Big Data MOOC

Join @t_preis & @suzymoat's #FLBigData MOOC to explore how the vast amounts of data generated today can help us predict how humans behave. Starts on 22 May 2017

[Data Science Lab @thedatascilab]

🚨 Registration deadline today, Mon 20 May!

Find out how to use #DataScience and #AI to better understand human behaviour.

Two days of excellent tutorials from speakers including @JoelSuss @elisa_omodei @Fede_Botta @Walid_Magdy @nrennie35

Just published: #COVID19 has shone a spotlight on the importance of timely indicators to make good decisions. Here, we use @GoogleTrends to generate rapid estimates of visitor numbers to @DCMS-sponsored museums such as the @NationalGallery https://t.co/YZTb1neHsQ 1/4

[Data Science Lab @thedatascilab]

In this @epj_ds paper, our @exetercompsci colleague @Fede_Botta and our own @t_preis and @suzymoat show that data on @Google searches for museums can be used to generate early estimates of visitor numbers before official figures are published by @DCMS. 2/4

[Data Science Lab @thedatascilab]

The arts have been hit badly by #COVID19. Using online data to generate rapid indicators of the renewed uptake of publicly funded cultural opportunities could offer policymakers early insights into the post-#COVID19 recovery of this vital sector. 3/4

But what are the challenges in using this data for #officialstatistics? We highlight some practical considerations in our new tourism statistics paper, just out https://t.co/zBeB7IcM53 #dataviz

New visualisation using @lightwave3d with a bit of help from #R and #Python, depicting where 35 million #Flickr photos were taken. Published in our new @thedatascilab paper, where we infer global travel flows using online data https://t.co/cW8v7zizzF #dataviz #datavisualization

Absolutely delighted to announce that yesterday @thedatascilab's @thoughtsymmetry passed her PhD viva with no corrections! We forgot to take a pic in all the excitement ;) so here's an old one from the @BigDataMOOC. Huge congrats Dr Seresinhe - so very well deserved! @turinginst

[Steve Dale @stephendale]

Have completed WBS's 9-week @BigDataMOOC - learnt so much, including how to program in R. Thanks to @suzymoat @t_preis #FLbigdata

[Big Data MOOC @BigDataMOOC]

@isholamd Hi Ishola, brilliant to hear you enjoyed it. We're on our third run now, so here's hoping... Stay in touch! #FLbigdata @suzymoat @t_preis

[Sarah Ardin @ArdinSarah]

@BigDataMOOC thanks for an interesting course. Now to see how I can apply to social care at warwickshire county council :)

[Big Data MOOC @BigDataMOOC]

@ArdinSarah Fantastic to hear you're hoping to put the course material to use - we'd really love to know how you get on! @suzymoat @t_preis #FLbigdata
