Books co-authored by Prof. U Dinesh Kumar launched at IIM Bangalore on July 16

Titled ‘Machine Learning Using R’ and ‘Data Visualization – Storytelling Using Data’, the books aim to make concepts simpler, compelling and comprehensible for students and practitioners. “Today, a common problem that a lot of Boardrooms face is to interpret the huge overload of data available in order to make effective decisions. This is where Data Storytelling comes into play. These books, with interesting data sets, add value to the Data Science community,” said Dr. U Dinesh Kumar, Chairperson, Data Centre and Analytics Lab (DCAL) and faculty in the Decision Sciences (DS) area of IIM Bangalore, during the launch of two books which he has co-authored. The books have been published by Wiley.
