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 johnny ravi and welcome to this course on summarizing data and reducing probabilities a little about myself. I have a master's degree in electrical engineering from stanford and have worked at companies such as Microsoft google and flip card at google. I was one of the first engineers working on real time collaborative everything in google docs and I hold four patterns for its underlying technologies. I currently work on my own startup, Loonycorn a studio for high quality video content, 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 the first is how those models are applied to the data. So it's really important that you know your data back in this course you will gain the ability to summarize your data using you know, various 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 python. Next you will discover how to use correlations and co variances to explore pair of eyes 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 Seaborn a visualization library to represent statistics vision. When you're finished with this course you will have the skills and knowledge to use you know various by various and multi various descriptive statistics from excellent python in order to find relationships and calculate probabilities. Yeah.
