Percentiles in Machine Learning

Tram Ho

Hello guys, today I want to introduce to you what is Percentile in Machine Learning so that you can better understand these concepts and apply it better in practice =)) I think the opening note is also good. quite a word already. Well, I don’t like to write much because I don’t have much words =)) Now let’s start. Let’s go!!

1. What are Percentiles?

Percentiles is a number that describes a certain percentage value of values ​​lower than it.

Reading the definition, perhaps many of you are still confused? Now let’s go directly to the example to make it easier to understand!

Example 1: Suppose we have a series of cakes from all 21 shops sold in a day in a county

Result: 43.0

The above result tells us that 75% of the shops have the number of cakes sold in a day less than 43 or in other words the number 43 is greater than 75% of the value contained in the list of cakes sold in a day. of 21 stores.

Write here, I don’t know if you understand yet =)) If you don’t understand, continue with Example 2 below. Similar to Example 1, but I write in a different wording.

Example 2: Similar to Example 1, We want to find the value at which it is greater than 85% of the shops with the number of cakes sold in 1 day

Result: 50.0

Done that

Bye, see you soon!
