The AUC value lies between 0.5 to 1 where 0.5 denotes a bad classifer and 1 denotes an excellent classifier.
C10101
In short, fourier series is for periodic signals and fourier transform is for aperiodic signals. Fourier series is used to decompose signals into basis elements (complex exponentials) while fourier transforms are used to analyze signal in another domain (e.g. from time to frequency, or vice versa).
C10102
Grid-searching is the process of scanning the data to configure optimal parameters for a given model. Grid-Search will build a model on each parameter combination possible. It iterates through every parameter combination and stores a model for each combination.
C10103
A-squared is the test statistic for the Anderson-Darling Normality test. It is a measure of how closely a dataset follows the normal distribution. So if you get an A-squared that is fairly large, then you will get a small p-value and thus reject the null hypothesis.
C10104
The sample mean is a consistent estimator for the population mean. A consistent estimate has insignificant errors (variations) as sample sizes grow larger. In other words, the more data you collect, a consistent estimator will be close to the real population parameter you're trying to measure.
C10105
Efficiency: ReLu is faster to compute than the sigmoid function, and its derivative is faster to compute. This makes a significant difference to training and inference time for neural networks: only a constant factor, but constants can matter. Simplicity: ReLu is simple.
C10106
The main motivation is to aggregate multiple low-level features in the neighborhood to gain invariance mainly in object recognition. Why do we use pooling layers in CNN?
C10107
The RMSE is the square root of the variance of the residuals. It indicates the absolute fit of the model to the data–how close the observed data points are to the model's predicted values. Whereas R-squared is a relative measure of fit, RMSE is an absolute measure of fit. Lower values of RMSE indicate better fit.
C10108
Machine Learning This phenomenon states that with a fixed number of training samples, the average (expected) predictive power of a classifier or regressor first increases as number of dimensions or features used is increased but beyond a certain dimensionality it starts deteriorating instead of improving steadily.
C10109
Mean Absolute Error (MAE) is another loss function used for regression models. MAE is the sum of absolute differences between our target and predicted variables. So it measures the average magnitude of errors in a set of predictions, without considering their directions.
C10110
The sum of a square matrix and its conjugate transpose. is Hermitian. The difference of a square matrix and its conjugate transpose. is skew-Hermitian.

Advantages of Dimensionality Reduction It helps in data compression, and hence reduced storage space. It reduces computation time. It also helps remove redundant features, if any.
C10112
Swarm-intelligence principles inspired by the collective insect societies are used for developing computer algorithms and motion control principles for robotics. The basic idea is that a swarm of individuals can coordinate and behave as a single entity that performs better than the individuals.
C10113
A support vector machine is a machine learning model that is able to generalise between two different classes if the set of labelled data is provided in the training set to the algorithm. The main function of the SVM is to check for that hyperplane that is able to distinguish between the two classes.
C10114
You can pass data between view controllers in Swift in 6 ways:By using an instance property (A → B)By using segues (for Storyboards)By using instance properties and functions (A ← B)By using the delegation pattern.By using a closure or completion handler.By using NotificationCenter and the Observer pattern.
C10115
Non-hierarchical clustering is frequently referred to as k-means clustering. This type of clustering does not require all possible distances to be computed in a large data set. This technique is primarily used for the analysis of clusters in data mining.
C10116
If you have n numbers in a group, the median is the (n + 1)/2 th value. For example, there are 7 numbers in the example above, so replace n by 7 and the median is the (7 + 1)/2 th value = 4th value. The 4th value is 6. On a histogram, the median value occurs where the whole histogram is divided into two equal parts.
C10117
The Kruskal-Wallis H test (sometimes also called the "one-way ANOVA on ranks") is a rank-based nonparametric test that can be used to determine if there are statistically significant differences between two or more groups of an independent variable on a continuous or ordinal dependent variable.
C10118
Most machine learning roles will require the use of Python or C/C++ (though Python is often preferred). Background in the theory behind machine learning algorithms and an understanding of how they can be efficiently implemented in terms of both space and time is critical.

The distributional hypothesis suggests that the more semantically similar two words are, the more distributionally similar they will be in turn, and thus the more that they will tend to occur in similar linguistic contexts.
C10121
Yes. For a 1D signal, shift invariance of a filter implies the following. The following example illustrates the shift invariance (for all the signals, the sample at the origin is in bold, and zero padding is assumed).

The simple moving average (SMA) is the average price of a security over a specific period. The exponential moving average (EMA) provides more weight to the most recent prices in an attempt to better reflect new market data. The difference between the two is noticeable when comparing long-term averages.
C10125
It is believed that Facebook's new algorithm is based on the Vickrey-Clarke-Groves algorithm, which “operates as a closed auction.” Facebook's algorithm for ranking content on your News Feed is based on four factors: The Inventory of all posts available to display. Signals that tell Facebook what each post is.
C10126
Machine learning uses algorithms to parse data, learn from that data, and make informed decisions based on what it has learned. Deep learning is a subfield of machine learning. While both fall under the broad category of artificial intelligence, deep learning is what powers the most human-like artificial intelligence.
C10127
The relative efficiency of two procedures is the ratio of their efficiencies, although often this concept is used where the comparison is made between a given procedure and a notional "best possible" procedure.
C10128
Descriptive statistics are used to describe the basic features of the data in a study. They provide simple summaries about the sample and the measures. Descriptive statistics are typically distinguished from inferential statistics. With descriptive statistics you are simply describing what is or what the data shows.
C10129
Data skewed to the right is usually a result of a lower boundary in a data set (whereas data skewed to the left is a result of a higher boundary). So if the data set's lower bounds are extremely low relative to the rest of the data, this will cause the data to skew right. Another cause of skewness is start-up effects.
C10130

C10131
The loss function is used to optimize your model. This is the function that will get minimized by the optimizer. A metric is used to judge the performance of your model.
C10132
To conclude, the important thing to remember about the odds ratio is that an odds ratio greater than 1 is a positive association (i.e., higher number for the predictor means group 1 in the outcome), and an odds ratio less than 1 is negative association (i.e., higher number for the predictor means group 0 in the outcome
C10133
Quota sampling achieves a representative age distribution, but it isn't a random sample, because the sampling frame is unknown. Therefore, the sample may not be representative of the population.
C10134
A neural network is either a system software or hardware that works similar to the tasks performed by neurons of human brain. Neural networks include various technologies like deep learning, and machine learning as a part of Artificial Intelligence (AI).

Attention Mechanism in Neural Networks - 1. Introduction. Attention is arguably one of the most powerful concepts in the deep learning field nowadays. It is based on a common-sensical intuition that we “attend to” a certain part when processing a large amount of information.
C10140
Decision theory is an interdisciplinary approach to arrive at the decisions that are the most advantageous given an uncertain environment. Decision theory brings together psychology, statistics, philosophy, and mathematics to analyze the decision-making process.
C10141
The least squares method is a statistical procedure to find the best fit for a set of data points by minimizing the sum of the offsets or residuals of points from the plotted curve. Least squares regression is used to predict the behavior of dependent variables.

A dummy variable (aka, an indicator variable) is a numeric variable that represents categorical data, such as gender, race, political affiliation, etc. For example, suppose we are interested in political affiliation, a categorical variable that might assume three values - Republican, Democrat, or Independent.
C10144
A linear regression line has an equation of the form Y = a + bX, where X is the explanatory variable and Y is the dependent variable. The slope of the line is b, and a is the intercept (the value of y when x = 0).
C10145
The use of computer algorithms plays an essential role in space search programs. We are in the age of algorithms because they solve our everyday tasks and we won't be able to live with them. They make our life more comfortable and, in the future, they will be able to predict our behavior.
C10146
Cluster analysis or clustering is the task of grouping a set of objects in such a way that objects in the same group (called a cluster) are more similar (in some sense) to each other than to those in other groups (clusters). Cluster analysis itself is not one specific algorithm, but the general task to be solved.
C10147
Advantages. The main advantage of multivariate analysis is that since it considers more than one factor of independent variables that influence the variability of dependent variables, the conclusion drawn is more accurate.
C10148
The beta distribution is a continuous probability distribution that can be used to represent proportion or probability outcomes. For example, the beta distribution might be used to find how likely it is that your preferred candidate for mayor will receive 70% of the vote.

Output is defined as the act of producing something, the amount of something that is produced or the process in which something is delivered. An example of output is the electricity produced by a power plant. An example of output is producing 1,000 cases of a product.
C10152
In our categorical case we would use a simple regression equation for each group to investigate the simple slopes. It is common practice to standardize or center variables to make the data more interpretable in simple slopes analysis; however, categorical variables should never be standardized or centered.

“Bayesian statistics is a mathematical procedure that applies probabilities to statistical problems. It provides people the tools to update their beliefs in the evidence of new data.”
C10154
Multiple Linear Regression Analysis consists of more than just fitting a linear line through a cloud of data points. It consists of three stages: 1) analyzing the correlation and directionality of the data, 2) estimating the model, i.e., fitting the line, and 3) evaluating the validity and usefulness of the model.
C10155
The posterior probability is one of the quantities involved in Bayes' rule. It is the conditional probability of a given event, computed after observing a second event whose conditional and unconditional probabilities were known in advance.
C10156
There are two major different types of uncertainty in deep learning: epistemic uncertainty and aleatoric uncertainty. Epistemic uncertainty describes what the model does not know because training data was not appropriate. Epistemic uncertainty is due to limited data and knowledge.
C10157
Every parametric test has the assumption that the sample means are following a normal distribution. This is the case if the sample itself is normal distributed or if approximately if the sample size is big enough.

When part of the memory network is activated, activation spreads along the associative pathways to related areas in memory. This spread of activation serves to make these related areas of the memory network more available for further cognitive processing (Balota & Lorch, 1986).
C10170
Random Forest is less computationally expensive and does not require a GPU to finish training. A random forest can give you a different interpretation of a decision tree but with better performance. Neural Networks will require much more data than an everyday person might have on hand to actually be effective.
C10171
Intuitively, two random variables X and Y are independent if knowing the value of one of them does not change the probabilities for the other one. In other words, if X and Y are independent, we can write P(Y=y|X=x)=P(Y=y), for all x,y.
