Applications

Of Differential
Equations in
Data Science
Introduction
Modeling Complex Systems is
crucial for understanding many
real-world phenomena in science
and engineering. Differential
Equations play a key role in
modeling such systems. This
presentation will describe the
importance of differential equations
in data science.
What are Differential Equations?

A differential equation is an
equation that relates a function to
its derivatives. They are used to
model many physical and biological
systems. There are two types:
ordinary differential equations
and partial differential equations.
Applications of Differential Equations

Differential equations are used to model a wide


variety of systems, including population
growth, heat transfer, fluid dynamics, and
chemical reactions. Solving these equations
allows us to make predictions and understand
the underlying mechanisms of these systems.
Numerical Methods for Solving Differential
Equations

Exact solutions to differential equations are


often difficult or impossible to find. Instead,
numerical methods are used to approximate
solutions.
These methods include Euler's method,
Runge- Kutta methods, and finite difference
methods.

Differential equations can be used
Models
to model a wide range of
phenomena,
from the spread of infectious
diseases to the behavior of financial
markets.
Examples include the SIR m odel,
which models the spread of
disease, and the Black-Scholes
model, which models stock prices.
C onclusion
Differential equations are a powerful tool for modeling
complex systems. They allow us to make predictions and
understand the underlying mechanisms of these
systems.
While exact solutions are often difficult or impossible to
find, numerical methods provide a way to approximate
solutions. Differential equations will continue to play a key
role in data science and other fields.
