerical data across different categories.
  • Distribution Plot Analysis: Explore distribution plots for detailed analysis of data distribution and characteristics.
  • Pairplot and Gender Data Analysis: Utilize pair plots for pairwise relationships in the dataset, and perform gender-based data analysis.
  • Male Data Analysis: Continue analyzing the dataset focusing on male-specific insights.
  • Male Data Analysis Continued: Further exploration and analysis of male-specific data.

4. Heatmap and Correlation Analysis

  • Heatmap: Learn to create heatmaps to visualize correlation matrices and identify relationships between variables.
  • Correlation Analysis: Understand how to analyze correlations between variables and interpret their significance.

5. Modeling

  • Cluster Prediction: Introduction to clustering techniques such as K-means clustering for segmenting data into meaningful clusters.
  • Shopping Analysis: Apply clustering techniques to analyze shopping patterns and segment customers based on their purchasing behavior.

Course Structure and Methodology:

The course will be structured around a combination of lectures, hands-on coding sessions, and practical exercises. Each section will begin with a brief theoretical overview followed by practical demonstrations using Python code snippets. Participants will be encouraged to follow along and apply the concepts learned to real-world datasets. Additionally, assignments and projects will be provided to reinforce learning and assess comprehension.

Prerequisites:

Basic understanding of Python programming language and familiarity with concepts of data types, variables, and conditional statements would be beneficial. No prior experience with data analysis or visualization is required.

By the end of this course, participants will have a solid foundation in data analysis and visualization techniques using Python, along with the ability to apply these skills to real-world datasets for deriving valuable insights and making data-driven decisions.

Requirements

  • Basic linear algebra (vectors, transpose, matrices, matrix multiplication, inverses, determinants, linear spaces)

  • Basic probability and statistics (mean, covariance matrices, normal distributions)

  • Python 3 programming

Target Audience

  • Scientists, engineers, and programmers and others interested in machine learning/data science

  • No prior experience with machine learning is needed
