Basics of Data Science using Python
Basics of Data Science using Python After going through the topic above, what are the questions that come to your mind? It must be, why python? How can we use python to implement data science? And, what are the advantages and disadvantages? We will be answering all these questions and we are also going to talk about the libraries that we can use to implement data science. 1. NumPy NumPy arrays are similar to Python’s built-in list type in some ways, but NumPy arrays provide much more efficient storage and data operations as the arrays grow in size. 2. SciPy It is built on top of the Numpy library, which provides more extensions for finding scientific mathematical formulae such as Matrix Rank, Inverse, polynomial equations, LU Decomposition, and so on. 3. Pandas Pandas is a pillar library in any data science workflow because it allows you to perform data processing, wrangling, and munging. 4. Matplotlib This library is built on NumPy arrays and includes several plots such as line charts, bar charts, histograms, and so on. 5. Scikit Learn Scikit-learn is by far one of the most important Python libraries for machine learning, as it allows you to create machine learning models while also providing utility functions for data preparation, post-model analysis, and evaluation.. 6. TensorFlow TensorFlow is a software library that uses data flow graphs to perform numerical computations. 7. Keras It was created with the goal of allowing for quick experimentation .Keras is a Python library that is widely used for deep learning model training. 8. PyTorch PyTorch takes these tensors and makes it simple to move them to GPUs for faster processing during neural network training.

10 DATA SCIENCE SPECIALIZATIONS
It is absolutely normal that we come across a growing number of specializations within the field of Data Science. This will help you in understanding in which area you want to work eventually. 1. DATA MINING Data mining, also known as knowledge discovery in data (KDD) is the process of finding and extracting anomalies and discovering patterns in large data sets to predict outcomes. In simple terms, the main aim of data mining is to extract information with intelligent methods and transform the information into a comprehensible structure. 2. DATA VISUALIZATION It provides a convenient way of understanding trends, outliers, and patterns in data. Data visualization is the domain that deals with the graphic representation of data through visual elements like- charts, graphs, maps, and other visualization tools. 3. DATA PROCESSING We can also call it manipulation of data by computers inclusive of output formatting or transformation. Data processing is when you collect data and transform data into useful information. 4. DATA CONSULTANCY It also involves educating companies or clients about various aspects of data technology. They provide a wide range of methods that optimizes business intelligence by leveraging existing data. 5. MARKET DATA ANALYTICS Through it, we can identify the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and potential threats of a company. It looks into the depths of consumer segments, buying patterns, competition, and the economic environment. 6. CYBERSECURITYRTY DATA ANALYSIS These experts produce intelligence to improve the security and privacy of data of an organization from external and internal threats. Cybersecurity uses data science to protect software and devices from cyberattacks. 7. DATA ARCHITECTURE Data architecture refers to how an organization collects, store, transform, distribute and use data. These days it is important for organizations to have centralized data architecture in accordance with industry standards. 8. DATA ENGINEERING Their primary job is to design, manage and optimize the flow of data with databases throughout the organization. It is the practice of designing and building data systems for collecting, storing, and analyzing data at scale. 9. BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE AND DATA ANALYTICS It describes the strategies, technologies, and tools companies further use to obtain important business information. Data analytics ad data analytics are their subsets that provide data management solutions to understand contemporary data and gain relevant insights. 10. COGNITIVE MACHINE LEARNING Cognitive computing systems work with humans and provide them with advice in making informed decisions. It intends to use the best algorithm and come up with an accurate action/result.

7 Tips to Craft a Perfect LinkedIn Profile
If you have any certifications and licenses or if you have worked on some major project, it is time to show off your work! This is an important section and you should definitely not miss this if you are willing to present yourself as a highly-skilled professional. This will help the recruiter to understand your strengths. One thing to make sure of is that you do not need to put a long list of skills. The about section of your profile should be able to articulately define you as a professional and a person. Don’t make it too short nor make it too long. You also have the option of adding media samples that can quickly access your work portfolio. It doesn’t matter if you are a fresher or an experienced professional, check put some good profile descriptions before writing work experience on LinkedIn. And the bonus part is- that we will be adding some snippets from our website’s founder’s LinkedIn profile as well to help you gain a better understanding of how things work. You can go through your LinkedIn network and endorse connections who genuinely deserve it and this in turn will prompt people to do the same for you. You have to be mindful of the keywords you use as they can make or break your profile. One of the best things you can do for your career is to formulate a strong LinkedIn profile well-suited according to your professional needs. Be active in managing your endorsements and you can also choose which ones to show and which ones to hide. You can take a step further by adding recommendations. A few things that make up for a good summary include- your passion, motivation, skills, experience, fields where you have excelled, and other relevant accomplishments.
