DATA ANALYSIS WITH PYTHON

This course is meant to provide an introduction to regression and applied statistics for the social sciences, with a strong emphasis on utilizing the Python software language to perform the key tasks in the data analysis workflow. Topics to be covered include various data structures, basic descriptive statistics, regression models, multiple regression analysis, interactions, polynomials, Gauss-Markov assumptions and asymptotics, heteroskedasticity and diagnostics, data visualization, models for binary outcomes, models for ordered data, first difference analysis, factor analysis, and cluster analysis. Through a variety of lab assignments, students will be able to generate and interpret quantitative data in helpful and provocative ways. Only relatively basic mathematics skills are assumed, but some more advanced math will be introduced as needed. A previous introductory statistics course that includes linear regression is helpful, but not required.

NATURAL LANG PROCESSING SOCIAL SCIENCES

Social scientists need to engage with natural language processing (NLP) approaches that are found in computer science, engineering, AI, tech and in industry. This course will provide an overview of natural language processing as it is applied in a number of domains. The goal is to gain familiarity with a number of critical topics and techniques that use text as data, and then to see how those NLP techniques can be used to produce social science research and insights. This course will be hands-on, with several large-scale exercises. The course will start with an introduction to Python and associated key NLP packages and github. The course will then cover topics like language modeling; part of speech tagging; parsing; information extraction; tokenizing; topic modeling; machine translation; sentiment analysis; summarization; supervised machine learning; and hidden Markov models. Prerequisites are basic probability and statistics, basic linear algebra and calculus. The course will use Python, and so if students have programmed in at least one software language, that will make it easier to keep up with the course.

MACHINE LEARNING SOC SCI

Prerequisites: basic probability and statistics, basic linear algebra, and calculus This course will provide a comprehensive overview of machine learning as it is applied in a number of domains. Comparisons and contrasts will be drawn between this machine learning approach and more traditional regression-based approaches used in the social sciences. Emphasis will also be placed on opportunities to synthesize these two approaches. The course will start with an introduction to Python, the scikit-learn package and GitHub. After that, there will be some discussion of data exploration, visualization in matplotlib, preprocessing, feature engineering, variable imputation, and feature selection. Supervised learning methods will be considered, including OLS models, linear models for classification, support vector machines, decision trees and random forests, and gradient boosting. Calibration, model evaluation and strategies for dealing with imbalanced datasets, n on-negative matrix factorization, and outlier detection will be considered next. This will be followed by unsupervised techniques: PCA, discriminant analysis, manifold learning, clustering, mixture models, cluster evaluation. Lastly, we will consider neural networks, convolutional neural networks for image classification and recurrent neural networks. This course will primarily us Python. Previous programming experience will be helpful but not requisite. Prerequisites: basic probability and statistics, basic linear algebra, and calculus.

MANAGING THE ENTERTMNT TECH MULTIVERSE

MGNG ENTERTAINMENT TECH MULTIV

The idea of a “multiverse” is derived from Big Bang and Black Hole cosmology. It posits an infinite set of alternative universes in the space/time continuum — in other words, what we identify as reality. Scientific theory aside, this is precisely what has occurred in the entertainment sphere as a result of advances in entertainment technology. We see how technology has obfuscated the demarcation and delineation lines between entertainment media. Rather than perceiving this as a problem or challenge, this course approaches such an evolution from the point-of-view of infinite possibilities. The breadth of content covered in this course ranges from Creative Commons licenses to the various interactive entertainment development technology platforms used to create games, virtual worlds, social media arenas, and cross-disciplinary initiatives as diverse as online gaming, media, branding, enterprise, government, military, and educational solutions.

RE-ENGNRING & THE SYSTEMS DEV LIFE CYCLE

RE-ENG & SYSTEMS DEV LIFE CYCL

This course provides students with the knowledge and techniques needed to lead major re-engineering projects, including reassessment of legacy systems and changing existing business processes. Understanding the differences between reengineering and continuous improvements and benchmarking is covered up-front together with common obstacles to business reengineering success (e.g., resistance to change, etc.) in an effort to drive towards a specific reengineering model. Legacy architectures from de-composable to non-decomposable are covered, and the role of gateways as well. The principles of distributed computing, i.e., object orientation, standards and the enterprise information architecture are covered as well as distributed systems designs and the level of performance testing needed to support them. Case studies are used to reinforce topics.
