Building Decision Tree model in python from scratch – Step by step

In previous post, we created our first Machine Learning model using Logistic Regression to solve a classification problem. We used “Wisconsin Breast Cancer dataset” for demonstration purpose. Now, in this post “Building Decision Tree model in python from scratch – Step by step”, we will be using IRIS dataset which is a standard dataset that […]

Building first Machine Learning model using Logistic Regression in Python – Step by Step

This post briefs how to create our first machine learning predictive model using Logistic regression in Python. When we start working on a Machine Learning project, first, we perform some data wrangling and transformation to get the tidy dataset. Then, we perform some EDA to find trends, patterns, and outliers in the given dataset. Once, we have machine-interpretable data

Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) using Python – Second step in Data Science and Machine Learning

In the previous post, “Tidy Data in Python – First Step in Data Science and Machine Learning”, we discussed the importance of the tidy data and its principles. In a Machine Learning project, once we have a tidy dataset in place, it is always recommended to perform EDA (Exploratory Data Analysis) on the underlying data

Python use case – Resampling time series data (Upsampling and downsampling) – SQL Server 2017

Resampling time series data in SQL Server using Python’s pandas library In this post, we are going to learn how we can use the power of Python in SQL Server 2017 to resample time series data using Python’s pandas library. Sometimes, we get the sample data (observations) at a different frequency (higher or lower) than

Tidy Data in Python – First Step in Data Science and Machine Learning

Most of the Data Science / Machine Learning projects follow the Pareto principle where we spend almost 80% of the time in data preparation and remaining 20% in choosing and training the appropriate ML model. Mostly, the datasets we get to create Machine Learning models are messy datasets and cannot be fitted into the model

Python use case – Import zipped file without unzipping it in SSIS and SQL Server – SQL Server 2017

Import zipped CSV file without unzipping it in SSIS using SQL Server 2017 SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) is one of the most popular ETL tools. It has many built-in components which can be used in order to automate the enterprise ETL(Extract, Transform, and Load). Also, if we need a customized component which is not

Python use case – Convert rows into comma separated values in a column – SQL Server 2017

In this post, we are going to learn how we can leverage python in SQL server to generate comma separated values. If we want to combine all values of a single column it is fairly easy as we can use COALESCE function to do that. Here is a reference to the already existing post. But have
