Data is the New Oil” was coined by The Economist in May 2017 and became a mantra for organizations to drive new wealth from data. But in reality, data by itself has no value. The rapid growth of data volumes has effectively outstripped our ability to process and analyze it. Unleash the power of advanced analytics.

For example, imagine a fantasy football site is considering displaying advanced player statistics. A ramp-up strategy may mitigate the risk of upsetting the site’s loyal users who perhaps have strong preferences for the current statistics that are shown. One reason to do ramp-up is to mitigate the risk of never before seen arms.

As a result, there has been a recent explosion in individual statistics that try to measure a player’s impact. Eighty percent of this problem is collecting the data and then transforming the data. The other 20 percent is ML- and data science–related tasks like finding the right model, doing EDA, and feature engineering.

An obvious requisite property of reconciliation is arithmetic coherence across the hierarchy (which is implicit in the sum-up-from-the-bottom possibility in the previous paragraph), but more sophisticated reconciliation may induce statistical stability of the constituent forecasts and improve forecast accuracy across the hierarchy.

The lens of reductionism and an overemphasis on engineering becomes an Achilles heel for data science work. Instead, consider a “full stack” tracing from the point of data collection all the way out through inference.

In what follows, assume we have a large number of items and people, so that the measures have little statistical uncertainty.
