INTRODUCTION TO DATA SCIENCE LTPC


3003
COURSE OBJECTIVES
● Will gain knowledge in the basic concepts of Data Analysis
● To acquire skills in data preparatory and preprocessing steps
● To understand the mathematical skills in statistics
● To learn the tools and packages in Python for data science
● To acquire knowledge in data interpretation and visualization techniques
UNIT I INTRODUCTION 9
Need for data science – benefits and uses – facets of data – data science process – setting
the research goal– retrieving data – cleansing, integrating, and transforming data –
exploratory data analysis – build the models – presenting and building applications.
UNIT II DESCRIBING DATA 10
Frequency distributions –Outliers –relative frequency distributions –cumulative frequency
distributions –frequency distributions for nominal data –interpreting distributions –graphs –
averages -normal distributions–z scores –normal curve problems –finding proportions –
finding scores –more about z–interpretation of r2–multiple regression equations –regression
toward the mean- statistical metrics with python.
UNIT III INTRODUCTION TO NUMPY 8
Data types in Python -basics of Numpy arrays - computations on Numpy Arrays-universal
functions -aggregations: min, max and Everything in between-computation on arrays:
broadcasting - comparisons, masks, and Boolean logic - fancy indexing -sorting values in
Numpy array-fast sorting-sorting along rows or columns-partial sorts-K nearest neighbors-
Numpy’s structured arrays.
UNIT IV DATA MANIPULATION WITH PANDAS 9
Pandas objects - data indexing and selection - operating on data in pandas -handling
missing data -hierarchical indexing - combining datasets: concat and append - combining
datasets: merge and join aggregation and grouping- pivot tables-vectorized string operations
- working with time Series – high performance pandas: eval()and query().
UNIT V PYTHON FOR DATA VISUALIZATION 9
Visualization with matplotlib – line plots – scatter plots – visualizing errors – density and
contour plots –histograms, binnings, and density –three dimensional plotting – geographic
data – data analysis using stat models and seaborn – graph plotting using Plotly – interactive
data visualization using Bokeh.
TOTAL: 45 PERIODS
COURSE OUTCOMES
At the end of the course Students will be able to:
● Apply the skills of data inspecting and cleansing.
● Determine the relationship between data dependencies using statistics
● Represent the useful information using mathematical skills
● Can handle data using primary tools used for data science in Python
● Can apply the knowledge for data describing and visualization using tools.
