| 263-3300-00L | Data Science Lab  Number of participants limited to 30. In the Master Programme max. 10 credits can be accounted by Labs on top of the Interfocus Courses. Additional Labs will be listed on the Addendum. | 10 credits | 9P | C. Zhang, K. Schawinski | |
| Abstract | In this class, we bring together data science applications provided by ETH researchers outside computer science and teams of computer science master's students. Two to three students will form a team working on data science/machine learning-related research topics provided by scientists in a diverse range of domains such as astronomy, biology, social sciences etc. | ||||
| Learning objective | The goal of this class if for students to gain experience of dealing with data science and machine learning applications "in the wild". Students are expected to go through the full process starting from data cleaning, modeling, execution, debugging, error analysis, and quality/performance refinement. Website: https://dslab.io | ||||
| Prerequisites / Notice | Each student is required to send the lecturer their CV and transcript and the lecturer will decide the enrollment on a per-student basis. Moreover, the students are expected to have experience about machine learning and deep learning. EMAIL to send CV: ce.zhang@inf.ethz.ch | ||||
