Which libraries do you really need to get started with Machine Learning and why?
๐งต๐
(2 / 19)
- Object-oriented programming in Python:Classes,Objects,Methods
- Lists & List functions
- List comprehension
- List slicing
- String formatting
- List,Dictionaries & Tuples
(3 / 19)
We will talk about๐
- TensorFlow (+ Keras)
- PyTorch
- Pandas
- Numpy
- Matplotlib
- SciKit Learn
- Seaborn
(4 / 19)
1. Pandas
Pandas is a python library that allows you to store and read data from spreadsheets ( .csv, .xlsv files ) in structures called Dataframes.
(5 / 19)
Pandas help you make the data frame itself.
(6 / 19)
Numpy allows you to manipulate the data. It replaces python lists and does the same things, like list slicing for example. However numpy lists are much faster to execute than the default python lists.
(7 / 19)
Matplotlib is a library for plotting data into pie charts, bar charts, and whatever kinds of graphs you can imagine.
(8 / 19)
Seaborn is based on Matplotlib and allows you to visualize data with support for themes (as in color schemes like VS code themes) and more visualization options.
(9 / 19)
Use it when you need to.
(10 / 19)
In machine learning, you will have to work with a lot of messy data! A lot!
These libraries are essential for you so that you can manipulate and analyze data.
(11 / 19)
Do not ignore data analysis and cleaning.
It is even more important than neural network!
(12 / 19)
(14 / 19)
- Both PyTorch and TensorFlow are equally amazing libraries.
(15 / 19)
Scikit learn does a lot of things, from regression to classification, you name it.
It is a great tool to have when working on machine learning.
(16 / 19)
Step 1: Learn Python well.
Step 2: Learn the basics of Numpy, Pandas, and matplotlib.
Step 3: Learn either PyTorch or TensorFlow or SciKit learn at the start.

Mining 101
Typically, when you transfer money using a service like Paypal, they take a small cut for facilitating the exchange.
In cryptocurrencies, people like you and me act as Paypal and facilitate exchanges of cryptocurrency. We get a cut for this just like Paypal did.
In order to make these transactions happen, our computers need to do some calculations which requires a lot of computational power.
A GPU or a Graphics Processing Unit which is typically marketed for gaming workloads can be used to mine cryptocurrencies.
Why do you need a GPU?
Today, there are so many miners that the "difficulty" of mining cryptocurrencies has skyrocketed, which basically means it takes a lot of computational power to mine crypto which GPUs can provide and CPUs cannot.
(โ This is an oversimplification)
If you are interested in the inner workings of how blockchain and cryptocurrency, then I highly suggest that you read this thread by @oliverjumpertz
What actually is a Blockchain?
— Oliver Jumpertz (@oliverjumpertz) February 16, 2021
Bitcoin is breaking record after record, but there must be more to the technology than just crypto, or not? Well, we can take a look at the underlying technology first to understand what it actually provides to us.

The guide that you will see below is based on resources that I came across, and some of my experiences over the past 2 years or so.
I use these resources and they will (hopefully) help you in understanding the theoretical aspects of machine learning very well.
Before diving into maths, I suggest first having solid programming skills in Python.

Are you planning to learn Python for machine learning this year?
— Pratham Prasoon (@PrasoonPratham) February 13, 2021
Here's everything you need to get started.
\U0001f9f5\U0001f447
These are topics of math you'll have to focus on for machine learning๐
- Trigonometry & Algebra
These are the main pre-requisites for other topics on this list.
(There are other pre-requites but these are the most common)
- Linear Algebra
To manipulate and represent data.
- Calculus
To train and optimize your machine learning model, this is very important.

1. NumPy (Numerical Python)
- The most powerful feature of NumPy is the n-dimensional array.
- It contains basic linear algebra functions, Fourier transforms, and tools for integration with other low-level languages.
Ref: https://t.co/XY13ILXwSN
2. SciPy (Scientific Python)
- SciPy is built on NumPy.
- It is one of the most useful libraries for a variety of high-level science and engineering modules like discrete Fourier transform, Linear Algebra, Optimization, and Sparse matrices.
Ref: https://t.co/ALTFqM2VUo
3. Matplotlib
- Matplotlib is a comprehensive library for creating static, animated, and interactive visualizations in Python.
- You can also use Latex commands to add math to your plot.
- Matplotlib makes hard things possible.
Ref: https://t.co/zodOo2WzGx
4. Pandas
- Pandas is for structured data operations and manipulations.
- It is extensively used for data munging and preparation.
- Pandas were added relatively recently to Python and have been instrumental in boosting Pythonโs usage.

>10 hours of interviews for this w/ a dozen or so of top firms in the game. Really grateful to everyone who gave up time & insights, even those that didnt make final cut ๐โโ๏ธ https://t.co/9YOSrl8TdN
For avoidance of doubt, leading tracking analytics firms are now well beyond voronoi diagrams, using more granular measures to assess control and value of space.
This @JaviOnData & @LukeBornn paper from 2018 referenced in the piece demonstrates one method https://t.co/Hx8XTUMpJ5
Bit of this that I nerded out on the most is "ghosting" โ technique used by @counterattack9 & co @stats_insights, among others.
Deep learning models predict how specific players โ operating w/in specific setups โ will move & execute actions. A paper here: https://t.co/9qrKvJ70EN
So many use-cases:
1/ Quickly & automatically spot situations where opponent's defence is abnormally vulnerable. Drill those to death in training.
2/ Swap target player B in for current player A, and simulate. How does target player strengthen/weaken team? In specific situations?
