The term “Data science” comes in 1996 which was included in the title of a statistical conference (International Federation of Classification Societies (IFCS). In early 1997, there was an even more radical view suggesting to rename statistics to Data Science. Recently, “Donoho” provides an overview of Data Science which focuses on the evolution of Data Science from statistics. Statistics is one of the most important disciplines to provide tools and methods to find structure in and to give deeper insight into data, and the most important discipline to analyze and quantify uncertainty.
