18 Resources to Learn Data Science Online

#artificialintelligence

It's been called the'sexiest job of the 21st century', the'hottest job of the decade', and is the fastest-growing field in tech at the moment – the impact of Data Science in today's world cannot be overstated. As a discipline, data science involves the collection and study of data – both structured and unstructured – to gain insights and information that can be used by organizations to devise effective strategies. By collating data over a period of time, patterns can be identified that enable companies to find new market opportunities, enhance efficiency, reduce costs, and place themselves at a competitive advantage in their industry. Due to rapid technological advances, especially in areas like mobile advertising, social media, and website personalization, a massive amount of data is being generated on a daily basis. These data volumes have resulted in industries having to become data-savvy & adapt to the new landscape – or risk falling behind the competition.

The future of jobs and education

#artificialintelligence

Broadly speaking, educational activities can be split into two categories: life skills and professional skills. The life skills that we all need to learn, and the way we learn them, have remained relatively consistent across the ages: how to communicate, socialize and survive. But you can argue that today's education system is skewed toward the second category, the teaching of professional skills and it's this category that will face the greatest opportunities and challenges over the next 50 years. While educators prepare students for lives of learning, it's more true to say their role is to prepare students for lifelong careers. But while that was a relatively simple task in the past, it's now much more difficult.


Microsoft's Project Malmo is teaching AI to build stuff in Minecraft

#artificialintelligence

Hell, Microsoft issued an Education Edition of the popular PC game earlier this year targeted at use in a classroom setting. Turns out the game could also prove a useful tool for helping artificial intelligence be more, well, intelligent. Back in March, Microsoft Research showcased the work it was doing with Project Malmo, a platform designed to leverage Minecraft as a means of helping improve AI problem solving, using machines to accomplish tasks and create items in the blocky game. Now the company is bringing Malmo to the GitHub-using masses, courtesy of an open-source license in a private preview. Katja Hoffman of MS's Cambridge, UK lab highlighted the key of teaching AI fundamental connections that go build simple pattern recognition.

#artificialintelligence

This is a relatively small (read: exclusive) workshop (less than 30 attendees), fostering close interaction and collaboration between attendees. The workshop is based on a challenge-response format where a series of (shorter than typical) presentations outline important challenges (rather than results), which are then collaboratively addressed by several small teams which subsequently present their results to the whole group. Presentations are 25-minutes long, followed by 45-minute teamwork. Results of teamwork is subsequently presented to the whole group in a 45-minute session. The workshop concludes on the third day (optional) with a half-day trip (9:00 - 14:00) to the Icelandic countryside (depending on sufficient sign-up).
