It’s so weird to work in python when I’ve been doing mostly java and c nonesense this year bc it just feels so wrong to have no semicolons.

It also doesn’t help when I don’t have the correct library and so my IDE is highlighting the end of a line as if it needs a semi colon

Ok but like… I hate to be that guy, but R has libraries for literally everything data sci/stats related you could need. I was doing stats hw earlier, (yes I know general stats isn’t exactly the same as bio informatics) and for literally every problem, the solution was literally 1 line of R code, and it took like 2 mins to identify the proper function and apply it.

I'm the best language for bioinformatics and if you even mention R I will murder you in your sleep

Hi! I’m a student currently learning computer science in college and would love it if you had any advice for a cool personal project to do? Thanks!

Personal Project Ideas

Hiya!! 💕

It's so cool that you're a computer science student, and with that, you have plenty of options for personal projects that can help with learning more from what they teach you at college. I don't have any experience being a university student however 😅

Someone asked me a very similar question before because I shared my projects list and they asked how I come up with project ideas - maybe this can inspire you too, here's the link to the post [LINK]

However, I'll be happy to share some ideas with you right now. Just a heads up: you can alter the projects to your own specific interests or goals in mind. Though it's a personal project meaning not an assignment from school, you can always personalise it to yourself as well! Also, I don't know the level you are, e.g. beginner or you're pretty confident in programming, if the project sounds hard, try to simplify it down - no need to go overboard!!

But here is the list I came up with (some are from my own list):

Personal Finance Tracker

A web app that tracks personal finances by integrating with bank APIs. You can use Python with Flask for the backend and React for the frontend. I think this would be great for learning how to work with APIs and how to build web applications 🏦

Online Food Ordering System

A web app that allows users to order food from a restaurant's menu. You can use PHP with Laravel for the backend and Vue.js for the frontend. This helps you learn how to work with databases (a key skill I believe) and how to build interactive user interfaces 🙌🏾

Movie Recommendation System

I see a lot of developers make this on Twitter and YouTube. It's a machine-learning project that recommends movies to users based on their past viewing habits. You can use Python with Pandas, Scikit-learn, and TensorFlow for the machine learning algorithms. Obviously, this helps you learn about how to build machine-learning models, and how to use libraries for data manipulation and analysis 📊

Image Recognition App

This is more geared towards app development if you're interested! It's an Android app that uses image recognition to identify objects in a photo. You can use Java or Kotlin for the Android development and TensorFlow for machine learning algorithms. Learning how to work with image recognition and how to build mobile applications - which is super cool 👀

Social Media Platform

(I really want to attempt this one soon) A web app that allows users to post, share, and interact with each other's content. Come up with a cool name for it! You can use Ruby on Rails for the backend and React for the frontend. This project would be great for learning how to build full-stack web applications (a plus cause that's a trend that companies are looking for in developers) and how to work with user authentication and authorization (another plus)! 🎭

Text-Based Adventure Game

If you're interested in game developments, you could make a simple game where users make choices and navigate through a story by typing text commands. You can use Python for the game logic and a library like Pygame for the graphics. This project would be great for learning how to build games and how to work with input/output. 🎮

Weather App

Pretty simple project - I did this for my apprenticeship and coding night classes! It's a web app that displays weather information for a user's location. You can use Node.js with Express for the backend and React for the frontend. Working with APIs again, how to handle asynchronous programming, and how to build responsive user interfaces! 🌈

Online Quiz Game

A web app that allows users to take quizzes and compete with other players. You could personalise it to a module you're studying right now - making a whole quiz application for it will definitely help you study! You can use PHP with Laravel for the backend and Vue.js for the frontend. You get to work with databases, build real-time applications, and maybe work with user authentication. 🧮

Chatbot

(My favourite, I'm currently planning for this one!) A chatbot that can answer user questions and provide information. You can use Python with Flask for the backend and a natural language processing library like NLTK for the chatbot logic. If you want to mauke it more beginner friendly, you could use HTML, CSS and JavaScript and have hard-coded answers set, maybe use a bunch of APIs for the answers etc! This project would be great because you get to learn how to build chatbots, and how to work with natural language processing - if you go that far! 🤖

Another place I get inspiration for more web frontend dev projects is on Behance and Pinterest - on Pinterest search for like "Web design" or "[Specific project] web design e.g. shopping web design" and I get inspiration from a bunch of pins I put together! Maybe try that out!

I hope this helps and good luck with your project!

Understanding Outliers in Machine Learning and Data Science

In machine learning and data science, an outlier is like a misfit in a dataset. It's a data point that stands out significantly from the rest of the data. Sometimes, these outliers are errors, while other times, they reveal something truly interesting about the data. Either way, handling outliers is a crucial step in the data preprocessing stage. If left unchecked, they can skew your analysis and even mess up your machine learning models.

In this article, we will dive into:

1. What outliers are and why they matter.

2. How to detect and remove outliers using the Interquartile Range (IQR) method.

3. Using the Z-score method for outlier detection and removal.

4. How the Percentile Method and Winsorization techniques can help handle outliers.

This guide will explain each method in simple terms with Python code examples so that even beginners can follow along.

1. What Are Outliers?

An outlier is a data point that lies far outside the range of most other values in your dataset. For example, in a list of incomes, most people might earn between $30,000 and $70,000, but someone earning $5,000,000 would be an outlier.

Why Are Outliers Important?

Outliers can be problematic or insightful:

Problematic Outliers: Errors in data entry, sensor faults, or sampling issues.

Insightful Outliers: They might indicate fraud, unusual trends, or new patterns.

Types of Outliers

1. Univariate Outliers: These are extreme values in a single variable.

Example: A temperature of 300°F in a dataset about room temperatures.

2. Multivariate Outliers: These involve unusual combinations of values in multiple variables.

Example: A person with an unusually high income but a very low age.

3. Contextual Outliers: These depend on the context.

Example: A high temperature in winter might be an outlier, but not in summer.

2. Outlier Detection and Removal Using the IQR Method

The Interquartile Range (IQR) method is one of the simplest ways to detect outliers. It works by identifying the middle 50% of your data and marking anything that falls far outside this range as an outlier.

Steps:

1. Calculate the 25th percentile (Q1) and 75th percentile (Q3) of your data.

2. Compute the IQR:

{IQR} = Q3 - Q1

Q1 - 1.5 \times \text{IQR}

Q3 + 1.5 \times \text{IQR} ] 4. Anything below the lower bound or above the upper bound is an outlier.

Python Example:

import pandas as pd

# Sample dataset

data = {'Values': [12, 14, 18, 22, 25, 28, 32, 95, 100]}

df = pd.DataFrame(data)

# Calculate Q1, Q3, and IQR

Q1 = df['Values'].quantile(0.25)

Q3 = df['Values'].quantile(0.75)

IQR = Q3 - Q1

# Define the bounds

lower_bound = Q1 - 1.5 * IQR

upper_bound = Q3 + 1.5 * IQR

# Identify and remove outliers

outliers = df[(df['Values'] < lower_bound) | (df['Values'] > upper_bound)]

print("Outliers:\n", outliers)

filtered_data = df[(df['Values'] >= lower_bound) & (df['Values'] <= upper_bound)]

print("Filtered Data:\n", filtered_data)

Key Points:

The IQR method is great for univariate datasets.

It works well when the data isn’t skewed or heavily distributed.

3. Outlier Detection and Removal Using the Z-Score Method

The Z-score method measures how far a data point is from the mean, in terms of standard deviations. If a Z-score is greater than a certain threshold (commonly 3 or -3), it is considered an outlier.

Formula:

Z = \frac{(X - \mu)}{\sigma}

 is the data point,

 is the mean of the dataset,

 is the standard deviation.

Python Example:

import numpy as np

# Sample dataset

data = {'Values': [12, 14, 18, 22, 25, 28, 32, 95, 100]}

df = pd.DataFrame(data)

# Calculate mean and standard deviation

mean = df['Values'].mean()

std_dev = df['Values'].std()

# Compute Z-scores

df['Z-Score'] = (df['Values'] - mean) / std_dev

# Identify and remove outliers

threshold = 3

outliers = df[(df['Z-Score'] > threshold) | (df['Z-Score'] < -threshold)]

print("Outliers:\n", outliers)

filtered_data = df[(df['Z-Score'] <= threshold) & (df['Z-Score'] >= -threshold)]

print("Filtered Data:\n", filtered_data)

Key Points:

The Z-score method assumes the data follows a normal distribution.

It may not work well with skewed datasets.

4. Outlier Detection Using the Percentile Method and Winsorization

Percentile Method:

In the percentile method, we define a lower percentile (e.g., 1st percentile) and an upper percentile (e.g., 99th percentile). Any value outside this range is treated as an outlier.

Winsorization:

Winsorization is a technique where outliers are not removed but replaced with the nearest acceptable value.

Python Example:

from scipy.stats.mstats import winsorize

import numpy as np

Sample data

data = [12, 14, 18, 22, 25, 28, 32, 95, 100]

Calculate percentiles

lower_percentile = np.percentile(data, 1)

upper_percentile = np.percentile(data, 99)

Identify outliers

outliers = [x for x in data if x < lower_percentile or x > upper_percentile]

print("Outliers:", outliers)

# Apply Winsorization

winsorized_data = winsorize(data, limits=[0.01, 0.01])

print("Winsorized Data:", list(winsorized_data))

Key Points:

Percentile and Winsorization methods are useful for skewed data.

Winsorization is preferred when data integrity must be preserved.

Final Thoughts

Outliers can be tricky, but understanding how to detect and handle them is a key skill in machine learning and data science. Whether you use the IQR method, Z-score, or Wins

orization, always tailor your approach to the specific dataset you’re working with.

By mastering these techniques, you’ll be able to clean your data effectively and improve the accuracy of your models.
