Statystyka praktyczna w data science. 50 kluczowych zagadnień w językach R i Python. Wydanie II
Peter Bruce, Andrew Bruce, Peter Gedeck
Metody statystyczne są kluczowym narzędziem w data science, mimo to niewielu analityków danych zdobyło wykształcenie w ich zakresie. Może im to utrudniać uzyskiwanie dobrych efektów. Zrozumienie praktycznych zasad statystyki okazuje się ważne również dla programistów R i Pythona, którzy tworzą rozwiązania dla data science. Kursy podstaw statystyki rzadko jednak uwzględniają tę perspektywę, a większość podręczników do statystyki w ogóle nie zajmuje się narzędziami wywodzącymi się z informatyki. To drugie wydanie popularnego podręcznika statystyki przeznaczonego dla analityków danych. Uzupełniono je o obszerne przykłady w Pythonie oraz wyjaśnienie, jak stosować poszczególne metody statystyczne w problemach data science, a także jak ich nie używać. Skoncentrowano się też na tych zagadnieniach statystyki, które odgrywają istotną rolę w data science. Wyjaśniono, które koncepcje są ważne i przydatne z tej perspektywy, a które mniej istotne i dlaczego. Co ważne, poszczególne koncepcje i zagadnienia praktyczne przedstawiono w sposób przyswajalny i zrozumiały również dla osób nienawykłych do posługiwania się statystyką na co dzień. W książce między innymi: analiza eksploracyjna we wstępnym badaniu danych próby losowe a jakość dużych zbiorów danych podstawy planowania eksperymentów regresja w szacowaniu wyników i wykrywaniu anomalii statystyczne uczenie maszynowe uczenie nienadzorowane a znaczenie danych niesklasyfikowanych Statystyka: klasyczne narzędzia w najnowszych technologiach!
Storytelling danych. Poradnik wizualizacji danych dla profesjonalistów
Cole Nussbaumer Knaflic
Rozwój technologiczny nie tylko zwiększył ilość i dostępność danych, ale również zaowocował wszechobecnością narzędzi do ich obróbki i prezentacji. W zasadzie każdy może tworzyć diagramy i prezentacje. Aby przykuć uwagę odbiorcy i przekazać mu informację zawartą w zbiorze danych, sama wiedza techniczna nie wystarczy. Problem wynika z tego, że większość ludzi nie ma naturalnej umiejętności przekładania danych na interesujące historie. Tego się po prostu trzeba nauczyć. Dopiero wtedy można mówić o skutecznym przekazie. Ta książka jest przewodnikiem dla każdego, kto musi przekazywać informacje, robiąc przy tym użytek z danych. Szczególnie wartościowa będzie dla analityków, studentów i naukowców, a także dla każdego, kto w swojej komunikacji odwołuje się do danych. Pokazano tu prostą i intuicyjną technikę przedstawiania historii przy użyciu danych w sześciu krokach („lekcjach”). Skuteczność tej metody potwierdzono wieloma przykładami zaczerpniętymi z przeróżnych branż. Poszczególne procesy zaprezentowano za pomocą instrukcji „krok po kroku”, opisano także tok rozumowania podczas realizacji projektu graficznej wizualizacji danych. Przy tym wszystkim zawarte w książce praktyczne wskazówki są gotowe do natychmiastowego zastosowania. Sześć kluczowych lekcji skutecznej komunikacji wizualnej: Zrozumienie kontekstu. Wybór odpowiedniego wykresu. Eliminacja śmieci. Kierowanie uwagą odbiorców. Myślenie niczym projektant. Przedstawianie historii. Dane nadają sens prezentacji!

Aileen Nielsen
Analiza szeregów czasowych zyskuje na znaczeniu. Wraz z postępującą digitalizacją danych służby zdrowia, rozwojem inteligentnych miast czy upowszechniającym się internetem rzeczy staje się coraz bardziej potrzebna. Obiecującym rozwiązaniem jest analiza szeregów czasowych metodami wspomaganymi uczeniem maszynowym. Techniki te umożliwiają skuteczne monitorowanie i wykorzystywanie coraz większych zbiorów danych. Być może ich zastosowanie do pracy z szeregami czasowymi wydaje się nieoczywiste, jednak bez analiz szeregów czasowych nie można w pełni wykorzystać zebranych danych. Ta książka jest szerokim, aktualnym i praktycznym przeglądem metod analizy szeregów czasowych, w którym ujęto pełny potok przetwarzania danych czasowych i modelowania. Zaprezentowano w niej rzeczywiste przypadki użycia tych metod i zilustrowano je obszernymi fragmentami znakomicie zaprojektowanego kodu w językach R i Python. Znalazły się tutaj praktyczne wskazówki ułatwiające rozwiązywanie najczęstszych problemów występujących w inżynierii danych czasowych i ich analizie. Ujęto tu zarówno konwencjonalne metody statystyczne, jak i nowoczesne techniki uczenia maszynowego. To bardzo przydatny przewodnik, dzięki któremu analitycy danych, inżynierowie oprogramowania i naukowcy będą mogli płynnie przejść od podstaw pracy z szeregami czasowymi do rozwiązywania konkretnych zagadnień na profesjonalnym poziomie. Dzięki tej książce nauczysz się: pozyskiwać, przechowywać i przetwarzać szeregi czasowe eksplorować dane czasowe i symulować je wykonywać pomiary błędów pracować z szeregami czasowymi za pomocą uczenia maszynowego lub uczenia głębokiego oceniać dokładność i wydajność modeli Skutecznie analizuj szeregi czasowe i wydobywaj bezcenną wiedzę!
