SI 618: Exploratory Data Analysis

Aims to help students get started with their own data acquisition and analysis. Data analysis is crucial to evaluating and designing solutions and applications as well as to understanding information needs and use. Students in this course (who will have just completed SI 601: "Data Manipulation") will learn techniques of exploratory data analysis using scripting, text parsing, structured query language, regular expressions, graphing, and clustering methods to explore data. Students will be able to make sense of and see patterns in otherwise intractable quantities of data.

Credits: 1.5

Term offered: Fall

Prerequisites:
SI 601 or permission of instructor (Session 2; 601 is Session 1)
