Data science
Data science is a multidisciplinary field that involves studying and analyzing large sets of data to uncover valuable insights for businesses. It combines principles from mathematics, statistics, artificial intelligence, and computer engineering. Data scientists use various methods and technologies to process both structured and unstructured data, seeking findings based on past events to get future predictions and recommendations. It’s all about extracting meaningful knowledge from data through a scientific approach.
In simple terms, data science means digging deep into a huge pool of data to discover valuable insights. For example, say we have textual data in its raw form. We can use data science to create further text by creating bigram language models.
