Difference between Data Science and Machine Learning

Data Science

  • Data science is a field that studies data and how to extract meaning from it, using a series of methods, algorithms, systems, and tools to extract insights from structured and unstructured and unstructured data.
  • That knowledge then gets applied to business, government, and other bodies to help drive profits, innovate products and services and public systems, and more.

Machine Learning

  • Machine Learning is a branch of artificial intelligence that uses algorithms to extract data and then predict future trends. Software is programmed with models that allow engineers to conduct statistical patterns In the data.
  • Data scientists often incorporate machine learning in their work where appropriate, to help gather more information faster or to assist with trends analysis.

Skills Needed

Data Science

  • Strong knowledge of programming languages like Python, R, SAS, and more.
  • Familiarity working with large amount of structure and unstructured data.
  • Comfortable with processing and analyzing data for business needs.
  • Understanding of math, statistics, and probability.
  • Data visualization and data wrangling skills.
  • Knowledge of machine learning algorithms and models.
  • Good communication and teamwork skills.

Machine Learning

  • Expertise in computer science, including data structures, algorithms, and architecture.
  • Strong understanding of statistics and probability.
  • Knowledge of software engineering and systems design.
  • Programming knowledge, such as Python, R and more.
  • Ability to conduct data modelling and analysis.
