Data Science
» Data science, also known as data-driven science, is an interdisciplinary
field about scientific methods, processes, and systems to extract
knowledge or insights from data in various forms, either structured or
unstructured
» A data scientist manages big data. They take a large amount of data
points and use their skills in programming, math, and statistics to
organize, and clean them.

4. M Vishnuvardhan
Data Science and its Importance
The concept of data science is to help unify statistics, machine
learning, data analysis, and other related methods. That way people
will better understand and analyze information with data. Data
Science tends to be used to describe predictive modeling, business
intelligence, business analytics, or other uses of data.
Data Science is about uncovering hidden information that may be
able to help companies make smarter choices for their business.
Eg: Spotify recommends new music, Netflix recommends new
movies, spam filter in Gmail, recommendation engine in Amazon,

» Model evaluation
» Presentation & documentation
» Model deployment & maintenance
» Why do the sponsors want the project?
» What do they lack, and what do they need?
» What are they doing to solve the problem, and
why isn’t that good enough?
» What resources will you need ie., staff,
domain experts
» How do the project sponsors plan to deploy
your results?

This step includes identifying the data you need,
exploring it, and conditioning it to be suitable for
analysis
» What data is available to me?
» Will it help me solve the problem?
» Is it enough?
» Is the data quality good enough?

Statistics and machine learning is used during
modelling stage The most common data science
modelling tasks are these:
» Classification
» Scoring

Once you have a model, you need to determine if
it meets your goals:
» Is it accurate enough for your needs? Does it
generalize well?
» Does it perform better than “guess”? Better
than whatever estimate you currently use?
» Do the results of the model make sense in the
context of the problem domain?

Once you have a model that meets your success
criteria, you must present your results to your
project sponsor and other stakeholders. You must
also document the model

model is put into operation. In many organizations
this means the data scientist no longer has
primary responsibility for the day-to-day
operation of the model. But you still should
ensure that the model will run smoothly and
won’t make disastrous unsupervised decisions.
You also want to make sure that the model can be
updated as its environment changes.

Data Science and Big Data
Big data refers to the large group of heterogeneous data that comes from
various sources. This data encompasses all different types of data;
unstructured, semi-structured, and structured information that can be
found easily throughout the internet. Big data includes:
» Structured data: transaction data, OLTP, RDBMS, and other structured
formats.
» Semi-Structured: text files, system log files, XML files, etc.
» Unstructured data: web pages, sensor data, mobile data, online data
sources, digital audio, and video feeds, digital images, tweets, blogs,
emails, social networks, and other sources.
