商品描述

Data is an intrinsic part of our daily lives. Everything we do is a data point. Many of these data points are recorded with the intent to help us lead more efficient lives. We have apps that track our workouts, sleep, food intake, and personal finance. We use the data to make changes to our lives based on goals we have set for ourselves. Businesses use vast collections of data to determine strategy and marketing. Data scientists take data, analyze it, and create models to help solve problems. You may have heard of companies having data management teams or chief information officers (CIOs) or chief data officers (CDOs), etc. They are all people who work with data, but their function is more related to vetting data and preparing it for use by data scientists.

The jump from personal data usage for self-betterment to mass data analysis for business process improvement often feels bigger to us than it is. In turn, we often think big data analysis requires tools held only by advanced degree holders. Although advanced degrees are certainly valuable, this book illustrates how it is not a requirement to adequately run a data science project. Because we are all already data users, with some simple strategies and exposure to basic analytical software programs, anyone who has the proper tools and determination can solve data science problems. The process presented in this book will help empower individuals to work on and solve data-related challenges.

The goal of this book is to provide a step-by-step guide to the data science process so that you can feel confident in leading your own data science project. To aid with clarity and understanding, the author presents a fictional restaurant chain to use as a case study, illustrating how the various topics discussed can be applied. Essentially, this book helps traditional businesspeople solve data-related problems on their own without any hesitation or fear. The powerful methods are presented in the form of conversations, examples, and case studies. The conversational style is engaging and provides clarity.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

資料是我們日常生活中不可或缺的一部分。我們所做的每一件事都是一個數據點。許多這些數據點的記錄目的是為了幫助我們過上更高效的生活。我們有應用程式來追蹤我們的運動、睡眠、飲食和個人財務。我們利用這些數據根據自己設定的目標來改變生活。企業利用大量的數據來決定策略和行銷。數據科學家會對數據進行分析,並創建模型來幫助解決問題。你可能聽說過企業擁有數據管理團隊或首席資訊官(CIO)或首席數據官(CDO)等。他們都是與數據打交道的人,但他們的職能更多是與數據的審核和準備工作有關,以便數據科學家使用。

從個人數據使用以自我提升到大規模數據分析以改善商業流程的跳躍,對我們來說往往感覺比實際上要大。因此,我們常常認為大數據分析需要只有高級學位持有者才能使用的工具。雖然高級學位確實有其價值,但本書說明了這並不是成功運行數據科學項目的必要條件。因為我們已經是數據使用者,只需一些簡單的策略和基本分析軟體的接觸,任何擁有適當工具和決心的人都可以解決數據科學問題。本書中所呈現的過程將幫助個人有能力處理和解決與數據相關的挑戰。

本書的目標是提供一個逐步指南,幫助你在數據科學過程中感到自信,能夠主導自己的數據科學項目。為了增進清晰度和理解,作者提出了一個虛構的餐廳連鎖作為案例研究,說明所討論的各種主題如何應用。基本上,本書幫助傳統商業人士獨立解決與數據相關的問題,毫不猶豫或恐懼。這些強大的方法以對話、範例和案例研究的形式呈現,對話風格引人入勝並提供清晰度。
