1

Probability and Sampling Distributions

This chapter kicks the course off by reviewing conditional probabilities, Bayes' theorem, and central limit theorem. Along the way, you will learn how to handle questions that work with commonly referenced probability distributions.

Conditional probabilities

Setting up problems

Bayes' theorem applied

Central limit theorem

Samples from a rolled die

Simulating central limit theorem

Probability distributions

Bernoulli distribution

Binomial distribution

Normal distribution

2

Exploratory Data Analysis

In this chapter, you will prepare for statistical concepts related to exploratory data analysis. The topics include descriptive statistics, dealing with categorical variables, and relationships between variables. The exercises will prepare you for an analytical assessment or stats-based coding question.

Descriptive statistics

Mean or median

Standard deviation by hand

Categorical data

Encoding techniques

Exploring laptop prices

Two or more variables

Types of relationships

Pearson correlation

Sensitivity to outliers

3

Statistical Experiments and Significance Testing

Prepare to dive deeper into crucial concepts regarding experiments and testing by reviewing confidence intervals, hypothesis testing, multiple tests, and the role that power and sample size play. We'll also discuss types of errors, and what they mean in practice.

Confidence intervals

Confidence interval by hand

Applying confidence intervals

Hypothesis testing

One tailed z-test

Two tailed t-test

Power and sample size

Effect on type II error

Calculating sample size

Visualizing the relationship

Multiple testing

Calculating error rates

Bonferroni correction

4

Regression and Classification

Wrapping up, we'll address concepts related closely to regression and classification models. The chapter begins by reviewing fundamental machine learning algorithms and quickly ramps up to model evaluation, dealing with special cases, and the bias-variance tradeoff.

Regression models

Linear regression

Logistic regression

Evaluating models

Regression evaluation

Classification evaluation

Missing data and outliers

Handling null values

Identifying outliers

Bias-variance tradeoff

Test and training error

Visualizing the tradeoff
