Information for international students

This course examines the current and emerging Big Data Franeworks with focus on Data Science Applications. The course begins with an introduction to Data Scicence. Then focuces on the internals of Berkeley Data Analysis Framework, Spark, and Big Data Machine Learning (ML) pipelines. The course consists of  lectures and assignments.

 

General

The course consists of the lectures and assignments. At the end of the course there will be final exam. The assignments are based on Spark  Data Analysis Framework and Scala Programming Language.

Exercises

In first week exercise session, we have a Spark coding tutorial on Thursday 17.3. at 10-12. Please bring your laptop with you, if you have one. You can install the latest Spark version beforehand. The Spark Instructions are available here. We will be using Spark 1.6.0 with Scala 2.10.x.  Last year instructions  slides are available here: http://is.gd/bigdatascala. Scala By Example is here. All the exercises must be submitted via moodle.
