Welcome to the PHS Data Science and AI Club

About Us

The Prosper High School (PHS) Data Science and AI Club is a student-driven organization dedicated to exploring and applying the principles of data science. Our club provides students with the opportunity to dive into the world of data analytics, where they learn how to collect, process, and analyze data to make informed decisions and uncover insights.

Our Mission and Goals

At the heart of the PHS Data Science and AI Club is a commitment to education and skill-building. We offer workshops, guest lectures, and collaborative projects that cover various aspects of data science, including statistical analysis, machine learning, and data visualization.

Goals

  • Empower students with data literacy and analytical skills.
  • Encourage innovation through data-driven solutions.
  • Promote collaboration and networking among members.
  • Prepare students for success in academic and professional data science environments.

Skills Needed for Applicants

Applicants should have a basic understanding of statistics, proficiency in data analysis tools like Python or R, curiosity to learn new data science techniques, and strong communication skills.

Our Stock Market Project

Learn about our ongoing project analyzing stock market data using data science techniques and Machine Learning. Officers have the opportunity to work on our Stock Market App.

Explore Our Prototypes

So far, we have developed two prototype Python AI Models on Google Colab. The first model evaluates confidence and accuracy using statistical metrics such as R² and Linear Regression, while the second model serves as a prediction tool trained on a mean-squared error model and several other essential statistical concepts.

Interactive Workshops

Participate in hands-on workshops where you can apply data science concepts to practical scenarios. Enhance your skills and collaborate with peers.

Basics of Data Science and AI

Introduction to Data Science and AI

Data science is a multidisciplinary field that uses scientific methods, processes, algorithms, and systems to extract knowledge and insights from structured and unstructured data. It combines aspects of statistics, computer science, and domain expertise to solve complex problems.

Core Concepts

  • Statistics: The foundation of data science, involving data collection, analysis, interpretation, presentation, and organization.
  • Machine Learning: A method of data analysis that automates analytical model building, allowing systems to learn from data, identify patterns, and make decisions with minimal human intervention.
  • Data Mining: The process of discovering patterns in large data sets using methods at the intersection of machine learning, statistics, and database systems.
  • Data Visualization: The graphical representation of data to help understand complex data sets and derive insights.

Tools and Technologies

Data scientists use a variety of tools and technologies to analyze data. Some popular tools include:

  • Programming Languages: Python, R
  • Data Manipulation: Pandas, NumPy
  • Data Visualization: Matplotlib, Seaborn, Tableau
  • Machine Learning: Scikit-Learn, TensorFlow, Keras
  • Big Data: Hadoop, Spark
