PySpark Generalized Linear Regression Example

    Generalized linear regression is a linear regression that follows any distribution other than normal distribution. PySpark provides a GeneralizedLinearRegression model that includes Gaussian, Poisson, logistic regression methods to predict regression problems.

    In this tutorial, we'll briefly learn how to fit and predict regression data by using PySpark GeneralizedLinearRegression in Python. The tutorial covers:

1. Preparing the data
2. Prediction and accuracy check
3. Visualizing the results
   
4. Source code listing

   We'll start by loading the required libraries for this tutorial.

Fourier Transform Example with SciPy Functions

    A Fourier transform is a method to decompose signal data in a frequency components. By using this function, we can transform a time domain signal into the frequency domain one and a vice versa. It is widely used in signal processing and many other applications. 

    Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) is an algorithm to transform a discrete (finite-duration) signal data. Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) is an efficient algorithm that implements DFT. 

    SciPy API provides several functions to implement Fourier transform.  

    In this tutorial, we'll briefly learn how to transform and inverse transform a signal data by SciPy API functions. The tutorial covers:

1. Preparing the data
2. Transform with fft()
   
3. Transform with rfft()
4. Inverse transform
   
5. Source code listing

PySpark Decision Tree Classification Example

         PySpark MLlib library provides a DecisionTreeClassifier model to implement classification with decision tree method. A decision tree method is one of the well known and powerful supervised machine learning algorithms that can be used for classification and regression tasks. It is a tree-like, top-down flow learning method to extract rules from the training data. The branches of the tree are based on certain decision outcomes.

    In this tutorial, we'll briefly learn how to fit and classify data by using PySpark DecisionTreeClassifier. The tutorial covers:

1. Preparing the data
2. Prediction and accuracy check
3. Source code listing

   We'll start by loading the required libraries for this tutorial.

MLlib Gradient-boosted Tree Regression Example with PySpark

         PySpark MLlib library provides a GBTRegressor model to implement gradient-boosted tree regression method. Gradient tree boosting is an ensemble of decision trees model to solve regression and classification tasks in machine learning. Improving the weak learners by different set of train data is the main concept of this model. 

    In this tutorial, we'll briefly learn how to fit and predict regression data by using PySpark GBTRegressor in Python. The tutorial covers:

1. Preparing the data
2. Prediction and accuracy check
3. Visualizing the results
   
4. Source code listing

SelectFromModel Feature Selection Example in Python

     Scikit-learn API provides SelectFromModel class for extracting best features of given dataset according to the importance of weights. The SelectFromModel is a meta-estimator that determines the weight importance by comparing to the given threshold value. 

    In this tutorial, we'll briefly learn how to select best features of regression data by using the SelectFromModel in Python. The tutorial covers:
