Before our international Datathon 2019, we will warm up with some knowledge sharing in the field of Data Science!
Agenda
As data-miners, we are always eager to turn data into knowledge. Yet, this process relies heavily on the input, i.e. garbage input produces garbage output. Therefore, preparing properly the raw data is of crucial importance for the quality of delivered results.
The workshop is intended to highlight some of the good practices when importing, preparing and cleaning data in the environment of R Studio. It is particularly well suited to beginners in the field and it is aimed to encourage students with limited experience to take part in the forthcoming Datathon.
