Course Introduction:
Gmail knows if an email is spam, Facebook knows if a photo contains a human face, Siri understands and answers user questions, and Alpha Go is better than professional players. Humans do not directly design the programs in these applications. Instead, the machine can automatically learn from data. How to design algorithms that allow machines to learn automatically is the focus of this course.

Course Introduction:
This course provides a brief introduction to Data Science and Text Analytics with AI/NLP (Natural Language Processing) technologies. We are now living in a world increasingly overwhelmed by data. Data science, broadly taken as the science of extracting meaningful information from data is gaining prominence in understanding the world and society we live in. And as unstructured data is the most abundant type of data ever generated on a daily basis, the analytic process that is used for deriving high-quality information from text, often called text analytics or text mining, plays an important role in data science.
The latest AI/NLP techniques have fundamentally reshaped our understanding of data, and are already empowering the new generation of data scientists. In this course, we will introduce the basic idea of Data Science, and explain how AI, Machine Learning, and NLP are making it far more feasible to automate many data analytics processes, including related tools and resources. Some real applications will be demonstrated.
