Slides for my talk at City Unrulyversity on 18.03.15 in London. Discuss the term Data Science, touch upon the origins and the data scientist types. A longer discussion on the Data Science process and challenges analysts face. And here is the abstract of the talk: Data Science ... the term is everywhere now, on the news, recruitment sites, technology boards. "Data scientist" is even named to be sexiest job title of the century. But what is it, really? Is it just a hype or a term that will be with us for some time? This session will investigate where the term is originating from and how it relates to decades of research in established fields such as statistics, data mining, visualisation and machine learning. We will investigate how the field is evolving with the emergence of large, heterogeneous data resources. We will discuss the objectives, tools and challenges of data science as a practice, and look at examples from research and industrial applications.
