I wrote this book as I got an interview offer for Data Analyst. There they asked me a lot of questions and there was an exam. This helped me a lot to write the book based on the interview questions faced by me and the knowledge gained by working on AI projects. I then added all my other knowledge working as a Data Analyst on my other projects and wrote the book. Technical books need a lot of attention, as they need deep checks, but I tried to do my best. Not everything can be included in detail, it is impossible. I have tried to include everything related to Data Science that is presently going on in the industry and the world.

This book presents the outcomes of the 3rd IEEE/ACIS International Conference on Big Data, Cloud Computing, Data Science & Engineering (BCD 2018), which was held on July 10–12, 2018 in Kanazawa. The aim of the conference was to bring together researchers and scientists, businesspeople and entrepreneurs, teachers, engineers, computer users, and students to discuss the various fields of computer science, to share their experiences, and to exchange new ideas and information in a meaningful way. All aspects (theory, applications and tools) of computer and information science, the practical challenges encountered along the way, and the solutions adopted to solve them are all explored here. The conference organizers selected the best papers from among those accepted for presentation. The papers were chosen on the basis of review scores submitted by members of the program committee and subsequently underwent further rigorous review. Following this second round of review, 13 of the conference’s most promising papers were selected for this Springer (SCI) book. We eagerly await the important contributions that we know these authors will make to the field of computer and information science.
