Data science od podstaw. Analiza danych w Pythonie. Wydanie II

Joel Grus

Analityka danych jest uważana za wyjątkowo obiecującą dziedzinę wiedzy. Rozwija się błyskawicznie i znajduje coraz to nowsze zastosowania. Profesjonaliści biegli w eksploracji danych i wydobywaniu z nich pożytecznych informacji mogą liczyć na interesującą pracę i bardzo atrakcyjne warunki zatrudnienia. Jednak aby zostać analitykiem danych, trzeba znać matematykę i statystykę, a także nauczyć się programowania. Umiejętności w zakresie uczenia maszynowego i uczenia głębokiego również są ważne. W przypadku tak specyficznej dziedziny, jaką jest nauka o danych, szczególnie istotne jest zdobycie gruntownych podstaw i dogłębne ich zrozumienie. W tym przewodniku opisano zagadnienia związane z podstawami nauki o danych. Wyjaśniono niezbędne elementy matematyki i statystyki. Przedstawiono także techniki budowy potrzebnych narzędzi i sposoby działania najistotniejszych algorytmów. Książka została skonstruowana tak, aby poszczególne implementacje były jak najbardziej przejrzyste i zrozumiałe. Zamieszczone tu przykłady napisano w Pythonie: jest to język dość łatwy do nauki, a pracę na danych ułatwia szereg przydatnych bibliotek Pythona. W drugim wydaniu znalazły się nowe tematy, takie jak uczenie głębokie, statystyka i przetwarzanie języka naturalnego, a także działania na ogromnych zbiorach danych. Zagadnienia te często pojawiają się w pracy współczesnego analityka danych. W książce między innymi: elementy algebry liniowej, statystyki i rachunku prawdopodobieństwa zbieranie, oczyszczanie i eksploracja danych algorytmy modeli analizy danych podstawy uczenia maszynowego systemy rekomendacji i przetwarzanie języka naturalnego analiza sieci społecznościowych i algorytm MapReduce Nauka o danych: bazuj na solidnych podstawach!
