The aim of most courses in AI is understanding the finer details of the methodological aspects. This course, however, is aimed at developing knowledge of, skills in and competance of the most used methods. The course exploits the fact that very many business-relevant, practical problems applications of data science do not require the most sophisticated methods. Many practical problems from private and public organizations may be tackled with known methods readily available in commodified technologies in the form of open source.
Learning outcome
Knowledge: The candidate will establish deep knowledge about the variety of data science methods, technologies and algorithms. Skills: The candidate will gain solid skills in setting up and configuring data science tools. The candidate will develop good skills in identifying what methods are appropriate for what type of problems. The candidate will also develop good skills in preparing and pre-processing data for input. Competence: The candidate will estabslish a compentence in the conditions for the application of selected data science methods to address business and strategica challenges.

In the group project the students go through a realistic, problem-oriented analytics of the data. The group project is develop practical skills in configuring the relevant tools/ technologies, pre-processing of data and conducting the analytics. The individual assignment discusses the group project in light of relevant literature from the courses curriculum. The group-based project counts for the final grade. The presentation and the individual assignment are mandatory but do not count towards the final grade of the evaluation.
