Engineering Data Science

Die Schlagwörter Künstliche Intelligenz, Data Science, Data Engineering, und Big Data dominieren seit einigen Jahren nicht nur die IT-Schlagzeilen. In unserem Kurs wollen wir diese Wörter mit grundlegendem Inhalt füllen und die typischen Arbeitsschritte eines Data Scientists nachvollziehen. Insbesondere schauen wir hinter die Kulissen und betrachten den oft mühsamen Weg der Daten bis sie endlich genutzt werden können um z.B. mittels maschinellem Lernen Modelle trainieren zu können. Dazu gehören die Datenbeschaffung, die Datenreinigung, und die Datenintegration. Anschließend lernen wir, wie man aus diesen Daten und auch aus Texten neue Erkenntnisse mittels Data Mining und maschinellem Lernen gewinnt. Der Abschluss bildet eine Diskussion über Ethik und Fairness bei der automatisierten Datenanalyse.

Ohne Daten gibt es keine Künstliche Intelligenz. Maschinelles Lernen benutzt große Datenmengen, um KI-Modelle zu trainieren. Eine der größten Herausforderungen beim Einsatz von gesellschaftlich verträglicher KI ist die Bereitstellung ausreichender, besonders aber qualitativ hochwertiger Trainingsdaten. In dem Kurs “KI und Datenqualität” berichten Expertinnen und Experten aus den Bereichen Informatik, Recht, Ethik und Normung über diese vielfältigen Aspekte der Daten für die Künstliche Intelligenz.

Bayesian data analysis is increasingly becoming the tool of choice for many data-analysis problems. This free course on Bayesian data analysis will teach you basic ideas about random variables and probability distributions, Bayes' rule, and its application in simple data analysis problems. You will learn to use the R package brms (which is a front-end for the probabilistic programming language Stan). The focus will be on regression modeling, culminating in a brief introduction to hierarchical models (otherwise known as mixed or multilevel models). This course is appropriate for anyone familiar with the programming language R and for anyone who has done some frequentist data analysis (e.g., linear modeling and/or linear mixed modeling) in the past.

Process mining is widely used in organizations to improve the understanding of business processes, based on data. Therefore, process mining is also called “data science for business processes”. While process mining has gone mainstream, there are many underlying concepts and techniques, and these are complex. The goal of this online course is to provide a general understanding of the concepts and techniques behind process mining. The course will be most valuable for domain experts, whose business processes are investigated, and for professionals in IT and in business consulting. We aim at providing a common understanding and a common language that facilitates communication between all stakeholders involved in process mining projects.
