Introduction to Data Science
 What Is Data Science?

● Data Science is a blend of scientific methods, processes, algorithms, and systems to discover the
hidden patterns from raw data.
● It uses techniques and theories of mathematics, statistics, computer science, domain knowledge,
and information science to build the model.
● Data science practitioners use machine learning and artificial intelligence algorithms for drawing
inferences from data that propagate business, building products assist humans in various fields
ranging from healthcare, finance, security, entertainment, and to automate tasks that required
human intelligence.
 Benefits of Data Science

Automates task: Makes data better:

It trains the historical data to It prepares and examines the
perform repetitive tasks. data and converts it into a
better format.

Possesses versatility: Handles Big Data:

Data science can be used in It allows users to handle
numerous applications. large amount of data.
It provides opportunity to
work in various fields.
 Demand for Data Scientists

The demand for data scientists is rapidly increasing. Data science is expected to continue to grow
significantly in the future.
