Students will learn methods to explore and analyze data, apply feature engineering, and manage large datasets. The course combines theoretical learning with hands-on projects to ensure practical data preparation skills learned.
- Understand methods of data collection, cleaning, and preprocessing.
- Explore data using visual and statistical techniques for insights.
- Learn data labeling strategies and synthetic data generation for AI models.
- Apply feature engineering techniques to improve model accuracy.
- Master the practices for data management and storage.
- Complete a practical hands-on project in preparing datasets for machine learning models.
1. Basic Programming Skills (Python): Knowledge of Python is essential, as this course involves hands-on data manipulation using libraries such as Pandas, NumPy, and Matplotlib. Suggested prerequisite course: "Introduction to Python" or equivalent experience.
2. Introductory Statistics and Probability: Familiarity with basic statistics (mean, median, variance) and probability is important for understanding data distributions, exploratory data analysis, and feature engineering techniques. Suggested prerequisite course: "Introduction to Statistics" or similar.
3. Basic Knowledge of Machine Learning Concepts: Understanding of supervised and unsupervised learning, and general familiarity with how machine learning models work will help with contextualizing data preparation steps. Suggested prerequisite course: "Introduction to Machine Learning" or an equivalent course covering basic ML algorithms.
4. Familiarity with Data Structures: Students should know how to work with data structures like arrays, lists, and dictionaries, as these are frequently used in data manipulation tasks.
