The unreasonable importance of data preparation

O'Reilly on Data

In a world focused on buzzword-driven models and algorithms, you’d be forgiven for forgetting about the unreasonable importance of data preparation and quality: your models are only as good as the data you feed them. The model and the data specification become more important than the code.

The quest for high-quality data

O'Reilly on Data

There has been a significant increase in our ability to build complex AI models for predictions, classifications, and various analytics tasks, and there’s an abundance of (fairly easy-to-use) tools that allow data scientists and analysts to provision complex models within days. Data integration and cleaning.

Managing risk in machine learning

O'Reilly on Data

Considerations for a world where ML models are becoming mission critical. In this post, I share slides and notes from a keynote I gave at the Strata Data Conference in New York last September. As the data community begins to deploy more machine learning (ML) models, I wanted to review some important considerations.

Analytics Insights and Careers at the Speed of Data

Rocket-Powered Data Science

Focus on the strategies that aim these tools, talents, and technologies on reaching business mission and goals: e.g., data strategy, analytics strategy, observability strategy ( i.e., why and where are we deploying the data-streaming sensors, and what outcomes should they achieve?).

What you need to know about product management for AI

O'Reilly on Data

All you need to know for now is that machine learning uses statistical techniques to give computer systems the ability to “learn” by being trained on existing data. After training, the system can make predictions (or deliver other results) based on data it hasn’t seen before. Machine learning adds uncertainty.

AI adoption in the enterprise 2020

O'Reilly on Data

Whether it’s controlling for common risk factors—bias in model development, missing or poorly conditioned data, the tendency of models to degrade in production—or instantiating formal processes to promote data governance, adopters will have their work cut out for them as they work to establish reliable AI production lines.
