Will Data Science Encroach On Our Privacy?

These days our country in particular and the world in general are facing a huge unknown demon in terms of the issue of breach of privacy. While Snowden from the fame of Wikileaks had already released the confidential documents of the kind of secret surveillance, which the powerful countries had in place to keep a tab on developing centres of powers, in particular India. What is more baffling that maybe the capitalist brigade of our own country also has the potential to compromise our data, if they ever fall prey to the advent of various dangerous viruses like Petya or Wannacry. With the newest run in of the Government of India with the Supreme Court regarding whether linking of our Unique Identity Cards or Aadhar Cards with our phone number, has prompted the running of a lot of questions in the minds of the general public. This is worrisome mainly because of the recent reports of data base hacking of prominent telecommunication network companies like Jio and Airtel. These databases ...

What Do Data Analysts Do?

Image
Data Analysts could be called as those professionals who basically have their work cut out around numbers. They are supposed to keep track of numbers, collect them, collate them and then actually, almost like magic translate them into plain old English, so that even the most run of the mill person can understand it properly, without a glitch. Now one may wonder, where does all this data come from? This data is actually all the information that we humans create on the World Wide Web in the virtual world. When it comes to individuals, we usually end up creating data from the various apps, social media posts and the social networking sites that we usually refer to. When it comes to businesses and firms, the data that is created refers to a number of sales figures, market research that is done, the tally of the logistics, transportation tasks and so on. A data analyst is supposed to take all of that data and use it in order to help companies make decisions that are better in comparison ...

Data Analytics vs Big Data vs Data Science – What is the Difference?

Data is all around. Truth be told, the measure of computerized information that exists is developing at a quick rate, multiplying at regular intervals, and changing the way we live. As indicated by IBM, 2.5 billion gigabytes (GB) of information was produced each day in 2012. Which makes it critical to in any event know the nuts and bolts of the field. All things considered, here is the place our future untruths. So in the same vein read ahead to understand how the three terms, data analytics, data science and big data differ from each other. Data science, when you get down to it, is an expansive umbrella term whereby the logical technique, math, measurements and entire host of different apparatuses are connected to informational indexes keeping in mind the end goal to concentrate learning and understanding from said information. Data Analysts who are also known to work in data analytics, basically take a gander at expansive arrangements of information where an association c...

What’s Predictive Analytics All About?

Image
Predictive analytics or predictive modelling can be defined, as a commonly used statistical technique to predict future behavior. The solutions provided here are a part of data mining technology, which works with the analysis of historical and current data, thus generating a model, which will aid in predicting future outcomes. It basically uses trends that have exited in the past and tries to apply them to the future, mainly to check their relevancy. Technology has somewhat achieved this phenomena already, although we still have a long way to go about it. Have you ever noticed, if you look for a certain product online, say in the morning, you get advertisements about the similar or related products throughout the day? For instance if a customer purchases a camera from any e-commerce website, then by default he would also become an instant customer for all of its accessories, while at the same time he’d want to buy, say a lens of the same brand, so no question of competition here. ...

Data Science in Current Scenario

As more companies recognize the need for a data science platform, more vendors are claiming they have one. Increasingly, we see organizations describing their product as a “data science platform” without describing the features that make platforms so valuable. A good data science platform should be able to … Find and understand past work, so that  data scientists  do not need to begin from scratch when asking new questions. Explore data on large machines, without dealing with development ops / infrastructure setup. Use new packages and tools,  safely , i.e., without breaking past work or disrupting environments for other business users. Scale out compute resources to run many computationally intensive and complex experiments at once. Track your work (i.e., your experiments) so they are reproducible. Share work with peers and non-technical users (with other areas of expertise), to get feedback on evolving research and results Data science  work is only v...
