Applied Data Science with Python

Description: Python programming is the most recent and powerful tool in big data analysis that can be applicable in various fields of specialization. The aim of this training is to acquaint trainees with the basics of the Python programming environment, including basic Python programming techniques such as lambdas, reading and manipulating CSV files, and the numpy library. Given its importance and coverage, this training is designed to be offered in two phases. The first phase starts with data manipulation and cleansing techniques using popular data science libraries in Python Pandas, introduces Series and Data Frame abstractions as central data structures for data analysis, group by, merge, provides tutorials on how to use functions such as pivot tables effectively. The second phase covers after advanced data science topics such as: Applied Plotting in Python, Graphing and Data Representation, Applied Machine Learning in Python, and Applied Python. Text Mining, Applied Social Network.
