- Case studies from practice to make the described concepts tangible.
- Practical examples to help you carry out simple data analysis projects.
- BONUS in print edition: E-Book inside
Data Science, Big Data, Artificial Intelligence and Generative AI are currently some of the most talked-about concepts in industry, government, and society, and yet also the most misunderstood. This book will clarify these concepts and provide you with practical knowledge to apply them.
Using exercises and real-world examples, it will show you how to apply data science methods, build data platforms, and deploy data- and ML-driven projects to production. It will help you understand - and explain to various stakeholders - how to generate value from such endeavors. Along the way, it will bring essential data science concepts to life, including statistics, mathematics, and machine learning fundamentals, and explore crucial topics like critical thinking, legal and ethical considerations, and building high-performing data teams.
Readers of all levels of data familiarity - from aspiring data scientists to expert engineers to data leaders - will ultimately learn: how can an organization become more data-driven, what challenges might it face, and how can they as individuals help make that journey a success.
The team of authors consists of data professionals from business and academia, including data scientists, engineers, business leaders and legal experts. All are members of the Vienna Data Science Group (VDSG), an NGO that aims to establish a platform for exchanging knowledge on the application of data science, AI and machine learning, and raising awareness of the opportunities and potential risks of these technologies.

"Die Neuauflage zeichnet sich durch ihre Aktualität aus, indem sie die neuesten Entwicklungen und Trends berücksichtigt. Trotz der Komplexität der Themen ist das Buch verständlich geschrieben und eignet sich sowohl für Einsteiger als auch für erfahrene Praktiker. Es verbindet theoretische Grundlagen mit praktischen Anwendungen und legt Wert auf Interdisziplinarität, indem es Konzepte aus verschiedenen Fachbereichen verknüpft und viele Beispiele aus der realen Welt liefert. Damit ist das Handbuch eine wertvolle Ressource für Leser, die ihr Wissen im Bereich Data Science und KI vertiefen oder erweitern möchten, und ein unverzichtbares Werk für alle, die sich professionell mit Data Science und KI beschäftigen. Für Dezember 2024 plant der Verlag eine erweiterte deutschsprachige Neuauflage des Handbuchs." dotnetrpro, November 2024
