I am an aspiring AI/ML-researcher slash data scientist, currently exploring the space and discovering what I want to discover. I'll be using this space to share random thoughts, discoveries, and blog-post-esque Jupyter Notebooks.

Imagine that for each of a school's programs, demographic "A" is accepted at a higher rate than demographic "B". Does that mean that "A" was accepted to the school at a higher rate than "B" overall? Nope! A brief and intuitive description of Simpson's Paradox, primarily to explain it to myself.
