SMU ACADEMY

OVERVIEW

used in various settings from indicating underlying relationships to exposing characteristics of the data. This programme builds on the basic skills of Python with Matplotlib or equivalent, with advanced data visualisation techniques and packages drawn from the Python ecosystem.

Participants will learn how to make interactive data visualisation and interpret them as a basis for more involved quantitative techniques; where these plots can be used to yield statistical insights in lieu of plain numerical methods.

TRAINER PROFILE

Ian holds a Master of Science in Management Science & Engineering from Stanford University and a Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics & Economics from the University of California, Berkeley. His love for programming began when he dived into the study of Optimisation Algorithms and Machine Learning as a graduate student at Stanford. As a quant risk manager at Barclays, Ian got to further sharpen his craft programming risk engines and

numerical library (FORTRAN).

As founder of SG Code Campus, Ian has designed and taught comprehensive curricula in Python and JavaScript, as well as Data Science and Machine Learning to more advanced students. Apart from teaching advanced topics in computer science to senior

can better teach and engage our learners through a variety of modalities as well as technologies.
