This course introduces the basics of data science as the rapidly emerging most popular domain for researchers and practitioners in the 21st century. It highlights the basic skills to be acquired by a data scientist with various applications from medicine, homeland security, engineering, finance, etc. The objectives of the course are (1) introducing the concept of knowledge discovery in data and discuss the steps to be followed including the problem definition, data collection, integration and management, data analysis, and visualization. (2) highlighting the importance of dealing with various aspects of data, including volume, variety, velocity, veracity, value, etc., (3) introducing the basic statistical and machine learning techniques which could be effectively used for knowledge discovery, (4) covering network modeling and graph analysis as powerful alternative mechanisms for making sense from data, (5) illustrating how data visualize is effective for communication, and (6) covering basics of recommendation systems.
