What is data science (ds)?
Abstract
Our ability to generate, gather, and store volumes of data (order of tera-and exo-bytes (1012-1018 bytes) daily) has far outpaced our ability to derive useful information from it in many fields, with available computational resources. The theme of this book is a review of Data Science (DS) through the lens of Dimensionality reduction (DR). Data science is about solving problems based on observations of factors (referred to as co-variates, predictors, or just features) that may determine a solution. Typical kinds of problems are described, including classification, prediction, and clustering problems, as well as data collection methods.
