TEHRAN – The book “Data Science: A Quick Guide to the Modern Data Governance” has been published by Iranian authors.
The book is authored by Hemed Kioumarsi and Marzieh Alidoust, and edited by Samuel C. Allen.
Kioumarsi is a researcher at the Agricultural Research, Education and Extension Organization of the Islamic Republic of Iran’s Ministry of Agriculture.
He said the book was written and published in line with the goals of the Agricultural Research, Education and Extension Organization.
“Thus, it is considered a research work with an international and broader perspective. That is why it is written and published in English,” he said.
“Data scientists are likely to face a growing demand for their skills in different fields. We were researching the highest-paying jobs that are predicted to be in demand for the future and interestingly, the data scientists are at the top of the list,” he said.
Kioumarsi said it took less than two years to write the book which contains important topics such as practical data science, artificial intelligence (AI) in agriculture, and machine learning.
The book, he said, is intended for those who wish to develop a broad understanding of data science and related subjects in order to excel in their study and work.
It is a detailed and well-structured guide that may also be used as a reference book, he added.
