Data Science as a Research Method

The course is targeted at PhD students and young researchers who want to apply data science methods in their research. It covers various data preparation, statistical modeling, and visualization techniques for extracting knowledge from the vast and complex data sets that have emerged in business over the past years. The learning objective of the course is to enable participants to apply these techniques in design-oriented and/or quantitative empirical research projects.

Topics include supervised machine learning for regression and classification (linear and non-linear models), unsupervised machine learning (e.g., clustering, dimensionality reduction), ensemble models, AutoML, interpretability of machine learning, and natural language processing (e.g., dictionary-based methods, supervised text classification, topic modeling).
