Practical Statistics for Data Scientists: 50 Essential Concepts

Buy

Statistical methods are a key part of of data science, yet very few data scientists have any formal statistics training. Courses and books on basic statistics rarely cover the topic from a data science perspective. This practical guide explains how to apply various statistical methods to data science, tells you how to avoid their misuse, and gives you advice on what's important and what's not.

Many data science resources incorporate statistical methods but lack a deeper statistical perspective. If you’re familiar with the R programming language, and have some exposure to statistics, this quick reference bridges the gap in an accessible, readable format.

With this book, you’ll learn:

  • Why exploratory data analysis is a key preliminary step in data science
  • How random sampling can reduce bias and yield a higher quality dataset, even with big data
  • How the principles of experimental design yield definitive answers to questions
  • How to use regression to estimate outcomes and detect anomalies
  • Key classification techniques for predicting which categories a record belongs to
  • Statistical machine learning methods that “learn” from data
  • Unsupervised learning methods for extracting meaning from unlabeled data

Automatic Quantum Computer Programming: A Genetic Programming Approach
Automatic Quantum Computer Programming: A Genetic Programming Approach
This is a book about the frontiers of computer science that have recently
been opened by work in quantum mechanics, but it is also a book
about the use of recently developed automatic programming technologies
to explore those frontiers. The automatic programming technologies

Neural Networks: Algorithms, Applications, and Programming Techniques
Neural Networks: Algorithms, Applications, and Programming Techniques
The book explains and deduces mathematically the working principle of many architectures, and presents commented examples (good ones) in structured English (very similar to Pascal). I used it as the basis for many NN's and felt quite satisfied in all cases.

Computational Intelligence in Telecommunications Networks

Telecommunications has evolved and grown at an explosive rate in recent years and will undoubtedly continue to do so. As its functions, applications, and technology grow, it becomes increasingly complex and difficult, if not impossible, to meet the demands of a global network using conventional computing technologies. Computational...
