Course Preamble

In today’s world there exists data available in abundance from variety of sources like web server logs, social media, and large databases and from diverse domains like Ecommerce, Medical, Scientific etc. Big data analytics is the process of examining these data to uncover hidden patterns, unknown correlations and other useful information that can be used to make better decisions. Business people, Doctors, Scientists et al. can use this to improve their services.

The main challenge to the analysis of big data comes because of the 4 V’s– volume, velocity, variety and veracity. For effective analytics, we need to deal with high volume of data of different variety which is being generated in high velocity. The data what is available from such sources is highly unstructured which calls for analytics on the same.

This course is designed to make the participants capable of solving problems using Artificial Intelligence related technologies.

Course Objective

The objective is to make the participants capable of identifying and applying appropriate techniques and tools to solve problems in managing huge quantity of data.

Course Outcome

After completing the course, the participants will be capable of formulating AI problems that can be solved with the raw data available in different domains. They will be able to do basic data analysis and machine learning model development with structured data. They will also be able to do suitable predictions and decision making by handling unstructured data including text, images and video using deep learning and natural language processing.
