Big data without data science

- [Instructor] You're familiar by now with the 3 Vs of big data, the Volume and Velocity and Variety of the data. And you're also familiar with data science, which involves Coding and Quantitative ability and Context. Now, just as I have shown you that you can do data science without needing big data, you can actually do big data without needing the full data science toolkit, and you can still get valuable and actionable insights from those analyses. So let's take a look at, for instance, when you would use the coding and the quantitative abilities of data science without necessarily needing the context or the domain expertise. The best example in this case is machine learning or specifically, deep learning neural networks. In this case, you can create a black box, which means you don't necessarily know exactly how the algorithm is processing the data, but you can still get very useful categorizations and identifications of…
