Exploratory Data Analysis
1.1. EDA Introduction
1.1.2. How Does Exploratory Data Analysis differ from Classical Data Analysis?
|Classical||Classical techniques serve as the probabilistic foundation of science and engineering; the most important characteristic of classical techniques is that they are rigorous, formal, and "objective".|
EDA techniques do not share in that rigor or formality. EDA
techniques make up for that lack of rigor by being very suggestive,
indicative, and insightful about what the appropriate model
EDA techniques are subjective and depend on interpretation which may differ from analyst to analyst, although experienced analysts commonly arrive at identical conclusions.
