Description
Introduction to data science by using tools and writing programs for acquiring, cleaning, analyzing, exploring, and visualizing data; making data-driven inferences and decisions; and effectively communicating results. Learning data manipulation, data analysis with statistics and machine learning, data communication with information visualization, working with big data using scalable techniques.
Four major goals:
- data wrangling: how to acquire, clean, reshape or sample data so that it’s ready for further processing?
- data exploration: how to analyze the signal in a large, noisy dataset?
- prediction: can inferences and decisions be made based on the available data?
- communication: how can findings be effectively communicated to others?
