Zero Variance-Problem Statement

This document discusses zero-variance features in data. It contains three key points: 1) Variance measures how spread out data values are, and a variance of zero means all data values are identical. 2) There are techniques for removing zero-variance features to transform data for prediction. 3) The problem is to find which columns in a dataset have zero variance and explore techniques to remove zero-variance to allow analysis.

Batch Id: _______________________


Topic: Data Pre-Processing

Variance measures how far a set of data is spread out. A variance of zero indicates that
all the data values are identical. There are various techniques to remove this for
transforming the data into the suitable one for prediction.

Problem statement:
Find which columns of the given dataset with zero variance, explore various techniques used to
remove the zero variance from the dataset to perform certain analysis.

Hints:
For each assignment, the solution should be submitted in the below format
1. Work on each feature of the dataset to create a data dictionary as displayed in the
below image:

2. Consider the Z_dataset.csv dataset


3. Research and perform all possible steps for obtaining solution
4. All the codes (executable programs) should execute without errors
5. Code modularization should be followed
6. Each line of code should have comments explaining the logic and why you are using that
function

Grading Guidelines:

Note: 1. An Assignment submission is considered complete only when successful executable code(s),
and documentation explaining the applied solution and results are provided. Failing to submit either
of them will be considered an invalid submission and will not be considered for evaluation.

2. Assignments submitted after the deadline date will affect your grades.
