Some useful PYTHON libraries for data science
NumPy stands for Numerical Python. The most powerful feature of NumPy is n-dimensional array. This library also contains basic linear algebra functions, Fourier transforms, advanced random number capabilities and tools for integration with other low level languages like Fortran, C and C++
SciPy stands for Scientific Python. SciPy is built on NumPy. It is one of the most useful library for variety of high level science and engineering modules like discrete Fourier transform, Linear Algebra, Optimization and Sparse matrices.
Matplotlib for plotting vast variety of graphs, starting from histograms to line plots to heat plots.. You can use Pylab feature in ipython notebook (ipython notebook โpylab = inline) to use these plotting features inline. If you ignore the inline option, then pylab converts ipython environment to an environment, very similar to Matlab. You can also use Latex commands to add math to your plot.
Pandas for structured data operations and manipulations. It is extensively used for data munging and preparation. Pandas were added relatively recently to Python and have been instrumental in boosting Pythonโs usage in data scientist community.
Scikit Learn for machine learning. Built on NumPy, SciPy and matplotlib, this library contains a lot of efficient tools for machine learning and statistical modeling including classification, regression, clustering and dimensionality reduction.
Statsmodels for statistical modeling. Statsmodels is a Python module that allows users to explore data, estimate statistical models, and perform statistical tests. An extensive list of descriptive statistics, statistical tests, plotting functions, and result statistics are available for different types of data and each estimator.
Seaborn for statistical data visualization. Seaborn is a library for making attractive and informative statistical graphics in Python. It is based on matplotlib. Seaborn aims to make visualization a central part of exploring and understanding data.
Bokeh for creating interactive plots, dashboards and data applications on modern web-browsers. It empowers the user to generate elegant and concise graphics in the style of D3.js. Moreover, it has the capability of high-performance interactivity over very large or streaming datasets.
Blaze for extending the capability of Numpy and Pandas to distributed and streaming datasets. It can be used to access data from a multitude of sources including Bcolz, MongoDB, SQLAlchemy, Apache Spark, PyTables, etc. Together with Bokeh, Blaze can act as a very powerful tool for creating effective visualizations and dashboards on huge chunks of data.
Scrapy for web crawling. It is a very useful framework for getting specific patterns of data. It has the capability to start at a website home url and then dig through web-pages within the website to gather information.
SymPy for symbolic computation. It has wide-ranging capabilities from basic symbolic arithmetic to calculus, algebra, discrete mathematics and quantum physics. Another useful feature is the capability of formatting the result of the computations as LaTeX code.
Requests for accessing the web. It works similar to the the standard python library urllib2 but is much easier to code. You will find subtle differences with urllib2 but for beginners, Requests might be more convenient.
Additional libraries, you might need:
os for Operating system and file operations
networkx and igraph for graph based data manipulations
regular expressions for finding patterns in text data
BeautifulSoup for scrapping web. It is inferior to Scrapy as it will extract information from just a single webpage in a run.
NumPy stands for Numerical Python. The most powerful feature of NumPy is n-dimensional array. This library also contains basic linear algebra functions, Fourier transforms, advanced random number capabilities and tools for integration with other low level languages like Fortran, C and C++

Data Science Interview Questions With Answers
Whatโs the difference between random forest and gradient boosting?
Random Forests builds each tree independently while Gradient Boosting builds one tree at a time.
Random Forests combine results at the end of the process (by averaging or "majority rules") while Gradient Boosting combines results along the way.
What happens to our linear regression model if we have three columns in our data: x, y, z โโโ and z is a sum of x and y?
We would not be able to perform the regression. Because z is linearly dependent on x and y so when performing the regression would be a singular (not invertible) matrix.
How does L2 regularization look like in a linear model?
L2 regularization adds a penalty term to our cost function which is equal to the sum of squares of models coefficients multiplied by a lambda hyperparameter.
This technique makes sure that the coefficients are close to zero and is widely used in cases when we have a lot of features that might correlate with each other.
What are the main parameters in the gradient boosting model?
There are many parameters, but below are a few key defaults.
learning_rate=0.1 (shrinkage).
n_estimators=100 (number of trees).
max_depth=3.
min_samples_split=2.
min_samples_leaf=1.
subsample=1.0.
What are the main parameters of the random forest model?
max_depth: Longest Path between root node and the leaf
min_sample_split: The minimum number of observations needed to split a given node
max_leaf_nodes: Conditions the splitting of the tree and hence, limits the growth of the trees
min_samples_leaf: minimum number of samples in the leaf node
n_estimators: Number of trees
max_sample: Fraction of original dataset given to any individual tree in the given model
max_features: Limits the maximum number of features provided to trees in random forest model
Quiz Explaination
Supervised Learning: All data is labeled and the algorithms learn to predict the output from the
input data
Unsupervised Learning: All data is unlabeled and the algorithms learn to inherent structure from
the input data.
Semi-supervised Learning: Some data is labeled but most of it is unlabeled and a mixture of
supervised and unsupervised techniques can be used to solve problem.
Unsupervised learning problems can be further grouped into clustering and association problems.
Clustering: A clustering problem is where you want to discover the inherent groupings
in the data, such as grouping customers by purchasing behavior.
Association: An association rule learning problem is where you want to discover rules
that describe large portions of your data, such as people that buy A also tend to buy B.
What is feature selection? Why do we need it?
Feature Selection is a method used to select the relevant features for the model to train on. We need feature selection to remove the irrelevant features which leads the model to under-perform.
What are the decision trees?
This is a type of supervised learning algorithm that is mostly used for classification problems. Surprisingly, it works for both categorical and continuous dependent variables.
In this algorithm, we split the population into two or more homogeneous sets. This is done based on most significant attributes/ independent variables to make as distinct groups as possible.
A decision tree is a flowchart-like tree structure, where each internal node (non-leaf node) denotes a test on an attribute, each branch represents an outcome of the test, and each leaf node (or terminal node) holds a value for the target variable.
Various techniques : like Gini, Information Gain, Chi-square, entropy.
What are the benefits of a single decision tree compared to more complex models?
easy to implement
fast training
fast inference
good explainability

What happens to our linear regression model if we have three columns in our data: x, y, z โโโ and z is a sum of x and y?
We would not be able to perform the regression. Because z is linearly dependent on x and y so when performing the regression would be a singular (not invertible) matrix.
How does L2 regularization look like in a linear model?
L2 regularization adds a penalty term to our cost function which is equal to the sum of squares of models coefficients multiplied by a lambda hyperparameter.
This technique makes sure that the coefficients are close to zero and is widely used in cases when we have a lot of features that might correlate with each other.
What are the main parameters in the gradient boosting model?
There are many parameters, but below are a few key defaults.
learning_rate=0.1 (shrinkage).
n_estimators=100 (number of trees).
max_depth=3.
min_samples_split=2.
min_samples_leaf=1.
subsample=1.0.
What are the main parameters of the random forest model?
max_depth: Longest Path between root node and the leaf
min_sample_split: The minimum number of observations needed to split a given node
max_leaf_nodes: Conditions the splitting of the tree and hence, limits the growth of the trees
min_samples_leaf: minimum number of samples in the leaf node
n_estimators: Number of trees
max_sample: Fraction of original dataset given to any individual tree in the given model
max_features: Limits the maximum number of features provided to trees in random forest model
Quiz Explaination
Supervised Learning: All data is labeled and the algorithms learn to predict the output from the
input data
Unsupervised Learning: All data is unlabeled and the algorithms learn to inherent structure from
the input data.
Semi-supervised Learning: Some data is labeled but most of it is unlabeled and a mixture of
supervised and unsupervised techniques can be used to solve problem.
Unsupervised learning problems can be further grouped into clustering and association problems.
Clustering: A clustering problem is where you want to discover the inherent groupings
in the data, such as grouping customers by purchasing behavior.
Association: An association rule learning problem is where you want to discover rules
that describe large portions of your data, such as people that buy A also tend to buy B.
What is feature selection? Why do we need it?
Feature Selection is a method used to select the relevant features for the model to train on. We need feature selection to remove the irrelevant features which leads the model to under-perform.
What are the decision trees?
This is a type of supervised learning algorithm that is mostly used for classification problems. Surprisingly, it works for both categorical and continuous dependent variables.
In this algorithm, we split the population into two or more homogeneous sets. This is done based on most significant attributes/ independent variables to make as distinct groups as possible.
A decision tree is a flowchart-like tree structure, where each internal node (non-leaf node) denotes a test on an attribute, each branch represents an outcome of the test, and each leaf node (or terminal node) holds a value for the target variable.
Various techniques : like Gini, Information Gain, Chi-square, entropy.
What are the benefits of a single decision tree compared to more complex models?
easy to implement
fast training
fast inference
good explainability
