Data Science Foundations in Python

About the course

Výuka probíhá v angličtině. 

The course will be held in English.

Data science combines principles from statistics, artificial intelligence, and machine learning, aiming to extract valuable information and discover patterns in data.

This course builds on the Introduction to Data Science course and provides the essential foundation that every data scientist needs, preparing you for further advanced learning in the field. Through real-world projects, you'll learn to select appropriate methods to solve different problems, understand how they work, and apply them effectively.

Python, known for its versatility and efficiency in data manipulation, plays an important role in data science. You'll learn to formulate hypotheses, test them statistically and understand the principles of regression. You'll also learn the basics of machine learning, understanding classification, text analysis, clustering and visualisation techniques to effectively present your findings.

This course is part of the Data & AI Scientist career learning path.
