Background
Data sciene is a multi-disciplinary field that uses scientific methods, processes, algorithms and systems to extract knowledge and insights from data in various forms, both structured and unstructured, similar to data mining.
Data science is a "concept to unify statistics, data analysis, machine learning and their related methods" in order to "understand and analyze actual phenomena" with data. It employs techniques and theories drawn from many fields within the context of mathematics, statistics, information science, and computer science.
Aim
The aim of ToPDS2019 is to bring together students, researchers and practitioners in data science area. It will reflect on Opportunities, Industry Demands and Methods in Data Science. The ToPDS2019 will highlight two leading industrial personalities, a Senior Data Scientist and 2 academics who work in Data Analytical Methods. The aim of this seminar cum workshop also aimed at highlighting new vistas for interested researchers and students.
Objectives
Objectives of the seminar are as follows:
- To create an interaction among researchers, teachers, mathematicians and students in discussion on the new trend of researches in data science.
- To familiarize participants for applying data science concepts and methods to solve problems in real-world contexts and will communicate these solutions effectively.
