Write a Pandas program to compute the Euclidean distance between two given series.

 

Euclidean distance
From Wikipedia, In mathematics, the Euclidean distance or Euclidean metric is the “ordinary” straight-line distance between two points in Euclidean space. With this distance, Euclidean space becomes a metric space. The associated norm is called the Euclidean norm.

 

Sample Solution :

Python Code :


import pandas as pd
import numpy as np

x = pd.Series([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10])
y = pd.Series([11, 8, 7, 5, 6, 5, 3, 4, 7, 1])

print("Original series:")
print(x)
print(y)
print("nEuclidean distance between two said series:")
print(np.linalg.norm(x-y))

Sample Output:

Original series:
0     1
1     2
2     3
3     4
4     5
5     6
6     7
7     8
8     9
9    10
dtype: int64
0    11
1     8
2     7
3     5
4     6
5     5
6     3
7     4
8     7
9     1
dtype: int64

Euclidean distance between two said series:
16.492422502470642

Two Machine Learning Fields

There are two sides to machine learning:

  • Practical Machine Learning:This is about querying databases, cleaning data, writing scripts to transform data and gluing algorithm and libraries together and writing custom code to squeeze reliable answers from data to satisfy difficult and ill defined questions. It’s the mess of reality.
  • Theoretical Machine Learning: This is about math and abstraction and idealized scenarios and limits and beauty and informing what is possible. It is a whole lot neater and cleaner and removed from the mess of reality.
