14 Top Data Pipeline Key Terms Explained

-
Image
 Here are some key terms commonly used in data pipelines 1. Data Sources Definition: Points where data originates (e.g., databases, APIs, files, IoT devices). Examples: Relational databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL), APIs, cloud storage (S3), streaming data (Kafka), and on-premise systems. 2. Data Ingestion Definition: The process of importing or collecting raw data from various sources into a system for processing or storage. Methods: Batch ingestion, real-time/streaming ingestion. 3. Data Transformation Definition: Modifying, cleaning, or enriching data to make it usable for analysis or storage. Examples: Data cleaning (removing duplicates, fixing missing values). Data enrichment (joining with other data sources). ETL (Extract, Transform, Load). ELT (Extract, Load, Transform). 4. Data Storage Definition: Locations where data is stored after ingestion and transformation. Types: Data Lakes: Store raw, unstructured, or semi-structured data (e.g., S3, Azure Data Lake).

10 Excusive Steps You need for Web Scrapping

-
Here're ten Python technics to clean the scraped data. The scraped Text has unwanted hidden data. So, as part of cleaning it try to remove these ten in your data.

10 Steps for Web scrapping

Data is prime input for text analytics projects. After cleaning, you can feed to Machine/Deep Learning systems.
  1. Removing HTML tags
  2. Tokenization
  3. Removing unnecessary tokens and stop-words
  4. Handling contractions
  5. Correcting spelling errors
  6. Stemming
  7. Lemmatization
  8. Tagging
  9. Chunking
  10. Parsing

10 Technics to Clean Text in Python
10 Technics to Clean Text in Python


1. Removing HTML tags

The unstructured text contains a lot of noise ( data from web pages, blogs, and online repositories.)when you use web/screen scraping. 

The HTML tags, JavaScript, and Iframe tags typically don't add much value to understanding and analyzing text. Our purpose is to remove HTML tags, and other noise.


2. Tokenization

  • Tokens are independent and minimal textual components. And have a definite syntax and semantics. A paragraph of text or a text document has several elements. Those you can further break down into clauses, phrases, and words. 
  • The popular tokenization techniques include sentence and word tokenization. These, you can use to break down a text document (or corpus) into sentences. And each sentence into words. 
  • Thus, tokenization is the process of breaking down or splitting textual data into smaller and more meaningful components called tokens.


Python is popular in Text analytics. Here, you will find various cleaning techniques used in text analytics.

3. Removing Unnecessary Stop Words

Stopwords have little or no significance and are usually removed from a text when processing it. These usually occur most frequently if you aggregate a corpus of text based on the particular tokens and their frequencies. Words like "a," "the," "and," and so on are stopwords.


4. Handling contractions

The best examples of contractions are you'll, it's, etc.

5. Correcting spelling errors

Auto correcting spelling errors. While doing a Google search, you will find it corrects your spelling automatically.

6. Stemming

Here you can reduce words to the root level. The best example is Snowball, this you stem it to root level as Snow and Ball.


7. Lemmatization

Based on the context, bring the words to the root level, and make them meaningful.


8. Tagging

This is the concept of group particular words under a Tag.


9. Chunking

It is of constructing from various words of Verbs, Nouns, Adjectives, etc. Check out here on Data Chunking.


10. Parsing

The data will pass through some syntax rules. The output will then feed to Machine Learning systems. The syntax rules vary from project to project.

Here's a quick resolution for import datetime Python error . The reason is your .py python script name and datetime  are the same. I'll show you how this error happens and its resolution.   Here's the Resolution for ImportError I've created a script called 'datetime.py.' to check whether the minute value is 'odd' or not. During the import of my python script, I got the import error cannot import name datetime. My Script: datetime.py My script's intention is to find whether the minute value is odd or not. Python Logic from datetime import datetime odds = [ 1 , 3 , 5 , 7 , 9 , 11 , 13 , 15 , 17 , 19 , 21 , 23 , 25 , 27 , 29 , 31 , 33 , 35 , 37 , 39 , 41 , 43 , 45 , 47 , 49 , 51 , 53 , 55 , 57 , 59 ] right_this_minute = datetime.today().minute if right_this_minute in odds: print ( "This minute seems a little odd." ) else : print ( "Not an odd minute." ) ImportError I have imported my datetime.py from Linux. It gives an error ...

SQL Query: 3 Methods for Calculating Cumulative SUM

-
Image
SQL provides various constructs for calculating cumulative sums, offering flexibility and efficiency in data analysis. In this article, we explore three distinct SQL queries that facilitate the computation of cumulative sums. Each query leverages different SQL constructs to achieve the desired outcome, catering to diverse analytical needs and preferences. Using Window Functions (e.g., PostgreSQL, SQL Server, Oracle) SELECT id, value, SUM(value) OVER (ORDER BY id) AS cumulative_sum  FROM your_table; This query uses the SUM() window function with the OVER clause to calculate the cumulative sum of the value column ordered by the id column. Using Subqueries (e.g., MySQL, SQLite): SELECT t1.id, t1.value, SUM(t2.value) AS cumulative_sum FROM your_table t1 JOIN your_table t2 ON t1.id >= t2.id GROUP BY t1.id, t1.value ORDER BY t1.id; This query uses a self-join to calculate the cumulative sum. It joins the table with itself, matching rows where the id in the first table is greater than...
