Kickstart your data science know-how with an introduction to analytics and AI, business intelligence, machine learning, and deep learning
The richest data store is only as good as your ability to search, sort, analyze, and present the data within it. This introductory-level course will give students a broad overview of the theory and practice of data analytics and the many ways in which artificial intelligence (AI) contributes to it.
Your instructor will begin with a brief history of data analytics and then proceed into discussions of data warehouses, data mining, business intelligence, machine learning, and other emerging AI techniques to make sense of big data.
Students will learn how data is captured, cleansed, analyzed, and presented on business intelligence dashboards that captivate and persuade an audience. “It is a capital mistake to theorize before one has data," Sherlock Holmes once said.
