  • “Exploring Skewness and Predicting Distributions: In-Class Activities and Infographic Assignment”

    The instructor will have activities in the classroom discussing the topics for the session, including, but not limited to:
    Discuss Skewness of a Distribution Consider the four examples for histograms with different levels of skewness shown in Figure5.12 (page 186.) Using your common sense and general knowledge, try to guess the expected skewness (either left, symmetric, or right) for the following nine examples. Explain why.
    Length of hospital stay
    Birth weight
    Family income
    Daily stock market returns
    Age of death
    Female shoe size
    Scores in easy exam
    Housing prices
    Adult male height
    Discuss Predicting Skewness from Summary Statistics (5-02 Statistical Analysis of Distributions of Quantitative Variables, Consider the frequency polygon chart in Figure 5.14b (page 188.) The distribution of female and male age at death is skewed left. How could we have used the summary statistics of location, such as mean and median described on page 193, and the measure of variation such as the quartiles, described on page 196, to predict the existence of skewness in the distributions of female and male age at death?
    Besides the charts shown in figure 5.14 (page 188), which other data visualization technique could you have used to display the female and male age at death distributions?
    How many outliers does the distribution have?
    Possible in-Class Assignment
    Create an infographic on the various concepts learned from this chapter. Share the infographic as a PDF. The infographic should include at least one key concept from each section of the chapter
    Information on these aforementioned topics will be presented by your professor during this class.
    Individual/Group activities will also be determined by your professor and the outcomes of those activities will be submitted in this space. Some of those possible activities will include:
    Group Case Studies
    Full-Class Case Studies
    Individual Deliverables
    Class divided into subgroups to advocate for certain points-of-view on a topic in a point-counterpoint discussion with other groups
    Group presentations
    Any other activity as determine by the instructor
    Whatever the instructor chooses for you to do, there will be at least one artifact generated from the classroom activity that will be uploaded to this Classroom Activity Assignment representing individuals or assigned groups. This may include a word doc, spreadsheet, presentation or any other artifact as designated by the instructor. At least half of the participation grade (25 points) will be tied to this in-class activity and will be graded by the instructor.
    You will need your own laptop in the classroom for this activity. Please make sure it’s charged and ready to go.
    Students must be in the classroom for the opportunity to earn these points.

  • DAT 535 Programming Assignment: Seaborn, NumPy, and Linear Regression

    80% Assignment Requirements Fulfilled. The program runs correctly.
    20% Divided equally among the items in the list below:
    Only zipped folders or single files should be submitted to Blackboard. All files require the correct extensions. .py for Spyder IDE files or .ipynb
    Zip multiple files in a folder to submit.
    All submission folder and file names must include the student’s last name.
    All individual files should have self documenting names.
    All variables should have self documenting names.
    Use of comments, including a comment block at the top of each file with your name and other details.
    Include this sentence in the comment block at the top and type in your name:
    I certify, that this computer program submitted by me is all of my own work. Signed: Your Name
    All sources cited.
    Correct spelling and grammar.
    Neat, clearly presented code.
    The class is likely to have students with different exposures to computer programming. You are not required to have any experience in Python. The important issue is how much you learn during our class. DAT 535 Session 1 Programming Assignment Week 1 & 2
    Use one Jupyter Notebook file for all parts of the assignment.
    Upload your .ipynb file to MyCourses
    Part 1 – 20 points Type in these commands one cell at a time and then run each cell.
    import seaborn as sns
    sns.get_dataset_names () – This will produce the names of the seaborn datasets.
    Choose one dataset to print and load. I chose the tips dataset and used the variable name plot.
    plot = sns.load_dataset(‘tips’)
    print(plot) Create a scatterplot as demonstrated in the Participation Activity Section 2.1.4
    Choose your own x a -nd y values from the dataset column names.
    Be sure to add some headings and comments to your code as shown at the end of Chapter 2.1
    Part 2 – 20 pointsimport numpy as np
    Create a one-dimensional numpy array with 9 integer elements. Use dtype ‘int16’
    Print the array.
    Print the second element of the array.
    Use 10 other built in NumPy functions of your choice on the array and print the results.
    Part 3 – 20 pointsImport the necessary modules and read in a csv file. The homes dataset contains 18 features giving the characteristics of 76 homes being sold. The modules will be used with the homes.csv file to perform a linear regression. Linear regression will be covered in a different chapter.
    Import the NumPy and pandas packages with the aliases used in this material
    Import the function LinearRegression from the sklearn.linear_model package
    Read in the csv file homes.csv
    Ex: If the csv file homes_small.csv is used instead of homes.csv, the output is:
    The intercept of the regression is 249.522The slope of the regression is 36.758
