Description

Data science and data modeling are fast emerging as crucial capabilities that every enterprise and every technologist must possess these days. Increasingly, different organizations are using the same models and the same modeling tools, so what differs is how those models are applied to the data. So, it is really important that you know your data well.

In this course, Summarizing Data and Deducing Probabilities, you will gain the ability to summarize your data using univariate, bivariate, and multivariate statistics in a range of technologies.

First, you will learn how measures of mean and central tendency can be calculated in Microsoft Excel and Python. Next, you will discover how to use correlations and covariances to explore pairwise relationships. You will then see how those constructs can be generalized to multiple variables using covariance and correlation matrices.

You will understand and apply Bayes' Theorem, one of the most powerful and widely-used results in probability, to build a robust classifier.

Finally, you will use Seaborn, a visualization library, to represent statistics visually.  

When you are finished with this course, you will have the skills and knowledge to use univariate, bivariate, and multivariate descriptive statistics from Excel and Python in order to find relationships and calculate probabilities.

Course Overview
[Autogenerated] Hi, My name is Jonny Robbie, and welcome to the scores on summarizing Gator and videos and probably a little about myself. I have a master's degree in electrical engineering from Stanford and have up at companies. Just Microsoft will on flip card at Google of us, one of the first engineers working on real time collaborative editing. Google Dogs and I hold four patterns for its underlying technologies. I currently work on my own startup unique on a studio for high quality video content. Get a science and data modelling are fast emerging as crucial capabilities that every enterprise and every technologist must possess species. Increasingly different organizations are using the same models on the same modelling tools. So what the first is how those models are applied to the data. So it's really important that you know your due date. In this course, you will gain the ability to some razor data using una varied by various and multi varied statistics in a range of technologies. First, you learn how measures of mean and central tendency can be calculated in Microsoft Excel and taipan. Next, you will discover how to use correlations and co variance is to explore the advice relationships you will then see. Those constructs can be generalized to multiple variables using co variance and correlation matrices. Then you will understand and apply based here one of the most powerful and widely used results in probability to build a robust classifier. Finally, you will use see bond of visualization likely to represent statistics vision. When you finish with this course, he will have the skills and knowledge to use, you know, very advi very and multi varied descriptive statistics from excellent iPhone in order to find relationships and calculate probabilities.
