It draws from a wide array of disciplines including such fields as statistics, computer science, mathematics, machine learning, and data mining. In this book, we cover the important data science concepts and how they are supported by Java, as well as the often statistically challenging techniques so you understand their purpose and application.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book starts with an introduction of data science, followed by the basic data science tasks of data collection, data cleaning, data analysis, and data visualization. This is followed by a discussion of statistical techniques and then more advanced topics including machine learning, neural networks, and deep learning. The next section examines the major categories of data analysis including text, visual, and audio data.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book ends with a discussion on the resources that support the parallel implementation of many of these techniques and then a conclusion where more in-depth problem are illustrated. Due to the nature of the topic, simple examples of a technique are presented early followed by a more detailed treatment later in the book. This permits a more natural and smooth introduction to the techniques and flow in the book.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Packt Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47172571267312,"sku":"9781785281242","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781785281242_p0.jpg?v=1763728177","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781785281242","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
