Market basket analysis examines customer purchasing patterns to determine which items are commonly bought together. This can help retailers with marketing strategies like product bundling and complementary product placement. Association rule mining is a two-step process that first finds frequent item sets that occur together above a minimum support threshold, and then generates strong association rules from these frequent item sets that satisfy minimum support and confidence. Various techniques can improve the efficiency of the Apriori algorithm for mining association rules, such as hashing, transaction reduction, partitioning, sampling, and dynamic item-set counting. Pruning strategies like item merging, sub-item-set pruning, and item skipping can also enhance efficiency. Constraint-based mining allows users to specify constraints on the type of

Recommendation system using collaborative deep learningRitesh Sawant
Collaborative filtering (CF) is a successful approach commonly used by many recommender systems. Conventional
CF-based methods use the ratings given to items by users
as the sole source of information for learning to make recommendation. However, the ratings are often very sparse in
many applications, causing CF-based methods to degrade
significantly in their recommendation performance. To address this sparsity problem, auxiliary information such as
item content information may be utilized. Collaborative
topic regression (CTR) is an appealing recent method taking
this approach which tightly couples the two components that
learn from two different sources of information. Nevertheless, the latent representation learned by CTR may not be
very effective when the auxiliary information is very sparse.
To address this problem, we generalize recent advances in
deep learning from i.i.d. input to non-i.i.d. (CF-based) input and propose in this paper a hierarchical Bayesian model
called collaborative deep learning (CDL), which jointly performs deep representation learning for the content information and collaborative filtering for the ratings (feedback)
matrix. Extensive experiments on three real-world datasets
from different domains show that CDL can significantly advance the state of the art.

Social networks are not new, even though websites like Facebook and Twitter might make you want to believe they are; and trust me- I’m not talking about Myspace! Social networks are extremely interesting models for human behavior, whose study dates back to the early twentieth century. However, because of those websites, data scientists have access to much more data than the anthropologists who studied the networks of tribes!
Because networks take a relationship-centered view of the world, the data structures that we will analyze model real world behaviors and community. Through a suite of algorithms derived from mathematical Graph theory we are able to compute and predict behavior of individuals and communities through these types of analyses. Clearly this has a number of practical applications from recommendation to law enforcement to election prediction, and more.

Visual complexity can both increase and decrease consumer engagement on social media. The researchers analyzed over 630,000 Instagram posts from 633 brands to understand how different dimensions of visual complexity impact engagement, as measured by likes. They found an inverted U-shape relationship between luminance variation/edge density and engagement, suggesting moderate levels maximize it. The number and dissimilarity of concepts positively impacted engagement when interacting, while increased visual clutter decreased it. Overall, the study suggests visual complexity can engage consumers on social media if its different dimensions are properly balanced.

7. NumPy- Numerical Computing
Similar to creation of Matlab array objects
N-dimensional array objects
Used for linear algebra, fourier transform, and random number capabilities
Capable of matrix operations, string operations, and binary operations
Easy to install and import with single line
Import numpy as np
The above code fetches numpy package and it can be used with it’s alias as np
eg., np.array([(2,3),(4,5)])
8. Pandas- Dataframes
Creates an efficient dataframe object for data manipulation with integrated
indexing
Takes input data in many formats: CSV, Excel, SQL databases
Handles messy and missing data easily
Slicing, dicing and indexing of large datasets
Very useful for cleaning the data before applying any algorithm
Can be imported with single line
Import pandas as pd
Eg : pd.read_table(‘—file path in local machine-’)
9. Matplotlib-Visualization
Python 2D plotting library to generate quality figures
Generates plots, histograms, bar charts, scatterplots, etc.,
Uses NumPy NDArrays to plot graphs
Full control of font styles , line properties , axes properties, etc.
Easy to install and import using single line
Import matplotlib
Pyplot module is used for simple plotting and provides good interface when
combined with Ipython
10. Regression
One Dependent Variable Y
Independent Variables X1,X2,X3,...
Y = ß0 + ß1 X(1) + ß2 X(2) + ß3 X(3) + ... + ßk X(k) + E
Estimate the ß's in multiple regression using least squares
Sizes of the coefficients not good indicators of importance of X variables
12. Key Assumptions for Linear Regression
Linearity
The dependent variable is a linear combination of independent variables
Homoscedasticity
Constant variance in errors
Normality
Independence of errors
14. Key Assumptions for Logistic Regression
Linearity
Linearity of independent variables and log odds
Homoscedasticity: no
Normality: no
Highly skewed independent variables can still be problematic
Independence of errors: yes
15. Clustering
Cluster analysis is the generic name for a wide variety of procedures that can
be used to create a classification of entities/objects
It has been referred to as Q analysis, typology construction, classification
analysis, unsupervised pattern recognition, and numerical taxonomy
A deck of 52 cards can be grouped as:
26 red and 26 black cards
13 each of Spades, Hearts, Diamonds, and Clubs
4 each of Aces, Kings, Queens, and Jacks

19. Similarity and Distance
To identify natural groups, we must first define a measure of similarity
(proximity) between objects/entities.
Assume variables (axes in space) are numeric.
Then, if two things are similar, they should be close to each other in the
space.
That is, the distance between them should be small.
But, if two things are dissimilar, they should be well separated from each
other in the space.
That is, the distance between them should be large.
A collection of similar things would therefore likely result in more
cohesive (homogenous) groups than a collection of dissimilar things.
