With this book, you'll get up and running using Python for data analysis by exploring the different phases used in data analysis and learning how to use modern libraries from the Python ecosystem to create efficient data pipelines. Starting with the essential statistical and data analysis fundamentals using Python, you'll perform complex data analysis and modeling, data manipulation, data cleaning, and data visualization using easy—to—follow examples. You'll then understand how to conduct time series analysis and signal processing using ARMA models. As you advance, you'll get to grips with smart processing and data analytics using machine learning algorithms such as regression, classification, Principal Component Analysis (PCA), and clustering. You'll also work on real—world examples to analyze textual and image data using natural language processing (NLP) and image analytics techniques, respectively. Finally, the book will demonstrate parallel computing using Dask. By the end of this data analysis book, you'll be equipped with the skills you need to prepare data for analysis and create meaningful data visualizations for forecasting values from data.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrepare, clean, and transform your data for exploratory analysis, manipulation, and wrangling.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExplore concepts in signal processing, time series analysis, and predictive analytics.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnderstand and apply key machine learning techniques, including supervised, unsupervised, probabilistic, and Bayesian methods.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWork with graph data and perform sentiment analysis.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandle large—scale image and text analytics efficiently.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccelerate data manipulation using Dask, Modin, and Ray.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerform scalable big data analytics with PySpark.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is for data analysts, business analysts, statisticians, and data scientists looking to learn how to use Python for data analysis.
