Feature Selection using sklearn

In this post, we will understand how to perform Feature Selection using sklearn.

• Dropping features which have low variance
• Dropping features with zero variance
• Dropping features with variance below the threshold variance
• Univariate feature selection
• Model based feature selection
• Feature Selection using pipeline

Understanding Naive Bayes: A Beginner's Guide with Visual Illustrations & Examples

Thomas Bayes was an English statistician. As Stigler states, Thomas Bayes was born in 1701, with a probability value of 0.8! (link). Bayes' theorem has a useful application in machine learning. His papers were published by his friend, after his death. It is also said that his friend has used the theorem to prove existence of God.
