Specifically the need to work with small data objects is becoming commonplace. Yes, there’s still plenty of large objects but small objects are becoming more prevalent than large for specific workloads and application environments.

AI is taking over. In 2021, we’re going to see machine learning taking on a bigger role in data analysis as algorithms become capable of reducing error and producing more accurate models within themselves. These algorithms cover iterative processes, decision trees as well as multi-dimensional splitting of datasets. Machine learning is enabling data analysts to have new and greater insights, affecting everything from marketing departments to the way we learn. Here are the essential machine…

I am a data scientist, and decided to open a restaurant last November, 10 days before the governor in my state banned dining-in (who knows for how long) and customers were already rare. Some data scientists in managerial positions dream about exiting the corporate world and envied me, at least before the Covid, when I told them my plan.
Here I explore the options and opportunities available, and this article reflects my optimism. I will also discuss analytics in some detail. The…

The development of business intelligence
Like many technologies, business intelligence models are also evolving. From the early days when BI was limited to excel worksheets, data was mainly stored on paper. Today, BI platforms have evolved so much that they define the course of action for organizations with new and novel approaches to improving efficiency in production, delivering sales and service experience to customers. In addition, knowing where our customers are,…

In the blog “How Can Your Organization Manage AI Model Biases?”, I wrote:
“In a world more and more driven by AI models, Data Scientists cannot effectively ascertain on their own the costs associated with the unintended consequences of False Positives and False Negatives. Mitigating unintended consequences requires the collaboration across a diverse set of stakeholders in…

I myself do epidemiologic research, which rarely calls for developing machine learning models. Instead, I spend my time developing logistic regression models that I have to be able to interpret for the broader scientific (and sometimes non-scientific) community. I have to be able to explain in some easy, risk-communication way not only the…

I have included a lot of Excel spreadsheets in the numerous articles and books that I have written in the last 10 years, based either on real life problems or simulations to test algorithms, and featuring various machine learning techniques. It is time to create a new blog series focusing on these useful techniques that can easily be handled with Excel. Data scientists typically use programming languages and other visual tools for these techniques, mostly because they are unaware that it can…
