Summary

The website content introduces a new series focused on simplifying research papers in data science and machine learning (ML), alongside announcing the author's upcoming PhD in Computer Science and providing a list of recommended courses and series for readers interested in the field.

Abstract

The author excitedly announces the commencement of their PhD journey in Computer Science and introduces a new educational series aimed at demystifying complex research papers in the domains of data science and ML. This series, titled "Data Science and ML Research(papers) simplified," is designed to break down the intricacies of research papers into more digestible terms. The author emphasizes the significant shift from industry work to academic research and acknowledges the support of mentors from both sectors. In addition to the new series, the author recommends a curated list of data science and ML courses, projects, and resources to aid readers in their learning endeavors. The content also includes a comprehensive list of areas the author plans to cover, including data mining, machine learning, natural language processing, and computer vision, with a focus on practical understanding and potential research contributions. The author invites readers to engage with the series, contribute ideas, and subscribe to a newsletter and YouTube channel for further insights and project implementations.

Opinions

  • The author believes that transitioning from industry to research is challenging but rewarding, and they are both thrilled and slightly nervous about this new phase.
  • They value the guidance and advice from their team of mentors from both industry and academia, who help refine research directions and provide support.
  • The author encourages active participation from the audience, welcoming paper recommendations and practical ideas to enhance the series.
  • They advocate for a hands-on approach to learning, emphasizing the importance of projects and practical applications in understanding complex concepts.
  • The author is committed to developing a deep and practical understanding of subtopics within data science and ML, aiming to contribute meaningfully to the field.
  • They express enthusiasm about the potential of the series to benefit existing and prospective PhD students, as well as anyone interested in the thrill of research.

Day 1 —Data Science and ML Research (Papers) Simplified

One Research Paper at a Time…

Welcome back peeps! Hope all’s going well.

Well, I’m beyond excited to share that I’ll be starting my PhD in Computer Science soon. I have always been interested in pragmatic research and as much as I’m thrilled ( and a little nervous); I’m taking this opportunity to develop a new series ( along with two other series that you can find here )— Data Science and ML Research(papers) simplified where I’ll be covering and sharing what, why and how of the different Research papers in simple terms that I’ll be reading along the way.

Highly Recommended Data Science and Machine Learning Courses that you MUST take ( with certificate) —

Complete Data Analyst

Complete Data Engineering

Complete Machine Learning Engineer

Complete Deep Learning

Complete Natural Language Processing

Complete Self Driving Car Engineer

To put it straight, jumping ships from industry to the core practical research isn’t easy. Research is a different ball game altogether and like me, there must be 1000’s of existing/prospective PhD CS students who will/are already sailing on this ship and enjoying/exploring the thrill of Research. So, this series is for them and myself and If I get time out of my busy schedule, I might start a youtube channel dedicated to Data Science and ML Research.

I have an amazing team of mentors ( from both industry and academia who are always there to resolve any hiccups that I face and often tell me to go slow…haha) to advise me, help refine my research directions, navigate me in the right direction when I’m strayed and what not!
