Short Notes on Data Processing and Machine Learning

### Linear Algebra Basics

1. **Matrices to Represent Relations Between Data**:

- Matrix: Organizes data as rows (samples) and columns (features).

- Example: Adjacency matrix for graphs.

2. **Linear Algebra Operations**:

- Addition/Subtraction, Multiplication, Transpose, Inverse.

3. **Matrix Decomposition**:

- Singular Value Decomposition (SVD): A = U * Sigma * V^T. Applications: Dimensionality reduction.

- Principal Component Analysis (PCA): Captures maximum variance in fewer dimensions.

### Data Pre-processing and Feature Selection

1. **Data Pre-processing**:

- Cleaning: Handle missing values, remove duplicates.

- Integration: Merge datasets from multiple sources.

- Reduction: Sampling, aggregation.

- Transformation: Scaling, normalization; Discretization: Bin continuous data.


2. **Feature Selection**:

- Filters: Use statistical tests (e.g., correlation) to rank features.

- Wrappers: Evaluate subsets of features with a model.

- Embedded Methods: Decision Trees, Random Forests for selection.

### Basic Machine Learning Algorithms

1. **Classifiers**:

- Decision Tree: Splits data using feature values.

- Naive Bayes: Probabilistic model based on Bayes' Theorem.

- k-Nearest Neighbors (k-NN): Classifies using k-nearest neighbors.

2. **Clustering**:

- k-Means: Groups data into k clusters minimizing intra-cluster variance.

3. **Advanced Techniques**:

- Support Vector Machine (SVM): Finds optimal hyperplane for classification.

- Association Rule Mining: Discovers relationships (e.g., Market Basket Analysis).

- Ensemble Methods: Combine models (e.g., Random Forests, AdaBoost).
