About Us

We Have One objective

To share UTP-CeRDaS Strength and Capability towards Big Data Analytics Research.

The Centre for Research in Data Science CeRDaS aspires to share UTP strength and Capability towards Big Data Analytics Research. CeRDaS focuses on three main project pillars which include Solution Data Driven, Ecosystem Infrastructure, and Human Development. These pillars aimed to support digital drive of big data ecosystem readiness in clients, to develop own customize AI solution that meets domain needs based on pain points of business, and to make a ready platform for talent development by combining technology know how together with data knowledge expertise.

Our Vision

  • To conduct cutting-edge research and develop data scientist to deliver innovative solutions for industries and society.
  • To become the leading data science solution provider to industries and society through innovative research and consultancy.

Our Mission

  • To focus on data science research and education.
  • To develop data science leaders of tomorrow.
  • To deliver innovative data science technologies and solutions.
  • To collaborate with industry leaders specializing in the oil and gas industries.

Niche Area

  • Data Science environment that combines domain expertise, analytics programming, capable human development as well as statistical analysis to extract meaningful insights from data.
  • A descriptive, diagnostic, predictive, prognostic and prescriptive Big Data Analytics such as corrosion rate prediction, remaining useful life prediction as well as data quality and understanding.
  • Application of Machine Learning through supervised, unsupervised and  reinforced machine learning customization algorithms according to client pain points such as sentiment analysis and artificial intelligence (AI) modelling.
