Computer Sciences & data sciences
The incredible amount of data that our modern societies are accumulating has led to the development of specific techniques for sorting, ordering, analysing or displaying these data. Data sciences is the discipline based on mathematical, statistical and computer tools, including machine learning, that encompasses these techniques. This course will introduce to the students the basic notions and techniques of data sciences, including machine learning, with practical applications in Biomedical or Environmental engineering. The course includes a significant practical component with programming in the Python language.
