| Title: | Data Science and Prediction |
| Authors: | Dhar, Vasant |
| Issue Date: | 16-Oct-2012 |
| Series/Report no.: | CBA-12-00 |
| Abstract: | The use of the term 'Data Science' is becoming increasingly common along
with 'Big Data.' What does Data Science mean? Is there something unique
about it? What skills should a 'data scientist' possess to be productive
in the emerging digital age characterized by a deluge of data? What are
the implications for business and for scientific inquiry? In this brief
monograph I address these questions from a predictive modeling perspective. |
