1. Suppose that we have age data including the following numbers in sorted order.
a.) Use smoothing by bin means to smooth the above data, using a bin depth of 3. Illustrate your steps. Comment on the effect of this technique for the given data.
b.) How can you determine outliers in the data?
c.) Use min-max normalization to transform the value 35 for age onto the range [0.0, 1.0].
d.) Use z-score normalization to transform the value 35 for age?
e.) Use normalization by decimal scaling to transform the value 35 for age.
2. Write a function in your preferred language which can take a data vector and do min-max normalization by transforming data onto a desired range.
3. Using information gain on the data in Table 1, do calculations for two levels of a decision tree which decides whether a person is senior or junior.
4. Using the decision tree, generate if-then rules.
