Data Science LiFe Cycle

We have touched on a few subjects; vocabulary, history, and geology. Now for the science in Data Science.

WHAT IS DATA SCIENCE?

There is an overlap between using data mining and data science. They both have in mind the goal of extracting actionable insights from data. Machine learning algorithms are often at the center of creating artificial intelligence (AI) systems to accomplish this goal.

However, the term data science emphasizes the scientific process followed and documented to ensure the quality and integrity of the resulting AI. This process is known as the data science life cycle.

Data Science Life Cycle includes:

  • Defining the business problem and objectives
  • Preparing and maintaining the data (including gathering, cleaning, reformatting, etc.)
  • Exploratory data analyses (including forming and testing hypotheses)
  • Training and testing machine learning models against the business objectives
  • Deploying machine learning models for use in live software
  • Following what is known as the software development lifecycle, or data science life cycle
  • Measuring and monitoring model performance against the business objectives
  • Iterating as necessary

By surrounding machine learning with clear business objectives, data wrangling, data cleaning, statistics, and software development, data science teams can develop and maintain robust artificial intelligence systems that improve everyday processes.
