AI Data Litercay Unit 2
Learning Objectives:
1. To define data literacy.
2. To differentiate data security and privacy.
3. To explore various data interpretation techniques.
Data literacy is the ability to understand, interpret and communicate with data.
Data Literacy Process Framework provides guidance on using data efficiently and with all levels of awareness.
Data literacy framework is an iterative process.
Data privacy referred to as information privacy is concerned with the proper handling of sensitive data including
personal data and other confidential data, such as certain financial data and intellectual property data, to meet
regulatory requirements as well as protecting the confidentiality and immutability of the data.
Data security is the practice of protecting digital information from unauthorized access, corruption, or theft
throughout its entire lifecycle.
Cyber security involves protecting computers, servers, mobile devices, electronic systems, networks, and data
from harmful attacks.
Types of data
Sources of Data
● Primary Data Sources — Some of the sources for primary data include surveys, interviews, experiments, etc.
The data generated from the experiment is an example of primary data.
● Secondary Data Sources—Secondary data collection obtains information from external sources, rather than
generating it personally.
Usability of Data: There are three primary factors determining the usability of data:
Features of Data : Data features are the characteristics or properties of the data. In AI models, we need two
types of features: independent and dependent. Independent features are the input to the model—they're the
information we provide to make predictions. Dependent features, on the other hand, are the outputs or results
of the model—they're what we're trying to predict.
▪ It is the process of making sense out of data that has been processed.
