Hello, and welcome to the “Power-to-the-Data Report” podcast where we cover timely topics of the day from throughout the Big Data ecosystem. I am your host Daniel Gutierrez from insideBIGDATA where I serve as Editor-in-Chief & Resident Data Scientist. Today’s topic is “The Math Behind the Models,” one of my favorite topics when I’m teaching my Introduction to Data Science class at UCLA. In the podcast, I’ll discuss how in the age of data-driven decision-making and artificial intelligence, the role of data scientists has become increasingly vital. However, to truly excel in this field, data scientists must possess a strong foundation in mathematics and statistics.
