Notes

Predictive Analysis

Use lots of data + machine learning to draw predictions!

• ex: predict what items will be popular to start a marketing campaign
• ex: Find a way to break the chain of transmission for a disease outbreak

There are steps!

• Find a problem + source of data
• Get + refine data
• Find patterns
• Get algorithm/model
• Train the model
• Make predictions based on model
• Refine model over time

NumPy

Good for computations in python. Can focus on analyzing data.

Template Preservation

import numpy as np
a = np.array([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27], ndmin=3)

print(a)

Dimensions seem to be denoted by each set of brackets…
