BIG NEWS: #ChatGPT breaks #Python vs #R Barriers in Data Science!

Data science teams everywhere rejoice.

A mind-blowing thread (with a FULL chatgpt prompt walkthrough). 🧵

#datascience #rstats
It's NOT R VS Python ANYMORE!

This is 1 example of how ChatGPT can speed up data science & GET R & PYTHON people working together.

(it blew my mind)
This example combines #R, #Python, and #Docker.

I created this example in under 10 minutes from start to finish.
I’m an R guy.

And I prefer doing my business research & analysis in R.

It's awesome. It has:

1. Tidyverse - data wrangling + visualization
2. Tidymodels - Machine Learning
3. Shiny - Apps
But the rest of my team prefers Python.

And they don't like R... it's just weird to them.

So I wanted to see if I could show them how we could work together...
Let’s start with a prompt.

I asked chatgpt to find a data set that I used for this example. Image
...ChatGPT found it... Image
... And gave me this code to read the data... Image
I prefer the tidyverse, so I asked Chatgpt to update the code. Image
That looks better. Image
With the data in hand, it’s time for some Data Science.

I asked this simple question. Image
ChatGPT's response was impressive. Image
But, even though I’m an R guy, my team uses Python for Deployment…

In the past, that’s a huge problem.

(resulting in days of translations from R to Python with Google and StackOverflow)
But now, that’s 1 minute of effort with chatGPT.

Can I show you?
I asked chatgpt to convert the R script to python... Image
And in 10 seconds chatgpt made this python code with pandas and scikit learn. Image
ChatGPT did in 10 seconds something that would have taken me 2 hours.

But let’s continue.

The reason we had to convert to Python is for “deployment”

Deployment is just a fancy word for allowing others to access my model so they can use it on-demand.
So I asked chatGPT this: Image
And ChatGPT made me a Python API using FastAPI. Image
But this code is useless…

… Without a docker environment.

So I asked chatGPT to make one: Image
And chatGPT delivered my Docker Environment's Dockerfile: Image
So in under 10 minutes, I had ChatGPT:

1. Make my research script in R.

2. Create my production script in Python for my Team

3. And create the API + Docker File to deploy it.
But when I showed my Python team, instead of excited...

...They were worried.

And I said, "Listen. There's nothing to be afraid of."

"ChatGPT is a productivity enhancer."

They didn't believe me.
My Conclusion:

You have a choice. You can rule AI.

Or, you can let AI rule you.

What do you think the better choice is?
If you want help, I'd like you to join me on a free #ChatGPT for #DataScientists Workshop on April 26th. And I will help you Rule AI.

What's the next step?

Python has powerful time series libraries.

Case in point: skforecast

Let me explain: Image
Skforecast is a Python library for time series forecasting using machine learning models.

Skforecast works with any regressor compatible with the scikit-learn API, including popular options like LightGBM, XGBoost, CatBoost, Keras, and many others. Image
skforecast shines with probabilistic forecasting.

When trying to anticipate future values, most forecasting models try to predict what will be the most likely value.

This is called point forecasting.

My favorite R package for ultra-fast exploratory analysis: Image
The R package is called correlationfunnel.

Yes, I built it.
What correlationfunnel does is:

* Speeds Up Exploratory Data Analysis

* Improves Feature Selection

* Gets You To Business Insights Faster Image

The best beginner book on time series?

FPP: Forecasting Principles and Practice

Let's dive in: Image
Some may consider FPP the bible of time series.

I agree.

Start with FPP Version 2 or 3, and you won't go wrong.

This is what I like:
1. Time Series Visualizations

There's no better intuition for time series than a visualization.

- Time Plots
- Seasonal Plots
- ACF Plots

All are absolutely critical to understanding time series patterns. Image

BEAST: A Bayesian Ensemble Algorithm for Change-Point Detection and Time Series Decomposition in R

Let's explore: Image
1. What is BEAST?

BEAST stands for Bayesian Estimator of Abrupt change, Seasonality, and Trend.

But what does that mean?
According to the authors, BEAST is a fast, generic Bayesian model averaging algorithm to decompose time series or 1D sequential data into individual components, such as abrupt changes, trends, and periodic/seasonal variations

I used to struggle with working with Time Series.

After 10 years, I mastered it.

Then I spent 3 years making this R package so you can too: Image
The R package is timetk. I built it to make your life easier when working with Time Series:

- Plotting (Visualization)
- Data Wrangling
- Correlation
- Seasonality
- Imputation
- Outliers (Anomalies)
- Feature engineering
- Cross Validation
I'll focus on Time Series Plotting today.

1. Plotting Time Series: Use plot_time_series() Image

R is crazy good at forecasting.

Just learn this R package: Image
The R package is modeltime (and yes, I created it).

Modeltime's goal is to make high-performance time series analysis easier, faster, and more scalable in R. Image
1. How modeltime works

Modeltime leverages the Tidymodels framework (like scikit learn but in R) to open up:

- ARIMA
- Exponential Smoothing
- Prophet
- Linear Regression
- Elastic Net
- XGBoost
(and more) Image
