About The Data Science Summer School

The Data Science Summer School is a series of theoretical and practical workshops on the exciting methods and technologies currently employed by industry, government, and civil society to address the world's most complex problems today. It is organized by the Hertie School Data Science Lab with funding and support from the Hertie School.

Workshop Details

An absolute must-have knowledge for data scientists is statistics and probability. They gives us the language and tools to quantify the uncertainty of events and reason in a principled manner. Machine learning is about developing predictive models from uncertain data, with imperfect or incomplete information. We can manage this uncertainty using the theories and tools of these two disciplines.
