    Why is becoming a data scientist so difficult?

    Becoming a data scientist is not so difficult as questioned by many students. Candidates who have skills in working on the tools and techniques of data science are vital to become a data scientist. Equipping yourself with the technical skills along with statistics and applied mathematics helps you to prosper in career as a data scientist.

    A person should have hands-on experience in the tools and programming languages like R or Python which are widely used by data scientists. An aspiring data scientist would have thorough practical knowledge about the functionality of the tools and methods used. In recent days, numerous online platforms offer data science courses, but could not convert learners to data scientists due to lack of continued guidance and personal training.

    What are the challenges about getting a data scientist job if data science is in demand?

    Competency is a keyword to be kept in mind if you wish to be hired as a data scientist. With the increasing demand for data scientists, companies are in search of candidates with exceptional skills in data science.

    A data scientist should have sound analytical skills, technical skills to perform tasks using various tools and techniques, programming ability, knowledge in statistics and understanding of the business.Many aspiring data scientists, fail to understand the requirements of the industry due to the numerous guidance they receive from various sources, which provides superficial knowledge about Data Science.

    In short, Data Scientist is a person who finds the important aspects of data using math and statistics skills, correlates and finds the linkage between different sets of data, develop models with the data using programming languages like Python or R and provide valuable business insights or strategies for the company. Possessing exceptional knowledge in statistics without sufficient programming skills or a clear understanding of the business leads nowhere close to becoming a data scientist. One must possess hands-on experience in the tools used in the field of Data Science. Arriving at vital findings from data for developing business strategies using the data science tools and technique makes an authentic data scientist.

    What are the differences between Data scientist vs Data Analyst vs data engineer?

    Data science has become the most prominent word in recruitment sites due to its demand in various organizations around the world. You could have noticed various designations like Data Scientists, Data Analyst, Data Engineer, and various other terms also. Some people tend to think that these terms are synonymous and use them interchangeably. Although, all the three roles involve the usage of data, let us discuss the differences among Data Scientist, Data Analyst and Data Engineer.

    The key difference lies in the various tasks they perform using the data.

    Data Analyst: Data Analysts add value to the organization by utilizing the data to answer questions and arrive at better solutions for business problems. This is the role predominantly given to entry-level-professionals in the Data Science field. The common tasks of a Data Analyst consist of data cleaning, creating visualizations of the findings thereby helping the company to make better data-driven decisions.

    Data Scientist:  Data Scientists use their expertise in statistics and develop Machine Learning models to make predictive analysis and answer vital business problems. Data scientists unfold business insights from the data using supervised or unsupervised learning methods in their ML models. Data scientists train their mathematical models for better identification of patterns to predict the trends of business accurately. The key difference between a Data Analyst and Data Scientist is that Data scientist provides a whole new approach of understanding data and builds models for new questions whereas a Data Analyst analyses recent trends using the data and converts the results for key business decisions.

    Data Engineer: Data Engineers help in optimization of the systems, allowing data scientists and analysts to perform their task. The task of a data engineer is to make sure data is properly collected, stored and made available to its users. Data engineers should possess strong technical knowledge for the creation and integration of API (Application Program Interface) and help in the maintenance of the data infrastructure.

You may also examine whether there is a correlation between product pricing and sales volume using regression analysis.
    • Create Models: After analyzing the data, you can create a model. For example, you can build a decision tree to classify customers into groups.
    • Test models: Finally, you can test the accuracy of your model by comparing its predictions against actual outcomes. This helps you identify areas where your model needs improvement.
    • Evaluate results: Once you have tested your model, you can evaluate its performance. If the model performs well, you can deploy it in production. Otherwise, you can modify it until it meets your requirements.
    • Deploy Model: When you have created an effective model, you can deploy it on a server or cloud service.
    • Monitor Results: To monitor the performance of your model, you can collect metrics such as response times and error rates. These metrics help you understand how your model is performing.
    • Improve Model: If your model isn’t performing well, you can improve it using machine learning techniques.
    • Repeat Steps 1-9: In this way, you can continuously refine your model until it achieves optimal performance.

    A complete overview of the various aspects of Data Science will be provided in this Data science Tutorial. You can learn about the Data Science process, using tools like R and Python.

    Data Science Components

    • Statistics- Statistics is one of the core concepts of data science. It involves finding patterns in large amounts of data.

    There are two types of statistics:

    • Descriptive
    • Inferential

    Descriptive statistics describe the characteristics of a population while inferential statistics infer relationships between variables.

    Descriptive statistics include mean, median, mode, standard deviation, skewness, kurtosis, etc.

    Inferential statistics includes correlation, regression, classification, clustering, principal component analysis (PCA), factor analysis, etc.

    • Visualization- Data visualization is another important concept of data science. It allows us to see our data in new ways.

    We can visualize data through charts, graphs, maps, tables, etc. There is a plethora of tools available online that gives us the ability to visualize data. Some of them are listed below:

    • Tableau Software – A business intelligence tool used to analyze data.
    • Microsoft Power BI- An easy-to-use business analytics platform.
    • Google Fusion Tables- Allows users to upload their own datasets and visualize them.
    • Machine Learning- Machine learning is all about training computers to learn from experience.

    It is based on three main components:

    • Algorithms- The algorithms we use to train machines.
    • Datasets- The data sets we feed into the algorithm.
    • Metrics- How we measure the success of the algorithm.

    The process of developing a machine learning algorithm starts with defining what problem we want to solve. Then, we define the features of the dataset. We need to select appropriate algorithms and choose suitable metrics.

    Once we have defined these things, we can write code to implement the solution.

    Machine Learning experienced professionals will guide you through the best data science training in Chennai to help you learn the process and the skills that are required to be a data scientist.

    • Deep Learning- Deep learning is a subset of machine learning.

    In deep learning, we try to build computer programs that mimic human brain functions.

    These programs are called artificial neural networks. They consist of multiple layers of neurons. Every neuron is connected to other neurons and acts as a relay station for passing information between them. Neurons also receive feedback from other neurons. This forms connections between neurons. Artificial neural networks are trained using backpropagation. Backpropagation helps us identify which parts of the network should be changed so that they perform better. The ultimate goal of this Data science course in Chennai is to provide you with the ability to create, interpret, and communicate your own ideas.

    Data Science Interview Questions and Answers

    Finding a data science job can be challenging, whether you’re a recent graduate or a seasoned professional. We’ve compiled a list of common data science interview questions and answers to help you prepare for your next data science interview.

    From questions about statistical methods to machine learning, our list covers a range of topics that are essential for any data scientist. If you’re just starting out or want to take your career to the next level with our data science course in Chennai, this list is a great resource for preparing for your next data science interview.

    1. Can you explain what Data Science means?

    • Data science is the study of gathering, managing, storing, retrieving, processing, analysing, interpreting, presenting, and spreading large amounts of information.
    • The study of data is an area that draws from many disciplines that uses knowledge from statistics, computer science, mathematics, engineering, economics, and other fields to make sense of raw data.
    • A process where we use different statistical methods like regression, classification, clustering, principal component analysis, etc. to analyze the collected data.
    • A set of skills used to solve problems involving extracting meaningful insights from big data sets.
    • A mix of many fields, such as statistics, computer science, math, engineering, and others.
    • A method of analyzing data using computers and software to discover hidden trends and patterns.

    Data science is a rapidly growing field. Companies are increasingly collecting data, and they need skilled workers to help them make sense of it all. In case you are interested in a career in data science, now is the time to get started with our data science course in Chennai in order to get you started on the path to success.

    2. Why is data analytics different from data science?

    • Data Analytics: It’s a subset of data science which involves applying advanced mathematical techniques on structured or unstructured data in order to gain insight into it.
    • Data Science: This is an umbrella term for all the activities involved in collecting, managing, storing, retrieving, processing, analyzing, interpreting, presenting, and disseminating large amounts of data.

    3. Can you describe sampling and some of its techniques used?

    • In data science, sampling is one of the most important tools. The main reason why we sample our data is because we want to get a representative view of the whole population. We can do this by randomly selecting samples from the entire population.
    • There are two types of sampling techniques – simple random sampling and stratified sampling.
      • Simple random sampling is when we select a number of elements at random from the total population.
      • Stratified sampling is when we divide the population into groups based on certain criteria (like gender, age, income level, etc.) and then select a number of elements from each group.

    4. Describe the conditions for overfitting and underfitting?

    • Overfitting occurs when we fit too much noise into our model. In other words, we try to predict something that doesn’t exist. For example, if we have a model that predicts whether someone will buy a product or not, but the training data only contains people who bought the product before, then the model will overfit and make predictions about people who haven’t even purchased anything.
    • Underfitting happens when we don’t include enough features in our model. If we have a model that tries to predict the price of a house, but the training data has no prices, then the model won’t be able to learn any useful information.

    5. Difference between the long and wide format data?

    There are many ways to format data, but the two most common are the long and wide formats. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages which you will learn in your data science course in Chennai, so it’s important to choose the right one for your needs. Here’s a brief overview of the two formats:

    Long Format Data

    Wide Format Data

    Long format data is organized in rows

    Wide format data is organized in columns

    Long format data has more variables than observations

    Wide format data has fewer variables than observations.

    Long format data is organized in a matrix

    Wide format data is arranged in a table

    Long format data is stored in a file

    Wide format data is stored in database

     

    6. What are Eigenvectors & Eigenvalues and define Eigen decomposition?

    • Eigenvectors are the basis vectors of a linear transformation. They are also known as eigenvectors.
    • An eigenvalue is the value of the characteristic equation of a square matrix. An eigenvector is a vector with non-zero entries whose corresponding eigenvalue is equal to 1.

    The eigen decomposition of a square matrix M is defined as follows:

    M V D V-1 where V is a matrix containing the eigenvectors and D is a diagonal matrix containing the eigenvalues.

    7. Explain how PCA works?

    PCA is a dimensionality reduction technique which reduces the dimensions of the dataset without losing any information. It does so by finding the directions along which the variance is maximum. These directions are called principal components.

    8. Can you give an example of a case in which p-values are high and low?

    A p-value is the probability that you would obtain the same or better results if the null hypothesis was true. If the value is less than 5%, we reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there is evidence against the null hypothesis. On the contrary, if the p-value is greater than 95%, we accept the null hypothesis and conclude there is no evidence against the null hypothesis and say that the data supports the null hypothesis.

    The lower the p-value, the stronger our evidence against the null hypothesis, while the higher the p-value, our evidence for the null hypothesis increases.

    For example, suppose we want to test whether the average temperature in January is statistically different from the average temperature in July. We calculate a t-test statistic and find that the difference is 2 degrees Celsius. Our p-value is 0.042; therefore, we cannot reject the null hypothesis, and we conclude that the average temperatures in January and July are likely to be similar.

    On the contrary, if we wanted to test whether the average height of men is statistically different than the women, we calculated a t-test statistic of 4 inches and found a p-value of 0.01. Therefore, we reject the null hypothesis, concluding that men are taller than women.

    When it comes to data science, there is a lot to learn in order to be successful. However, one of the most important things to understand is how to interpret p-values. P-values can be high or low, and it is important to know how to read them in order to make the best decisions for your data. FITA Academy Experts can help you through the data science course in Chennai to learn which p-values are high and low, and what that means for your data.

    9. What are the types of Resampling and When it is Done?

    Resampling is a method used to improve the quality of predictions and estimate the uncertainty of population parameters such as mean, variance, standard deviation, etc. This process is done to ensure the prediction model is robust and accurate by sampling the data set multiple times and observing how it changes. Resampling helps us understand whether our model is biased towards certain values, and gives us confidence about the accuracy of the model.

    There are three types of resampling methods:

    • Bootstrap – A bootstrapping technique involves generating samples from a distribution of interest and calculating statistics based on those samples. For example, we could generate 1000 samples from a normal distribution and calculate the mean and standard deviation of each sample. We repeat this process many times to obtain an average value and standard deviation.
    • Cross validation – In cross validation, one splits the original data into several parts/folds and trains the model on some of the folds and validates it on the remaining ones. Once the model is trained, it is tested on the entire data set.
    • Randomization – This is a simple way to make sure that the model is unbiased. One simply shuffles the data randomly and retrains the model. If the model performs well, then we know there is no bias present in the data.

    10. How do you define Imbalanced Data?

    Data is said to be highly skewed if it is distributed unevenly across different categories. For example, if there are 10 times more images of cats than dogs, then the data set is considered to be imbalanced. This imbalance creates problems for machine learning algorithms because they require balanced data sets to perform well. If the dataset contains too many examples of one class, then the algorithm will learn to predict that class. However, if the dataset contains too few examples of another class, then the algorithm won’t know how to classify those examples correctly.

    The problem becomes even worse when we look at image classification tasks like facial recognition and object detection. In such cases, the number of positive samples (images containing faces or objects) is much smaller compared to the negative samples (images without faces or objects). As a result, most models tend to overfit the training data and fail to generalize to unseen test data.

    To help you learn about this, FITA Academy’s Data science training in Chennai will guide you with a few ways to deal with imbalanced data, but the most common is to oversample the minority class or undersample the majority class.

    11. How does the expected value differ from the mean value?

    The difference between the expected value and the mean value is subtle. You might think that the expected value is always greater than the mean value because you know that the average number of people who attend a party is less than the total number of guests. However, this isn’t true. For example, the mean value for the number of people attending a party is 5 and the expected value is 4.5. This is because some parties have fewer than five people while others have more than 10. In fact, most parties have an expected value of around four. If we add up the numbers of people who attended each party, we find that the sum is equal to the total number of people invited. Therefore, the mean value is actually closer to the actual number of attendees.

    In statistics, the expected value is often written as E(X), where X represents a random variable. The mean value is usually written as μ, although sometimes it is written as M.

    The expert will guide you with each and every step with conceptual examples in your data science course in Chennai which is perfect for beginners in data science to understand the concepts easily.

    12. How would you define Survivorship Bias?

    Survivorship bias is a common cognitive bias where people tend to focus on facts that support their beliefs and ignore evidence to the contrary. In statistics, it refers to the tendency to look for patterns among events that happened in the past rather than looking at what might happen in the future. For example, if someone believes that humans are responsible for global warming, he or she might overlook evidence that suggests otherwise.

    The term was coined by psychologist Daniel Kahneman in his book Thinking Fast and Slow. He used the term to describe the way people think about the world around them. They see things happening now and assume that they will continue to happen in the future. However, they don’t consider the possibility that something could change and make the current situation obsolete.

    13. What is KPI?

    KPI stands for Key Performance Indicator. It is a metric that can help organizations measure performance. KPIs are commonly used in business management and finance. A good KPI should meet three criteria:

    • Be easy to understand
    • Have clear goals
    • Provide actionable information

    14. What is Lift?

    Lift is a measurement of how well a model performs on new data. When we say “lift”, we are referring to the increase in accuracy of our predictions. For example, When we use a logistic regression model, with two features, then the lift is 2.0. This means that adding one feature increases the prediction accuracy by 2%.

    15. What is model fitting?

    Model fitting is the process of finding the best set of parameters (or weights) for a given model. Model fitting involves using statistical methods such as linear regression, logistic regression, decision trees, neural networks, etc. With hands-on practical exercises, you will have a good understanding of how to use these statistical methods in an R program which is covered in your data science training in Chennai.

    16. What is Robustness?

    Robustness is the ability of a model to perform well under different conditions. For example, a model that predicts whether a person will buy a product based on their gender and age will be robust against changes in these variables. On the other hand, a model that uses only one variable like income may not work when there are multiple factors influencing purchase decisions.

    17. What is DOE?

    DOE stands for Design of Experiments. It is a method for evaluating models. We can use DOE to test various combinations of input values and observe which combination gives us the highest accuracy.

    18. What are confounding variables?

    Confounding variables are variables that affect both dependent and independent variables. Confounding variables can lead to biased results. For example, if an experiment shows that increasing the price of a product leads to higher sales, this does not necessarily mean that increasing prices always leads to increased sales. If the price of the product decreases, then sales will decrease too. So, the effect of price on sales depends on many other factors besides just the price itself.

    19. What is Selection Bias?

    Selection bias occurs when researchers choose participants who have characteristics similar to those of the population from which they were drawn. The result is that the sample is not representative of the population.

    For example, if you want to study the effects of smoking on health, you would probably exclude smokers from your sample. The reason is that smokers have more health problems than non-smokers. As a result, the findings of your research cannot be generalized to all smokers.

    20. Explain the types of Selection Bias?

    There are many different types of selection bias, and FITA Academy trainers can help you navigate through them to ensure you’re making the best choices in your data science course in Chennai to gain the best career opportunities in the data science industry. Here are some types of Selection Bias listed below:

    • Sampling Bias – where the researcher chooses participants who have characteristics similar or identical to those of the population.
    • Self Selection Bias – where the researcher selects participants who share his/her own interests.
    • Volunteer Bias – where the researcher recruits people who are interested in participating in the study.
    • Response Bias – where the researcher asks questions that are likely to elicit certain responses.

    21. Explain bias-variance trade-off?

    Bias-variance trade-offs occur when we try to find the optimal balance between bias and variance. Variance refers to the amount of error associated with each observation. In general, the smaller the variance, the better the estimate. However, the larger the variance, the less precise the estimate. To minimize the risk of overfitting, we need to reduce our variance by reducing the number of observations used to fit the model. This means that we must increase the size of our training data.

    22. How do we deal with Bias-Variance Trade-Offs?

    We can use cross validation techniques to address this problem. Cross validation helps us determine how much data should be used to train the model.

    23. Explain why we need to use Cross Validation Techniques?

    Cross validation techniques help us avoid overfitting. Overfitting happens when we build a model using too few samples. This causes the model to fit the noise instead of the signal. When we apply the model to new data, it will give us inaccurate predictions.

    24. Why do we need to use Cross Validations?

    Cross validations allow us to evaluate the performance of a model without making any assumptions about the underlying distribution of the data.

    25. What is K-fold Cross Validation?

    K-fold cross validation is a technique that divides the dataset into k equal sized subsets. Then, we randomly assign k partitions to the learning algorithm. Next, we run the learning algorithm on each partition. Finally, we average the results across all the partitions. We repeat this process until every subset has been assigned to the learning algorithm.

    26. What is Leave One Out Cross Validation?

    Leave one out cross validation (LOOCV) is a special case of k-fold cross validation. It involves leaving out one observation at a time and running the learning algorithm on the remaining observations.

    27. What is Bootstrap Cross Validation?

    Bootstrap cross validation is another name for leave one out cross validation. It uses random resampling to generate multiple datasets. Each dataset contains n – 1 observations. We then run the learning algorithm on these datasets. Finally, we average all the results together.

    28. What is a confusion matrix?

    The confusion matrix is a table indicating the performance of a binary classifier on a given dataset. A confusion matrix has 2 rows and 2 columns. Each row represents one class, while each column represents another class. In other words, for a binary classification problem, there are four possible outcomes: positive, negative, true positives, and false negatives.

    As a result, if this isn’t the case learn more about confusion matrix through the FITA Academy’s data science course in Chennai and figure out what you need to do to create one with your own data and model, in addition to the best way to go about it.

    29. What is logistic regression and explain how it works?

    Logistic Regression is also called the logit model. It is a technique to make predictions about the probability of an event occurring. In our case, it predicts whether a candidate will win or lose an election. We use the term “logistic” because we are predicting a binary outcome—either the candidate wins or loses.

    For example, suppose we wanted to know what the probability is that Donald Trump will win the presidency. This is a very simple problem. If we take the total number of votes cast for him, we divide it by the number of votes he needs to win. If he gets 50% plus one vote, then he will win; otherwise, he won’t.

    This is exactly what logistic regression does. Let’s say we had some data points describing how many people voted for each candidate in the 2016 presidential election. Then, we could fit a logistic regression model to predict the probability that Trump would win based on those numbers.

    Let’s look at an example. Suppose there were 10,000 voters in the United States. Of those, 3,500 voted for Hillary Clinton and 7,500 voted for Trump. Now, we want to calculate the probability that Trump will win. To do this, we must solve 2 problems. First, To begin with, we must determine how many votes Trump needs to win. Second, we need to determine the probability of winning given that many votes.

    To answer the first question, we simply add up the number of votes for Trump and subtract the number of votes for Clinton. In this case, that gives us 4,900 votes. But, since we don’t know how many votes Trump actually received, we need to estimate his true vote count.

    We should assume that Trump’s votes are spread out like a normal distribution. An example of a normal distribution is the following, which is symmetric around the mean:

    As you can see, it peaks at zero, meaning that most of the votes for Trump fall within a range centered around 0.Therefore, we can assume that half of the votes for Trump were cast fell within the range -2,700 to +3,300, and half fell outside that range. Therefore, we can set our predicted value to be halfway between the maximum and minimum values.

    30. Describe the concept and working of a random forest?

    The Random Forest Classifier is one of the most widely used supervised machine learning techniques. There are many decision trees in a random forest. A bootstrap sample is a randomly selected subset of samples used to train each tree. We use the term “random” here because each tree is built independently of others. This independence leads to different decisions being taken by different trees. In fact, each tree makes a prediction based on its training data and then this prediction is compared against the actual label assigned to the test instance. If the predicted value is closer to the true label, then it is considered correct. Otherwise, it is wrong.

    This process continues till every single node in the decision tree becomes a leaf node. At that point, the tree stops growing further. Finally, we take the average of predictions made by all the trees in the forest.

    Random forests are extremely useful for dealing with high dimensional datasets where there are too many features to consider individually. For example, It’s impossible to evaluate all combinations of feature values if you have a dataset with hundreds of thousands of features. However, a random forest allows us to do this efficiently.

    31. How does deep learning differ from machine learning and what are the differences between them?

    Among the most popular topics in Artificial Intelligence (AI) is deep learning. This topic deals with the application of AI techniques to solve real world problems.Deep learning algorithms include Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN), Long Short Term Memory (LSTM), etc. These models are used to classify images, detect objects, play video games, translate languages, etc.

    Machine Learning is another important branch of AI. Machine learning uses statistical methods to learn patterns from training examples without being explicitly programmed. For example, we can use a computer program to teach itself how to recognize cats just by feeding it enough pictures of cats. Machine learning is often applied to natural language processing, speech recognition, robotics, recommendation systems, game playing programs, image classification, spam filtering, etc.

    In contrast to traditional machine learning, deep learning aims to mimic the biological processes of the human brain. And deep learning algorithms mimic the way neurons communicate with each other inside our brains. We call this process unsupervised learning since there are no instructions telling what to do.

    32. How do gradients and gradient descents work?

    A gradient is a mathematical representation of the steepness of a function. A gradient represents the direction in which the function changes most rapidly. This helps us understand whether the function increases or decreases as we move along the direction of the gradient.

    Gradient descent is a method used to find the global minimum of a function. Starting with some initial guesses about the solution, we then iteratively update our guesses based on the difference between current and previous values.

    The process continues till the difference becomes zero.

    33. What are the feature vectors?

    A feature vector is an n dimensional vector of numerical features that represents an object. For example, you could use a feature vector to describe an animal like a cat, such as “has four legs”, “is black and white”, “lives in the wild”, etc. Feature vectors can be used to classify objects into groups based on similar properties.

    In machine learning, feature vectors can be used to represent numeric or symbolical characteristics (called features) that make up an object. For example: a feature vector could be used to describe a person as having blue eyes, brown hair, a large nose, etc. Feature vectors are most commonly used to categorize data into different classes. One common application is to label images as being either cats or dogs. Another example might be assigning each customer in a database to one of three categories depending on their purchase history.

    34. Describe the steps involved in making a decision tree?

    Decision trees are used to classify data based on some attribute. They work like this: You take the whole data set as input. Then you look for a split that maximises the separation of the classes (i.e., the difference between the two groups). This split is called a node. At each node, you apply the same process again to the divided data. If you stop at a particular node, you know that there is no further splitting possible. Each node represents a class. For instance, let’s say we want to categorize customers based on gender. We could use a decision tree algorithm to find out whether male or female customers spend more money on our products.

    The first thing we do is take the entire data set as an input. We divide it into two parts: males and females. Next, we look for a split that separates the two groups. In this case, the best split is gender Male versus gender Female. Because the split is good, we continue applying the same process to both halves.

    For example, if we had a customer database of 1000 records, we might start with a split by age group. The next step would be to split by income level. And so on. Once we have found all the splits, we end up with two sub-groups.

    Here are the steps involved in making a decision tree:

    • Selecting the right variables for splitting nodes – The first step involves deciding which attributes should be used to split a node. Each attribute has a cost associated with it. Attributes with higher costs are more useful for splitting than those with lower costs.
    • Choosing the best split criterion – After selecting the attributes, the next step is choosing the best criterion to determine if a given node should be split or not. There are many criteria available including Gini index, information gain, entropy, etc.
    • Finding out if the node should be split – Once the best criterion is chosen, the final step is finding out if the node needs to be divided or not. If the node does need to be split then the next step is determining where the cut should occur.
    • Calculating the cost of every possible split – Once all these steps are done, you’ll be able to figure out how much each split will cost. These costs are added together to get the overall cost of the entire tree. These costs are added together to get the overall cost of the entire tree.
    • Growing the tree – Finally, once the optimal tree has been found, it is grown by adding new nodes to the tree until the desired number of trees is reached.
    • Pruning the tree – Once the tree is complete, pruning is performed to remove any unnecessary branches from the tree.

    Making a decision tree can be a daunting task, but with the right steps, it can be a breeze. FITA Academy’s data science course in Chennai will train you with the steps involved in making a decision tree, so you can be confident in your decisions.

    35. What does root cause analysis mean?

    Root cause analysis was originally developed in the 1960s to help prevent industrial accidents. This approach involves identifying the factors that led to the accident and analyzing how each contributed to it. If you find out what caused the problem, you can avoid recurrence of the same issue.

    The term “root cause analysis” is often confused with “cause and effect analysis.” Cause and effect analysis looks at the sequence of events leading up to a problem; whereas, root cause analysis looks at all contributing factors that lead to the problem.

    For instance, if you don’t know why your car won’t start, you might check how much petrol is in the tank, whether the battery is dead, whether the ignition switch is faulty, etc. You could even take apart the vehicle to see whether there is something wrong with the wiring or fuel pump. However, if you discover that the spark plugs are dirty or the battery cable is loose, those are both fixable issues that would prevent the car from starting again. Those things aren’t considered part of the chain of events that leads to the problem because they don’t contribute directly to the problem itself. They’re just symptoms of the real problem.
