Big Ideas for Web Data Analysis on Big Data

Big Data

Big data, as the name suggests refers to large amount of Data. There is no climax to Big ideas.
For Example: Twitter tweets, Facebook posts, Whatsapp Chats per day

Instance
Whatsapp is chatting application. It is free of cost. It never show any ads. Still Facebook purchased it for $19,000,000,000 [1]. Why?

  • To extract behavioral patterns from chatting messages not as individual user but as a complete unit
This is what is called #BIG IDEA

Data Analysis

To analyse data, following actions are performed
  1. Data Extraction: Extracting data from different datasets/ websites
  2. Data Analysis: Analyzing the extracted data as per requirements
  3. Data Reporting: Representing actionable results from analysis
Study Data Science

Research on Web Data Analysis

Web Data Analysis is performed for different fields which includes

  1. Sentiment Analysis from Twitter Data
  2. Opinion Mining of big data
  3. Identifying trends from twitter data
  4. Identifying best tourist spot from Flickr data
  5. Ranking of quality blogs
  6. Text Summarization of data
  7. Clustering data into different chunks
  8. Predicting weather conditions
  9. Predicting stock market data
  10. Analysis of topic popularity
  11. Analyzing popularity during elections
  12. Recommendation system for shopping in ecommerce websites
  13. Automatic tracking of web data
  14. Notification system for event in town
  15. Identification of Buzz in education system

The are some of the upcoming research and implementations which are going in industry. Apart from these big data ideas, we have many more.

Different Fields for Data Science

Image
Data science , also known as   data-driven science , is an interdisciplinary field about scientific methods, processes and systems to extract   knowledge   or insights from   data   in various forms, either structured or unstructured,similar to   Knowledge Discovery in Databases   (KDD). Data science is a " concept to unify statistics, data analysis and their related methods " in order to "understand and analyze actual phenomena" with data.   It employs techniques and theories drawn from many fields within the broad areas of   mathematics,   statistics,   information science, and   computer science, in particular from the subdomains of   machine learning,   classification,   cluster analysis,   data mining,   databases, and   visualization. Turing award   winner   Jim Gray   imagined data science as a " fourth paradigm " of science (empirical,   theoretical, computationa...

Different types of clustering for textual documents

Clustering Model 1: Nearest Neighbour Algorithms: KD-Trees and Locality Sensitive Hashing Core Machine Learning Concepts: Distance Metrics and Approximation Algorithms Problem Domain: Finding similar documents Nearest neighbour: Find distance between all other documents and query document. Retrieve the document which is closest Critical Component Document Representation Computing Distances Scaling to large dataset: KD Trees - Not appropriate for very high dimensional documents Thus, Locality sensitive hashing is used for approximate nearest neighbour search. Clustering Model 2: Capturing uncertainty in clustering: Mixture Models Any document can be related to t i topic by x%. Can learn users topic preferences Making soft assignments to clusters -Expectation Maximization Clustering Model 3: Latent dirichlet allocation Mixed membership Probability of words in vocabulary Unsupervised learning task

Significance of Woman in Data Science

Image
Research scientists, regardless of gender, are doing great in this field. This has been evidenced by a great conference " Global Women in Data Science " hosted by Stanford University (livestream) for 75+ locations all over the world on 3rd February 2017. Many talented academic researchers and practitioners have successful connected to make their dreams and goals burst into reality. It has been sponsored by Microsoft, Google, WalmartLabs, SAP and many more A Grade firms.  Fig 1: Global Women in Data Science Another great initiative, Women in Machine Learning   has been hosted on Facebook. Many female potential researchers join hands for research in machine learning. Many of them have achieved great milestones and many are still on the way.  The world is full of talented, successful and fantastic female speakers Women in Machine Learning and Data science are often un-noticable by traditional recruiters and we can turn it down. Another initiative at Meet...
