隨波遂流Riding the Waves and Following the Flow Norden E. Huang 黄鍔 數據分析研究中心 My life is almost like a random walk. Though I have had a firm plan, I get here almost all by chance. Chance or Luck? Luck is when an adversity turns to become an advantage. ----My definition 從建中到竹中 從結構到流力 (遂流) 從流力到海洋 (隨波) 從海洋到數據分析 萬頃波中得自由 The best a scientist can give is the results not his philosophy. I am forced to violate this tenet today. My assignments today a.我的研究（與專業）簡介。 b.如何尋找與訂定研究題目。 c.研究過程中所遭遇的困難與克服方法。 d.學習途中最大的幫助從何而來？ e.學術路途寂寞嗎？如何排解與休閒？ f.推薦相關領域或個人具代表性著作為延伸閱讀書目。 Science vs. Philosophy Data and Data Analysis are what separate science from philosophy: With data we are talking about sciences; Without data we can only discuss philosophy. Henri Poincaré Science is built up of facts*, as a house is built of stones; but an accumulation of facts is no more a science than a heap of stones is a house.  * Here facts are indeed data. Data and Data Analysis Data Analysis is the key step in converting the ‘facts’ into the edifice of science. It is also the only means we can find the truth and the connect to the reality: It infuses meanings to the cold numbers, and lets data telling their own stories and singing their own songs. Un-examined facts yield no truth. Ever since the advance of computer, there is an explosion of data.  The situation has changed from a thirsty for data to that of drinking from a fire hydrant. Data and Data Analysis Data and Data Analysis are crucial for every single scientific and engineering endeavor, For data are the only connects between us and the real world.
