What is the course about:
This course focuses on today’s reality – the fact that all Datasets are getting Bigger and Bigger.
Big Data is becoming a big issue because they are reaching a point where these datasets cannot be processed.
In this course, we recognize this reality, by presenting a series of methodologies that enable us to deal with Big Data.
We begin with a 6-step methodology applied to a Big Dataset of Electricity Demand. We reduce it as much as possible,
while retaining the important information held in it.
We then proceed to create a Dummy Big-Dataset. This is necessary because many times companies prefer to conceal some information from inside their datasets.
Also, we proceed to select important information from within Big Data, and present a number of techniques to do so.
We also learn how to transition from small data , to big data, in an accurate way.
