Emerging Trends in Analytics

Unit I: Introduction - perspectives of trends in analytics – Conceptual - algorithmic –Tools –

applications –Technological. Python programming - anaconda python, jupyter notebook, spyder,
pandas, numpy, sklearn; importing files – csv, excel, json, text; data pre-processing using python;
building and evaluating ML models using sklearn, bagging and boosting; lab & use cases.
Unit II: Deep Learning – artificial neural networks, natural language processing, regression, text
classification, binary and multi-classification problems using tensorflow and keras; lab & use cases
– news article classification.
Unit III: Chabot – concept, creating a chatbot using deep learning, google Dialogflow, and AWS
Lex; lab & use cases – ticket booking.
Unit IV: Computer vision – concept, image processing, object detection with OpenCV; lab &
use cases – face recognition, bill approval system.
Unit V: Reinforcement learning – definition, types, how it is different form ML and DL;
supervised vs RL. Creating agent and reward system. Applications – self-driving car.
