    Introduction to Data

    Science
    AGENDA
    • Defining Data Science
    • What Does a Data Science Professional Do?
    • Data Science in Business
    • Use Cases for Data Science
    • Installation of R and R studio
    DEFINING DATA SCIENCE
    • Data Science deals with the science and algorithms related to
    data.
    • Data generated from various sort of sources.
    • Report says, “Every day, approximately 2 quintillion bytes of
    data is generated. If it grows at this pace, then by the next 3
    years, it is expected that 2MB of data will be created every
    second for every individual on this planet.”
    • Last 2 years witnessing the creation of 90% of data over the
    globe.
    • Data has two sources:
    • Structured
    • Unstructured
    • Structured sources include information that is with the
    compatible relational database.
    • E.g. ATM transactions, Flight Tickets which enable SQL
    to
    make changes in them.
    • Unstructured data is generated from tweets and
    comments on social media, audio and video files which the
    SQL cannot process.
    DEFINITION
    “ Data Science is a broad field which is an assembly of scientific
    techniques, methods, processes used to clean the data and then
    extract some useful patterns and insights in form of
    visualizations.”
    • Visualizations are crucial to make important business decisions
    and come up with strategies that are instrumental for
    organization’s well-being.
    ROLE OF DATA SCIENCE
    ON STATISTICS
    • Statistics
    • Mathematics
    • Computer Science
    • Data Analysis
    • Critical Thinking
    • Problem Solving
    • Machine Learning
    • Data Visualization
    APPLICATIONS
    • Data Science has tons of applications in real-world
    implementation.
    • Recommender Systems
    – Content based – keeps track of users watching habits.
    – Collaborative based – recognizes users with similar tastes.
    • Voice and Image Recognition
    • Spam and Fraud Detection

    • Many more…….
    DATA SCIENTISTS AND THEIR ROLE
    • Data Scientist is a Rockstar!!!
    • A Data Scientist is an individual who has the power and freedom to
    experiment with tons of different kinds of data.
    • Based on knowledge of:
    – Mathematics
    – Problem solving
    – Critical thinking
    – Careful analysis
    WHAT DOES DATA SCIENCE
    PROFESSIONAL DO?
    DATA ANALYST V/S DATA SCIENTIST
    • Data Analyst has a lot to do with converting the data into a
    structured format in order to process it further.
    • Focus more on Data Mining and Data Auditing
    • Data mining involves retrieving information from large databases with
    the help of SQL to extract new data/information.
    • Data auditing involves checking the essence of data and trying to figure
    out if the data is
    capable enough for gaining useful insights or not.
    DATA ANALYST V/S DATA SCIENTIST
    • Data Scientist take the clean data and trying to gain
    some meaningful insights.

    • An algorithm either from classification or regression is


    implemented in order to create a model and make it
    sustainable enough to gain some business insights with
    the help of visualization tools.
