>stats class
>mfw it's full of CS majors who can't into simple linear algebra trying to become "data scientists"
>>
Stats is a first or second year course, why are you proud?
>>
>>53919033
Y = mx + b

Boom. Algebra. A line. Linear algebra.
>>
linear algebra is probably the easiest college-level mathematics
>>
>>53919321
I thought that control systems and dynamics was the easiest desu.
After calc of course.
>>
I could've probably done this shit in high school
>>
>>53919471
You're not talking about the picture are you?
>>
>>53919499
I am
>>
>>53919530
How would you go about doing it?
>>
>>53919537
Easy
>get data from predefined sources
>put the data in in one of the 100s of already existing graphing programs
>check a few boxes
>>
>>53919582
Not only you can't implement it yourself, you can't even name the algorithm.
>>
>>53919594
I never said I knew all the algorithms and stuff, I'm just saying that I would've been able to understand this if they teached me it in high school.
>>
>>53919648
>I could've probably done this shit in high school
That is a really funny way of saying
>I would've been able to understand this if they teached me it in high school.

>>53919292
>Slope-intercept form
Pleb
>>
>>53919668
Well, this is a shitposting board after all.
>>
>>53919582
Nigga do you even know what that is? It's a machine learning algorithm that clusters data points.
>>
>>53921697
>cluster
And you call CS majors retarded.
>>
>>53919648
Pic in OP looks to depict a linear support vector machine (or maybe logistic regression decision boundary).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Support_vector_machine

Are you saying you could figure that out in high school?
>>
> Leave no child behind.
That's right, bring their dead weight along to ruin education for the few that might actually learn something.
>>
>>53921850
Who do you expect would fund your class of three students?
>>
>>53921730
what is it then?
>>
>>53921730

link from >>53921756:

>The clustering algorithm which provides an improvement to the support vector machines is called support vector clustering[2] and is often used in industrial applications either when data is not labeled or when only some data is labeled as a preprocessing for a classification pass.

Is wikipedia retarded now?

>>53921900
So we need them for their money, but their presence makes the experience worthless.
> And thus we have found a way to put in more money and resources and get a worse result.

>>
>>53922037
>support vector clustering is the same thing as support vector machines
>>
>>53922067
One is a subset of the other, so they kind of are.
>>
>>53919033
can't wait until the data science meme is over.
>>
>>53922126
No. They are two separate algorithms.
>>
>>53921697
k-means Algorithm?
>mfw learned that in an EE class of all things this year at Berkeley
>>
>>53922143
This. It's not even a fucking science.
>>
>>53922143
>can't wait until the statistics meme is over
>>
>>53922037
All the data are labeled dum-dum. That means that this is classification, not clustering.

Clustering is unsupervised, classification is supervised. Support vector clustering is not a common technique at all.
>>
>>53919033
nice excel graph
>>
>>53922569
OP will deliver long before that happens.
>>
>>53919269
>CS major unaware of non-algebra based stats

the memes are real
>>
>>53922613
This. The line could be a bayesian model, something like svm would give you the circle
>>
>>53925366
I'm a chemical engineer
>>
>>53926916
>chemical engineer
Enjoy your no jobs
>>
>>53927189
;_;
Please don't rub it in, I wish I could go back in time and choose mechanical engineering. I only need one more year of work experience for my engineering license, but there are no jobs.
>>
>>53927222
>>53927189
Not necessarily true. If you suck then no jobs but places like DuPont and NASA hire chem
>>
>>53927240
I'm interviewing with Dow next week, hopefully it goes well.
But I'm Canadian and the H1B issues brought up by this election cycle aren't helping me for finding a US job.
>>
>>53927266
Oh, yeah foreign engineers have hard times. But can't you go work in a maple syrup factory or something?
>>
>>53927287
I could but those are mainly in Quebec, and fuck those French assholes
>>
>>53922407
EE with a digital focus is truly the master race these days
>>
>>53927811
Are you me?
I like building circuits though.
