The concept that helped me go from bad models to good models: Bias and Variance.
In 4 minutes, I'll share 4 years of experience in managing bias and variance in my machine learning models. Let's go. đź§µ 1. Generalization:
Bias and variance control your models ability to generalize on new, unseen data, not just the data it was trained on. The goal in machine learning is to build models that generalize well. To do so, I manage bias and variance.

When I was first exposed to the Confusion Matrix, I was lost.
There was a HUGE mistake I was making with False Negatives that took me 5 years to fix.
I'll teach you in 5 minutes. Let's dive in. đź§µ 1. The Confusion Matrix
A confusion matrix is a tool often used in machine learning to visualize the performance of a classification model. It's a table that allows you to compare the model's predictions against the actual values.

Bayes' Theorem is a fundamental concept in data science.
But it took me 2 years to understand its importance.
In 2 minutes, I'll share my best findings over the last 2 years exploring Bayesian Statistics. Let's go. 1. Background:
"An Essay towards solving a Problem in the Doctrine of Chances," was published in 1763, two years after Bayes' death. In this essay, Bayes addressed the problem of inverse probability, which is the basis of what is now known as Bayesian probability.

Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is the gold standard in dimensionality reduction.
But PCA is hard to understand for beginners.
Let me destroy your confusion: 1. What is PCA?
PCA is a statistical technique used in data analysis, mainly for dimensionality reduction. It's beneficial when dealing with large datasets with many variables, and it helps simplify the data's complexity while retaining as much variability as possible.
