KDUG #14: Intro to Data Science

Michael Victor, our guest speaker will cover the following:

A Casual Introduction to the Fundamentals of Data Science
Data science is often mentioned alongside analytics, machine learning, artificial intelligence, and statistics, but it is not always clear where it starts, where it ends.
In this introductory session, we will unpack the fundamentals of data science in a practical, casual way. We will look at how it fits into the broader data landscape, the kinds of questions it can help answer, and how data can be used to support better decisions.
The session will end with a demonstration showing how data science methods can be applied to an interesting and fun problem.
