Data Science: The day to day version
Dr. Doron Shaked
The perception of the Data Science profession is all about math and algorithms. This common opinion is riddled with myths and mis-perceptions. In the talk, I plan to call out some of those myths providing simple examples and illustrations. In the end I hope you will come out with a more realistic understanding of what it is to be a Data Scientist in practice, in my mind at least, an even better profession than the common public perception.
