It has become a buzzword that almost everyone talks about these days. But what is Data Science? In this article, we will demystify Data Science, the role of a Data Scientist and have a look at the tools required to master Data Science. So, let’s start Data Science Tutorial. What is Data Science? “Data Science is about extraction, preparation, analysis, visualization, and maintenance of information. It is a cross-disciplinary field which uses scientific methods and processes to draw insights from data. ”

  3. DataFlair Web Services Pvt. Ltd, Call: +91-84510-97879 +91-91111-33369 ​https://data-flair.training With the emergence of new technologies, there has been an exponential increase in data. This has created an opportunity to analyze and derive meaningful insights from data. It requires special expertise of a ‘Data Scientist’ who can use various statistical & machine learning tools to understand and analyze data. A Data Scientist, specializing in Data Science, not only analyzes the data but also uses​​machine learning algorithms to predict future occurrences of an event​. Therefore, we can understand Data Science as a field that deals with data processing, analysis, and extraction of insights from the data using various statistical methods and computer algorithms. It is a multidisciplinary field that combines mathematics, statistics, and computer science. Why Data Science? So, after knowing what exactly Data Science is, you must explore why Data Science is important. So, data has become the fuel of industries. It is the new

  4. DataFlair Web Services Pvt. Ltd, Call: +91-84510-97879 +91-91111-33369 ​https://data-flair.training electricity. Companies require data to function, grow and improve their businesses. Data Scientists deal with the data in order to assist companies in making proper decisions. The data-driven approach undertaken by the companies with the help of Data Scientists who analyze a large amount of data to derive meaningful insights. These insights will be helpful for the companies who wish to analyze themselves and their performance in the market. Other than commercial industries, healthcare industries also use Data Science. where the technology is in huge demand to recognize microscopic tumors and deformities at an early stage of diagnosis. The number of roles for Data Scientists has grown by ​650%​ since 2012. About 11.5 Million jobs​ will be ​created by 2026​ according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Also, the job of Data Scientist ranks among top emerging jobs on Linkedin. All the statistics point towards the growing demand for Data Scientists. Role of a Data Scientist You might want to know who is a Data Scientist and what are his/her roles in different fields. A Data Scientist deals with both unstructured and structured data. The unstructured data is present in a raw format that requires extensive data pre-processing, cleaning and organization in order to impart a meaningful structure to a dataset. The Data Scientist then investigates this organized data and analyzes it thoroughly to derive information from it using various statistical methodologies. We use these statistical methods to describe, visualize and hypothesize information from the data. Then with the usage of advanced machine learning algorithms, the data scientist predicts the occurrence of events and takes data-driven decisions. A​ Data Scientist​ deploys vast arrays of tools and practices to recognize redundant patterns within the data. These tools range from SQL, Hadoop to

  5. DataFlair Web Services Pvt. Ltd, Call: +91-84510-97879 +91-91111-33369 ​https://data-flair.training Weka, R, and Python. Data Scientists usually act as consultants employed by companies where they participate in various decision-making processes and creation of strategies. In other words, Data Scientists use meaningful insights from data to assist companies in taking smarter business decisions. For example – Companies like Netflix, Google and Amazon are using Data Science to develop powerful recommendation systems for their users. Similarly, various financial companies are using predictive analytics and forecasting methods to predict stock prices. Data Science has helped to create smarter systems that can take autonomous decisions based on historical datasets. Through its assimilation with emerging technologies like Computer Vision, Natural Language Processing and Reinforcement Learning, it has manifested itself to form a greater picture of​Artificial Intelligence​. Solving Problems with Data Science When solving a real-world problem with Data Science, the first step towards solving it starts with Data Cleaning and Preprocessing. When a Data Scientist is provided with a dataset, it may be in an unstructured format with various inconsistencies. Organizing the data and removing erroneous information makes it easier to analyze and draw insights. This process involves the removal of redundant data, the transformation of data in a prescribed format, handling missing values etc. A Data Scientist analyzes the data through various statistical procedures. In particular, two types of procedures used are: ● Descriptive Statistics ● Inferential Statistics Assume that you are a Data Scientist working for a company that manufactures cell phones. You have to analyze customers using the mobile

  6. DataFlair Web Services Pvt. Ltd, Call: +91-84510-97879 +91-91111-33369 ​https://data-flair.training phones of your company. In order to do so, you will first take a thorough look at the data and understand various trends and patterns involved. In the end, you will summarize the data and present it in the form of a graph or a chart. You therefore, apply Descriptive Statistics to solve the problem. You will then draw ‘inferences’ or conclusions from the data. We will understand inferential statistics through the following example – Assume that you wish to find out a number of defects that occurred during manufacturing. However, individual testing of mobile phones can take time. Therefore, you will consider a sample of the given phones and make a generalization about the number of defective phones in the total sample. Now, you have to predict the sales of mobile phones over a period of two years. As a result, you will use Regression Algorithms. Based on the given historical sales, you will use regression algorithms to predict the sales over time. Furthermore, you wish to analyze if customers will purchase the product based on their annual salary, age, gender, and credit score. You will use historical data to find out whether customers will buy (1) or not (0). Since there are two outputs or ‘classes’, you will use a Binary Classification Algorithm. Also, if there are more than two output classes we use Multivariate Classification Algorithm to solve the problem. Both of the above-stated problems are part of ‘Supervised Learning’. There are also instances of ‘unlabeled’ data. In this, there is no segregation of output in fixed classes as mentioned above. Suppose that you have to find clusters of potential customers and leads based on their socio-economic background. Since you do not have a fixed set of classes in your historical data, you will use the Clustering Algorithm to identify clusters or sets of potential clients. Clustering is an ‘Unsupervised Learning’ algorithm. Self Driving cars have become a trending technology. The principle behind the self-driving car is autonomy, that is, being able to take decisions without

  7. DataFlair Web Services Pvt. Ltd, Call: +91-84510-97879 +91-91111-33369 ​https://data-flair.training human interference. The traditional computers required human input to yield output. Reinforcement Learning has solved the problem of human-dependence. Reinforcement Learning is about taking specific actions to accumulate maximum reward. You can understand this with the following instance: Assume that you are training a dog to fetch ball. Then you reward the dog with a treat or reward each time it fetches the ball. You do not give it a treat if it does not fetch the ball. The dog will realize the reward of treats if it fetches the ball back. Reinforcement Learning uses the same principle. We give a reward to the agent based on its action and it will try to maximize the reward. A Data Scientist will require tools and software to tackle the above-mentioned problems. We will now take a look at some of the tools that a Data Scientist uses to those problems. Tools for Data Science Data Scientists use traditional statistical methodologies that form the core backbone of Machine Learning algorithms. They also use Deep Learning algorithms to generate robust predictions. Data Scientists use the following tools and programming languages​: i. R R is a scripting language​ that is specifically tailored for statistical computing.
