How to be expert in Machine Learning

One should know how to play with data

First of all the main thing, we need to be focused on before stepping into machine learning is that we should know how to play with data. Because believe all the geeks sitting out there doing machine learning and other cool stuff is all because they know how to play with data.

Note: Hereby playing with data means is you should know how to manipulate the data or reshape the data into something that model can understand and make sense from it and able to predict the new value.

So what one fresher or maybe who know something but not pro should need for playing with data is only some tools like

Pandas — For Python

By pandas, one can do anything that he/she can do with data. literally anything.

Applying ML Models

After you need the data you wanted to feed the model you will have to do only 2% of the work you did for reshaping the data. Because now you have to use 2 golden words of machine learning FP

.Fit()

.Predict()

It will be going to some for any model you use just import and use these two functions for train and predict.

So to become an ML expert you need to know data manipulation only rest is just 2 golden words.

DBSCAN Clustering Algorithm-with maths

DBSCAN is a short-form of D ensity- B ased S patial C lustering of A pplications with N oise. It is an unsupervised algorithm that will take the set of points and make them into some sets which have the same properties. It is based on the density-based clustering and it will mark the outliers also which do not lie in any of the cluster or set. There are some terms that we need to know before we proceed further for algorithm: Density Reachability A point “p” is said to be density reachable from a point “q” if point “p” is within ε distance from point “q” and “q” has a sufficient number of points in its neighbors which are within distance ε. Density Connectivity A point “p” and “q” are said to be density connected if there exists a point “r” which has a sufficient number of points in its neighbors and both the points “p” and “q” is within the ε distance. This is a chaining process. So, if “q” is neighbor of “r”, “r” is neighbor of “s”, “s” ...

Airflow for Beginners — II

As in the previous article Airflow for beginners — I we learn about the airflow and how to install the airflow on local. In this article, we will learn about the DAG and how to use the web airflow for scheduling the work and managing it. Let’s start with the DAG and then we will learn about the web airflow. DAG (Directed Acyclic Graph) DAG is a directed graph without a cycle in it. It has a finite number of edges and nodes. In which we can know which thing(node) will come first and we will know the sequence of the nodes. so just think as each node is a work( that you want to execute ) so we can represent the sequencing of the work by the DAG and that’s why DAG is an essential part of the airflow. WEB AIRFLOW So now as you saw that on localhost:8080 if you open it will look like: now, these are the example DAG or work that is added already so for adding your own script(DAG) just follow simple steps mentioned below: Just go to the airflow directory in terminal (it wil...

How to be a HERO in Machine Learning/Data Science Competitions

At present to master machine learning models one has to participate in the competition which is appearing in various platforms. So how somebody who is new to ml can become a hero from zero . The guideline is in this article. The idea for this is not too hard. Just patience and some hard work are required. I will take an example of a Competition that is just finished within top 10. So the competition generally gives you the problem in which some of the features are hidden because they want you to explore the data and come up with the feature that explains the target value. By exploring I mean to say the few things: Look at the data. Get the sense of the data. Find the correlation of all features with a target value. Try new features made up of existing features. Exploration needs some cleaning of the data also. Because in general, the host will add the noise into the data so that it becomes a trouble for us to achieve good accuracy. By cleaning I...
