Data Science Pipelines

What is a Data Science Pipeline?

A pipeline in data science is a workflow that involves various steps to solve critical business problems or derive actionable insights for decision making. Building a data science pipeline workflow includes activities such as capturing large amounts of data, cleaning and maintaining the data, data science modeling, and data visualization and analysis.

What is a Model in Data Science?

After data preparation and exploration, data scientists fit the data into data science models using machine learning algorithms. After selecting the correct data model for the data science pipeline architecture based on data type and business objective, the model is tested for accuracy and other characteristics.

In the case of predictive modeling, computational methods are used to develop predictive models that examine current and historical datasets for underlying patterns and to calculate the probability of an outcome. Data science machine learning techniques allow analysts throughout a wide variety of disciplines to uncover actionable insights, however it is very important to monitor the health of machine learning models and validate predictions alongside actual outcomes in order to achieve the desired results for business intelligence requirements.
