Current study topics: Data Science, Analytics, Machine Learning, Python,/R,Financial Math, Linear Algebra for Financial Engineering, Statistical Inference, Actuarial and Quantitative Finance topics
DScience - 11 July 2024 Skills, Tools, Technologies, Practitioners This is the first of a number of posts dealing with my career transition activities into Data Science that I have decided to post here. I am hoping my continuing lessons and learning activities can be of benefit to others considering such a change. Additionally, passing along locations of pitfalls might well be of use to others. And I am always looking for considered advice and experiences! The last several years has seen an explosion in the data science field. What kind of skills does this field require to be successful? Data scientists need a diverse set of skills, tools, and aptitude in technologies to effectively gather, process, analyze, and interpret large amounts of data. Here is a summary of those. 1. Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) Techniques to understand data patterns and distributions 2. Data cleaning and preprocessing Before stored data can be used to draw conclusions, issues such as missing values in the columns of a dataset, data needing to be transformed and normalized must be addresssed. 3. Data Scientests must be conversant in statistical testing. Chi-squared tests, t-tests, z-scores, etc. Fully understanding hypothesis testing, p-values and confidence intervals is critical as well as regression testing issues and correlation identification. 4. Model selection and evaluation is generally the next block of skills that are needed (including R/Python). Different datasets and different goals of the analysis require model selection. 5. Predictive modeling is often needed in order to perform predictions with the model. This knowledge and abilities however must be linked to the current tools and technologies available. Advances in data science would not have been possible without advances in capabilities of tools and technologies. TOOLS AND TECHNOLOGIES Python, R, SQL, pandas, NumPy, scikit-learn, TensorFlow, MathPlotLib, Plotly, Tableau, Power BI, Hadoop, Spark, AWS, MS Azure, Pycharm, Jupyter Notebok are all “players” in what tools and technologies are involved with Data Science activities. SUMMARY Perhaps the most important skills, tools and technologies used in data science are: 1. Analytical skills. Every data science project involves the extraction of data; usually large amounts of data. The analysis of the data however, requires a very specific and not easily found set of skills. “What have I missed in the model generation? There just seems to be something that is missing in the analysis.” 2. Life-long and QUICK learner. Good data scientists are ALWAYS looking to improve their analytic skills. They are ALWAYS sharpening their statistical and mathematical skills. Next post: I will describe the Data Science certification program that I am in. Some people pursue advanced master degrees in Data Science. I am pursuing the certification route.

Data Analyst | Power BI, SQL, Excel, Python | Transforming Raw Data into Actionable Insights | Ex-Wipro
Understanding different types of Data - Structured | Unstructured | Semi-structured. As data analysts, data scientists, and data engineers, we work on gathering, transforming, generating insights, and building predictive algorithms with data. Have you ever thought about different types of data like data types in other programming languages? For instance, in Python, we have int, float, str, list, etc. Knowing the types of data is crucial for data professionals as it helps in choosing the right storage solutions, data processing techniques, and analysis methods based on the nature of the data. Structured: - The most common type of data used is structured data. - It is also known as relational data. - Letters and numbers are organized into columns and rows for simplified search and processing. - It is stored in a Microsoft Excel table that is familiar to us. Larger scale data may be stored in a relational database, like an Azure SQL database. - Structured data is typically quantitative and stored in relational databases and data warehouses. - Structured Query Language (SQL) is used to query relational databases. - Some applications where relational data is used include customer relationship management, reservations, and inventory management systems. Unstructured: - Unstructured data doesn't have a predefined structure or format. - It is often more suitable for qualitative analysis and is stored in non-relational databases and data lakes. - Examples of this type of data are text documents, audio & video files, social media posts, and images which require advanced techniques like NLP or image recognition for analysis. Semi-structured: - It is not as organized as structured data and is not stored in a relational database. - Examples include XML files, JSON data, and data with key-value pairs. - It is often stored in NoSQL databases like MongoDB.

Founder & CEO, Aneu | AI, Space, Sustainability & Social Entrepreneurship | Let’s go break some business models. 🚀🤖
Setting priorities is a data science problem. It’s easy to say “set your priorities and stick to them.” But not only is that an oversimplification - it might also be bad advice. This challenge of setting priorities (and sticking with them) often boils down to “Resource Allocation” - a concept from the field of data science that’s been studied extensively over the last few decades. So let’s steal some tricks from data science to sort it out! (No Ph.D required! 😉) First, Identify Your Constraints: This is where linear programming comes into play. It's a method used by data scientists to find the best possible outcome within given constraints, like minimizing costs or maximizing efficiency. For you, this means understanding your limitations in terms of time, energy, and attention. By defining these boundaries clearly, you can optimize how you use these limited resources. If you’re a nerd like me, sketch out a formula to visualize how changes in one area impact another. Next up, Optimize Your Resource Allocation: Think of the Knapsack problem, a classic optimization puzzle that involves selecting the most valuable items without exceeding the weight limit of your knapsack. Apply this to your daily tasks by choosing activities that offer the greatest return on investment of your time and effort, ensuring you don’t 'overpack' your day. Finally, Adapt and Adjust with Dynamic Programming: Unlike linear programming that focuses on static scenarios, dynamic programming is used for making a sequence of interconnected decisions. It provides a structured approach to break down complex decision-making into simpler, manageable steps. What does this mean? Your plan for the week should be adaptive, changing as new priorities emerge and as tasks are completed. Your priorities on Monday probably look different by Friday - and that’s okay! Be flexible and adjust your plan when encountering new information or outcomes. Understand what your threshold is for allowing your priorities to change. While you don’t want priorities to be rigid, immovable objects…you also don’t want to reorganize them every time the wind blows. Keeping these data science principles in mind during your daily and weekly planning can give you a new perspective on strategically managing your resources. I’ve found that this approach not only helps me clarify what's most important, but also enhances my ability to achieve goals efficiently. That being said - human brains aren’t built for this type of thing. It’s a tough skillset to learn. Thankfully, you don’t have to go it alone. ☺️🤖 At Aneu, our Navigators are built for this exact type of support, and to empower you with science-based, data-driven personal development. Come design your own Navigator today at www.aneu.ai. #youngprofessional #personaldevelopment #priorities #datascience #goals #personalAI #newjob #aneu

Day 1 of #tech4dev Bootcamp3.2 The class was knowledge-packed as our trainer Clifford Frempong demystified Data Science. The goal of the class was just an introduction to Data Science. Data Science is an interdisciplinary field that uses scientific methods, Processes, algorithms, and Systems to extract knowlege and insights from Structured and unstructured data.Put, Data Science is Using data that could be structured like prices, weather, weight etc and unstructured data like images, audio, text etc to understand different things that concern the Organizations. The data in an organization is usually saying something about that organization so data science helps to understand or decode the message. Why do we need data science most especially now Due to advancement in technology companies are bombarded with a lot of data and it is in the interest of that company to harness the power of that data inorder to generate insights that will be used for decision making that will affect the company positively especially increase sales. Data science helps business to be more strategic in their marketing campaigns so that with lower budget they can achieve maximum result. Data science Teams in organizations consist of different people with different skillset. Data science Jobs consist mainly: 1. Data Engineeer who is responsible for collecting organization data from various sources such as database, Excel sheet, website etc and make it available to the right people and in its efficient form 2. Data Analyst whose job is to work on the data and build visualizations used for making informed decisions. 3.Machine learning Engineers who ensures that models developed are running smoothly and giving accurate results at the right time. Data is scattered in organizations so much so that they require this set of people to work on data. Different roles are emerging now days which are combination of different roles such as analytics engineer etc. your company may determine your responsibilities. We have five types of analysis which are: 1.Descriptive analysis: This type of analysis is to summarize, describe and understand data patterns,trends and distributions. 2.Diagnostic analysis: it uses data to understand factors behind past events,trends and outcomes. 3.Predictive analysis: it aims to help organizations make proactive decisions and provide insights into potential risks and opportunities. 4.Precriptive analysis: it aims at recommending actions in response to a given forecast to optimize desired outcomes. 5.Cognize analysis:cognitive analysis aims to help organizations extract insights and make predictions from complex and unstructured data sets that may be difficult to process using traditional methods. This just a summary of all I learn't. Thank you #tech4dev for giving me the opportunity to upskill in #dataanalytics and #visualization
