This presentation was prepared for a talk on 2014.08.06 at the NYC Algorithmic Trading meetup (http://www.meetup.com/NYC-Algorithmic-Trading/events/197749772/)
Regardless of whether you call it "data science", "business intelligence", "analytics", "statistics" or just plain old "math", we have many tried and true techniques for dealing with uncertainty (particularly in quantitative finance). But ambiguity—what problem do we need to solve in the first place?—is a separate matter and, at least in my experience, is the hardest part of creating value from data. During this talk, I'll discuss how we address ambiguity by giving a guided tour of some of our client projects, such as how to reduce legal e-discovery costs by 99% (hint: supervised binary classification of text documents) or how to assemble project teams on emerging R&D opportunities in a multinational organization (hint: unsupervised classification of employee expertise).
This talk was prepared for NUvention Analytics on 2015.04.09 as a set of examples to help students learn why the iterative design process is a compelling way to build tools, products, etc.

Regardless of whether you call it "business intelligence", "big data", "analytics" or just plain old "math", we have many tried and true techniques for dealing with uncertainty. But ambiguity is a separate matter and, at least in my experience, is the hardest part of creating value from data. During this talk, I will illustrate how the design process can be used to solve ambiguous problems by drawing on projects we've done at Datascope.
Novel machine learning techniques comes from spending time with people that have distinct needs. This talk addresses how listening to end users can give rise to novel machine learning applications.
One of the biggest challenges in the data age is overcoming the problematic belief that data has all the answers. The truth is – data is a resource, not a solution. In order to extract valuable and actionable insights, it is necessary to ask and re-ask certain questions. This talk is about figuring out what these questions are and exposes some of the limitations of common, and seemingly intuitive, approaches to data problems. As an alternative, I introduce the concept of using human-centered design principles and an iterative process to approach what you do with Big (and small) Data. As exemplars, I will walk-through a quick informal example and a real Datascope client project to highlight the flexibility and speed of these techniques.

20131212 BrightTALK: design and data scienceDean Malmgren
When you hear someone say, “that is a nice infographic” or “check out this sweet dashboard,” many people infer that they are “well-designed.” Creating accessible (or for the cynical, “pretty”) content is only part of what makes good design powerful. The human-centered design process is geared toward solving specific problems. This process has been formalized in many ways (e.g., IDEO’s Human Centered Design, Marc Hassenzahl’s User Experience Design, or Braden Kowitz’s Story-Centered Design), but the basic idea is that you have to explore the breadth of the possible before you can isolate truly innovative ideas. In this talk, I'll share some lessons we've learned from the human-centered design process and how those lessons can be used by other data science practitioners.
Datascope: Designing your Data Viz - The (Iterative) ProcessMollie Pettit
This talk was given to a Data Visualization course, which is part of the Masters of Science in Analytics program at the Northwestern School of Engineering.
It walks through:
- Why to visualize data
- A common (linear) approach to data problems
- A look at a problem in an ambiguos world, and why the linear approach does not always get one to their ideal end point
- A better (iterative) approach
- how to get started on a project through the important practice of brainstorming
-An informal project example. In this example, an iterative approach to the visualization helped the creator to gain new insights which changed her story's focus all-together.
-A case study of a project done for Procter & Gamble. In this example, an iterative approach redirected us from a more complicated network graph of the company (which we initially assumed would be an end-result) to displaying data in a simpler way (e.g. bar charts), which was more ideal for the client.
-Another case study. In this example, an iterative approach led us to create a less obvious / more creative visualization that stressed the things that were most important to the client. Nearly every single iteration step (all of which were shown to the client) are shown in the slides.
It ends with a reminder that doing is better than planning. You really can't learn what your ideal end-product will be until you get started; while working, one must constantly ask questions and gain feedback, and refine the approach accordingly.

The future of big data analytics depends heavily on two factors: access and performance. Within the current landscape, business analysts can be limited by the data preparation process, which is often greatly slowed when requesting data from multi-structured sources such as Hadoop. The result? An encumbered workflow. Fortunately, a new solution built on Apache Spark, the open source cluster computing framework, has emerged and has the potential to disrupt the current analytics paradigm.
Register for this episode of The Briefing Room to hear veteran Analyst Dr. Robin Bloor as he explains how big data has forced a sea change in analytical processes. He'll be briefed by Denise Hemke of Platfora, who will tout her company's Big Data Analytic Platform for Hadoop. She will provide a demo and show how Platfora's end-to-end platform can bring next generation capabilities to analytical workflows, including faster access for analysts and more robust development for data scientists.

"Behind the AI Curtain - Designing for Machine Learning Products" by Crystal YanProductized
When startups first launch, they can make the news with application of cutting edge artificial intelligence (AI) – but convincing users to trust the AI is often another story. There’s often also no process for integrating future AI development into product roadmaps.
In this PRODUCTIZED talk, Crystal Yan covers three key principles for how design and data science teams can work together better to build greater trust among users. Additionally, a case study on how a design and data science team partnered to redesign predictive analytics scores powered by machine learning will illustrate those principles in practice.

But do you have a team building an ML model? How far are they from the IT team? Do they know how to deploy and serve that? Testing? And sharing what they have done? That's where a devops mindset comes in: reduce the batch size, continuous-everything and a culture of failure/experimentation are vital for your data team!

NDC Oslo : A Practical Introduction to Data ScienceMark West
Data Science has been described as the sexiest job of the 21st Century. But what is Data Science? And what has Machine Learning got to do with all this?
In this talk I will share insights and knowledge that I have gained from building up a Data Science department from scratch. This talk will be split into three sections:
(1) I’ll begin by defining what Data Science is, how it is related to Machine Learning and share some tips for introducing Data Science to your organisation.
(2) Next up we’ll run through some commonly used Machine Learning algorithms used by Data Scientists, along with examples for use cases where these algorithms can be applied.
(3) The final third of the talk will be a demonstration of how you can quickly get started with Data Science and Machine Learning using Python and the Open Source scikit-learn Library.

As a data science consulting firm, we work across a broad range of industries to help its clients solve their most pressing business challenges. Recently, Datascope has used its process of solving problems with data to help solve some of its own challenges. We struggled with predicting tax payments, knowing when it was “good to hire” and generally understanding the mechanics of our business. During this talk, I will describe Datascope’s journey and how it has instrumented its own business—from Monte Carlo simulations of our finances to tracking time against specific projects—so that it can operate more efficiently and keep its team members ever happier with their roles and responsibilities.

As Europe's leading economic powerhouse and the fourth-largest hashtag#economy globally, Germany stands at the forefront of innovation and industrial might. Renowned for its precision engineering and high-tech sectors, Germany's economic structure is heavily supported by a robust service industry, accounting for approximately 68% of its GDP. This economic clout and strategic geopolitical stance position Germany as a focal point in the global cyber threat landscape.
In the face of escalating global tensions, particularly those emanating from geopolitical disputes with nations like hashtag#Russia and hashtag#China, hashtag#Germany has witnessed a significant uptick in targeted cyber operations. Our analysis indicates a marked increase in hashtag#cyberattack sophistication aimed at critical infrastructure and key industrial sectors. These attacks range from ransomware campaigns to hashtag#AdvancedPersistentThreats (hashtag#APTs), threatening national security and business integrity.
🔑 Key findings include:
🔍 Increased frequency and complexity of cyber threats.
🔍 Escalation of state-sponsored and criminally motivated cyber operations.
🔍 Active dark web exchanges of malicious tools and tactics.
Our comprehensive report delves into these challenges, using a blend of open-source and proprietary data collection techniques. By monitoring activity on critical networks and analyzing attack patterns, our team provides a detailed overview of the threats facing German entities.
This report aims to equip stakeholders across public and private sectors with the knowledge to enhance their defensive strategies, reduce exposure to cyber risks, and reinforce Germany's resilience against cyber threats.
Techniques to optimize the pagerank algorithm usually fall in two categories. One is to try reducing the work per iteration, and the other is to try reducing the number of iterations. These goals are often at odds with one another. Skipping computation on vertices which have already converged has the potential to save iteration time. Skipping in-identical vertices, with the same in-links, helps reduce duplicate computations and thus could help reduce iteration time. Road networks often have chains which can be short-circuited before pagerank computation to improve performance. Final ranks of chain nodes can be easily calculated. This could reduce both the iteration time, and the number of iterations. If a graph has no dangling nodes, pagerank of each strongly connected component can be computed in topological order. This could help reduce the iteration time, no. of iterations, and also enable multi-iteration concurrency in pagerank computation. The combination of all of the above methods is the STICD algorithm. [sticd] For dynamic graphs, unchanged components whose ranks are unaffected can be skipped altogether.

Lorem Ipsum: a narrative about blankets.
Author: Charlie Brown
Date: 31 Jan 2012
!
Lorem Ipsum is a dummy text used when typesetting or marking up documents. It has a
long history starting from the 1500s and is still used in digital millennium for typesetting
electronic documents, page designs, etc.
!
In itself, the original text of Lorem Ipsum might have been taken from an ancient Latin
book that was written about 50 BC. Nevertheless, Lorem Ipsum’s words have been
changed so they don’t read as a proper text.
!
Naturally, page designs that are made for text documents must contain some text rather
than placeholder dots or something else. However, should they contain proper English
words and sentences almost every reader will deliberately try to interpret it eventually,
missing the design itself.
!
However, a placeholder text must have a natural distribution of letters and punctuation
or otherwise the markup will look strange and unnatural. That’s what Lorem Ipsum helps
to achieve.
!
I would like to thank Peppermint Pattyfor her support on studying
Lorem Ipsum as well as the infinite wisdom of Linus van Peltand his
willingness to use his blanket in my experiments.
