(iii) Connects with emotions: Stories tap into our emotions, making data resonate on a deeper level and leaving a lasting impression.

(iv) Enhances decision-making: Data storytelling helps people understand complex information and context, enabling informed and data-driven decisions.
 
Q18What is Design Thinking? List its main stages.4
 Design Thinking is an iterative, human-centered approach to problem-solving. It focuses on understanding users’ needs, exploring solutions, and iteratively refining them based on feedback.

The main stages of Design Thinking are:
(i) Empathize: Understand the problem from the user’s perspective.
(ii) Define: Clearly define the problem based on user needs and observations.
(iii) Ideate: Brainstorm and generate creative solutions to the problem.
(iv) Prototype: Develop quick, tangible representations of potential solutions.
(v) Test: Gather user feedback on the prototypes to refine and improve the solution.
 
Q19Explain the “Design/Building the Model” step of the AI Model lifecycle in detail.4
 Once the relevant projects have been selected and properly scoped, the next step of the machine learning lifecycle is the Design or Build phase, which can take from a few days to multiple months, depending on the nature of the project.

The Design phase is essentially an iterative process comprising all the steps relevant to building the AI or machine learning model:
1. data acquisition,
2. exploration,
3. preparation,
4. cleaning,
5. feature engineering,
6. testing and running a set of models to try to predict behaviors or discover insights in the data.

During this phase, we need to evaluate the various AI development platforms, e.g.:
1. Open languages — Python is the most popular, with R and Scala also in the mix.
2. Open frameworks — Scikit-learn, XGBoost, TensorFlow, etc.
3. Approaches and techniques — Classic ML techniques from regression all the way to state-of-theart GANs and RL
4. Productivity-enhancing capabilities — Visual modelling, AutoAI to help with feature engineering, algorithm selection and hyperparameter optimization
5. Development tools — DataRobot, H2O, Watson Studio, Azure ML Studio, Sagemaker, Anaconda, etc.
 
Q20Expand and explain the term MSE. Give the mathematical formula to calculate MSE. Why use MSE? Briefly discuss.4
 Mean Square Error (MSE) is the most commonly used regression loss function. MSE is the sum of squared distances between our target variable and predicted values.
Mathematical Formula to calculate MSE:

Why use MSE?
MSE is sensitive towards outliers and given several examples with the same input feature values, the optimal prediction will be their mean target value.

This should be compared with the Mean Absolute Error, where the optimal prediction is the median.

MSE is thus good to use if you believe that your target data, conditioned on the input, is normally distributed around a mean value, and when it’s important to penalize outliers extra much.
 
Q21(a) Why Storytelling is so powerful and cross-cultural? Explain.4
 (a) Storytelling is a powerful and cross-cultural tool for communication and understanding for several reasons:

Universality of Human Experience: At their core, stories tap into the fundamental experiences that make us human: love, loss, triumph, conflict, and the search for meaning. These themes resonate across cultures even when specific details change.

Emotional Connection: Stories work by engaging our emotions, and fostering empathy for characters and their situations. This emotional connection transcends cultural barriers, allowing the audience to relate to an experience even if it’s not directly theirs.

Pattern Recognition: The human brain is wired to understand the world through stories. We look for patterns, causality, and narratives to make sense of complex information. Stories offer this structure, making concepts easier to understand and memorize.

Collective Memory and Identity: Stories often reflect cultural values, beliefs, and history. By sharing stories, communities across the globe preserve their traditions, reinforce their shared identity, and pass down important knowledge to future generations.
 
Q21. (b) Which of the following is a better data story? Give reasons.  

 
 Option (b) Second (Image 2) data story is better because it has more observations related to the data. It will help to create a more engaging and captivating story.
