Are you interested in taking your first step towards becoming a Data Scientist? Join us for our first-ever Data Science workshop on Data Preprocessing!🥳

Data Preprocessing is a preliminary step for everything related to Data Science, machine learning, and AI. In this workshop, you will learn how to prepare data for analysis and develop the necessary skills, including:
• Importing the data
• Handling missing values
• Splitting data into training and test data
• Feature scaling
• Encoding categorical data
We have designed the workshop to be interactive and hands-on, so you will have the opportunity to practice what you learn. In future workshops, you will have the chance to dive into data visualization, regression, reinforcement learning, NLP, deep learning, boosting models, and more.

📌Join us in 7.105 at 18:00 on April 12th. Mark your calendars and don't miss out on this exciting opportunity!
