Machine Learning
Machine learning (ML) is the study of algorithms and statistical models that allow computer systems to perform tasks without explicit instructions by relying on patterns and inference. ML algorithms build mathematical models from sample "training data" to make predictions and decisions without being programmed for specific tasks. These models automatically analyze large datasets to identify the most relevant information, which can then be used to automatically make predictions and help people make faster, more accurate decisions.

The document provides information and examples about calculating the mean, median, and mode of data sets, which are measures of central tendency. It explains that the mean is the average, the median is the middle number, and the mode is the number that occurs most frequently. Several examples are given of calculating the mean, median, and mode of different data sets and determining which measure best describes a particular data. The document concludes by giving homework problems involving calculating measures of central tendency and determining perimeters of rectangles.
Grouped Mean Median Mode
A coffee shop conducted a two-day survey to determine the average number of cappuccinos made per hour. A histogram showed the frequency of cappuccinos made within various hourly intervals. To calculate the average, interval midpoints were determined and multiplied by the frequencies. The total of these products was divided by the total frequency, determining that the average number of cappuccinos made per hour was 10.
Mean Median Mode
This document defines and provides instructions for calculating mean, median, mode, and range for a set of numbers. It defines each term, explains the steps to calculate each, and provides examples of calculating mean, median, mode, and range for practice number sets.
Measure OF Central Tendency
The document discusses various measures of central tendency used in statistics. The three most common measures are the mean, median, and mode. The mean is the sum of all values divided by the number of values and is affected by outliers. The median is the middle value when data is arranged from lowest to highest. The mode is the most frequently occurring value in a data set. Each measure has advantages and disadvantages depending on the type of data distribution. The mean is the most reliable while the mode can be undefined. In symmetrical distributions, the mean, median and mode are equal, but the mean is higher than the median for positively skewed data and lower for negatively skewed data.
Mean, median, mode, & range ppt
This document defines and provides examples for calculating the mean, median, mode, and range of a data set. It explains that the mean is calculated by adding all values and dividing by the number of values, the median involves ordering values and selecting the middle one, the mode is the most frequent value, and the range is the difference between the highest and lowest values. Examples are given for each statistical measure.
Mean, Median, Mode: Measures of Central Tendency
There are three common measures of central tendency: mean, median, and mode. The mean is the average value found by dividing the sum of all values by the total number of values. The median is the middle value when values are arranged from lowest to highest. The mode is the value that occurs most frequently. Each measure provides a single number to represent the central or typical value in a data set.
Applications of mean ,mode & median
Mean, median, and mode are measures of central tendency that can be used to describe data sets. The mean is the average and includes all values, making it best for symmetrical distributions. The median is preferred for skewed distributions as it is not affected by outliers. The mode identifies the most frequent outcome and is useful for categorical preference data, though it can be problematic if there are multiple or outlier modes.
Measures of central tendency
Here are the modes for the three examples:
1. The mode is 3. This value occurs most frequently among the number of errors committed by the typists.
2. The mode is 82. This value occurs most frequently among the number of fruits yielded by the mango trees.
3. The mode is 12 and 15. These values occur most frequently among the students' quiz scores.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
