QUESTION-ANSWERS:

Explain how Artificial Intelligence (AI) depends on data.

AI fundamentally relies on data to function and improve its intelligence. Data
fed into AI systems allow them to identify patterns, make predictions, and learn.
Different types of data—numeric, visual, or textual—are used in various AI
domains like Data Science (numeric data), Computer Vision (visual data), and
Natural Language Processing (NLP) (textual data). Without data, AI cannot
operate effectively.
What are the key fields that Data Science integrates, and how do they contribute
to its functions?
Data Science integrates fields such as Mathematics, Statistics, Computer
Science, and Information Science. Mathematics provides theoretical
foundations, while statistics offers tools for analyzing data. Computer Science
enables the development of algorithms to process large datasets, and
Information Science focuses on managing and retrieving this data. Together,
these fields allow data scientists to analyze and make predictions from complex
datasets.
Describe the role of Data Science in fraud and risk detection in finance.
Data Science plays a crucial role in fraud and risk detection by analyzing
historical data, customer profiles, and expenditures. In finance, it helps
companies identify potential risks, detect fraud, and prevent bad debts. By
examining customer behavior and transaction patterns, data scientists create
predictive models that reduce financial losses and optimize risk management
strategies.
How does Data Science contribute to advancements in genetics and genomics?
In genetics and genomics, Data Science enables personalized treatments by
analyzing large-scale genomic data. It helps in understanding the relationship
between DNA and health, allowing researchers to predict how individuals may
react to certain drugs or be predisposed to diseases. This deeper insight into
human DNA helps in developing advanced genetic risk prediction models for
more tailored healthcare solutions.
Explain the use of data science algorithms in internet search engines.
Search engines like Google, Bing, and Yahoo use data science algorithms to
deliver accurate search results quickly. These algorithms analyze user queries,
rank relevant results, and improve over time through machine learning. With
massive amounts of data processed daily, such algorithms help filter, sort, and
rank results based on relevance, thereby enhancing the search experience.
What is targeted advertising, and how does Data Science enhance it?
Targeted advertising uses data science algorithms to personalize advertisements
based on user behavior and preferences. Data collected from online activity,
such as browsing history and past purchases, is analyzed to display relevant ads.
This increases the effectiveness of digital marketing campaigns by ensuring that
ads reach the right audience, leading to higher conversion rates compared to
traditional advertising methods.
What is the AI project cycle, and why is it important in Data Science?
The AI project cycle consists of several stages: problem scoping, data
acquisition, data exploration, modeling, and evaluation. This cycle is essential
for systematically addressing real-world problems using AI and Data Science. It
helps ensure that the problem is well understood, the right data is collected,
accurate models are built, and their predictions are properly evaluated for
effective solutions.
How can Data Science help reduce food wastage in restaurants?
Data Science can help predict the amount of food to be prepared by analyzing
historical data such as the number of customers, dish preferences, and past food
wastage. By using regression models, restaurants can estimate the exact amount
of food needed each day, minimizing wastage and reducing losses. Predictive
algorithms help restaurants optimize their supply chain and daily food
production.
Describe the significance of regression models in predicting food wastage.
Regression models, which are part of supervised learning, predict continuous
values by analyzing trends over time. In the restaurant scenario, regression
models use historical data—such as customer footfall and dish consumption—to
predict future demand. By training these models on previous data, restaurants
can accurately estimate the amount of food to prepare, thus preventing excess
wastage.
What is the difference between offline and online data collection methods?
Offline data collection involves gathering data through traditional means such
as surveys, interviews, or observations, while online data collection utilizes
digital platforms like sensors, government portals, and open-source websites
(e.g., Kaggle). Offline methods are useful for localized or manual data
collection, whereas online methods allow access to larger datasets from reliable
sources, facilitating more comprehensive analysis in Data Science.
Explain the importance of data cleaning in Data Science.
Data cleaning is crucial because it ensures the accuracy and consistency of the
data used in analysis. It involves identifying and correcting errors such as
incorrect values, missing entries, and outliers. Without cleaning, faulty data can
lead to incorrect conclusions and poor model performance. Clean data enhances
the reliability of the models, ensuring accurate and meaningful insights.
What are the advantages of using Python’s NumPy for data analysis?
NumPy is a powerful library for numerical operations in Python, widely used in
Data Science for handling large datasets. It allows for efficient mathematical
computations, such as matrix operations and arithmetic functions, on arrays.
NumPy’s ability to process multi-dimensional data and its speed in handling
large datasets make it a preferred choice for data manipulation and analysis in
scientific computing.
How do box plots represent data distribution, and what insights do they offer?
Box plots graphically display the distribution of a dataset by dividing it into
quartiles. They show the minimum, first quartile, median, third quartile, and
maximum, along with any outliers. Box plots are useful for identifying the
spread and skewness of data, as well as detecting outliers. They offer a quick
visual summary of data distribution and are commonly used in exploratory data
analysis.
What is the K-Nearest Neighbour (KNN) algorithm, and how does it work?
The KNN algorithm is a simple, supervised learning technique used for
classification and regression tasks. It classifies data points based on the majority
label of their nearest neighbors. For instance, if K=3, the algorithm looks at the
3 closest points to the unknown data and assigns it the most common class
among those neighbors. KNN is based on the principle that similar data points
exist near each other.
What are some common sources of open data for Data Science projects?
Common sources of open data for Data Science projects include government
portals, open-source platforms like Kaggle, and world organizations’ statistical
websites. These sources provide reliable datasets that can be used for various
purposes, from academic research to business analytics. Access to open data
ensures that data scientists have authentic and diverse datasets to work with for
model training and analysis.
