DataHour: Extracting Value from Data

About the Event

With data being the core of every industry in the current scenario, the complexity and size of data is increasing every second. In this session we would dive deep to find out how one can make sense out of raw unstructured data. For any aspiring Data scientist, Data processing and transformation is the stepping stone to building an interpretable machine learning model. The exercise of Data wrangling is core to explaining your predictions and outcomes. This avoids leaving the analysis or ML models from being a 'black box'. 

In this DataHour, Varun will cover the following topics:

  • Types of Data (Structured/ Unstructured)
  • Basic Data checks (Variable types, Skewness, Variance, NULL value treatment, Data cleaning)
  • Outlier detection & Treatment, NULL Value imputation, Standardization/Normalization
  • Data Transforming (Transforming variables into meaningful formats, Combining redundant variables, Reducing data complexity)
  • Data sets examples across different industries and their use cases
  • Data wrangling concepts (Grouping, Merging, Gather/Spread/Pivot operations, Dealing with date fields. Aggregation techniques etc.)


Prerequisites:
 Interest in the Data Science domain, basic understanding of SQL and statistics and various data variable types.
