Data Science Prerequisites : programming (5/5)

Programming Knowing various fancy algorithms and statistical concepts is good, but the ability to apply them to solve practical problems is even better. In this day and age, with the amounts of data available and the ever-growing complexity of techniques being used, it is imperative to off-load the computations to a piece of hardware designed […]

Data Science Prerequisites: calculus (4/5)

Studying the theoretical underpinnings of data science can be a daunting experience, especially for newcomers lacking the required background. To help alleviate this burden, this piece will provide an overview of Calculus, one of the pillars supporting many popular algorithms today, along with a few examples of application in machine learning and resources to get […]

Data Science Prerequisites: linear algebra (3/5)

If Data Science was Sherlock Holmes, Linear Algebra would be Watson. This faithful sidekick is often overlooked by professionals and will form the main topic of this post.  Linear Algebra is hands-down the most important discipline to know before doing any machine learning work. Prior to feeding it to an algorithm, data usually needs to […]

Data Science Prerequisites: statistics (2/5)

As such, statistics plays a central role here, allowing the practitioner to draw conclusions about the characteristics of a population by analyzing a sample of it, which is usually related to the products and/or clients of the company. Data Science today has become a very general term, with each party adopts its own definition of […]
