How Data Science Works
Data science starts with data processing, which involves data ingestion and decompression to collect and unpack data, followed by data cleaning to remove errors and inconsistencies. Next, data analytics is performed to extract insights. Machine learning and deep learning are then used to train models on the processed data, allowing them to learn patterns. These trained models can then make predictions or inferences, providing valuable insights and helping in decision-making processes.
