CSCI E-88B - Computing for Big Data

Semester: 

Spring

Offered: 

2020
CSCI E-88B - Computing for Big Data
Big data is everywhere, from Omics and Health Policy to Environmental Health. Every single aspect of the Health Sciences is being transformed. However, it is hard to navigate and critically assess tools and techniques in such a fast-moving big data panorama. In this course, we are going to give a critical presentation of theoretical approaches and software implementations of tools to collect, store and process data at scale. The goal is not just to learn recipes to manipulate big data but learn how to reason in terms of big data, from software design and tool selection to implementation,...

Principles, Statistical and Computational Tools for Reproducible Science

 

About this course

Today the principles and techniques of reproducible research are more important than ever, across diverse disciplines from astrophysics to political science. No one wants to do research that can’t be reproduced. Thus, this course is really for anyone who is doing any data intensive research. While many of us come from a biomedical background, this course is for a broad audience of data scientists.

To meet the needs of the scientific community, this course will examine the fundamentals of methods and tools for reproducible...
