Podcast: VR in data exploration

Podcast: VR in data exploration

Virtual reality, and augmented reality for data science

Virtual reality (VR) is a computer-generated simulation of a three-dimensional image or environment that can be interacted with in a seemingly real or physical way by a person using special electronic equipment, such as virtual reality goggles. It is typically interactive, meaning the user can participate in the activity.

Companies are increasingly using VR to explore data. They use this to generate more insightful data visualizations and make it easier for the users to understand and interact with their data.

In this episode we discuss more with Jess and Jim!

Podcast: Organisational culture in tech with Dr Clif Lewis

Podcast: Organisational culture in tech with Dr Clif Lewis

“The culture at a startup is typically what attracts people to join and what keeps the startup going.”

“Delays in hiring those executives or the recruitment of the wrong people can lead to strategic drift, spiraling costs, and a dysfunctional culture.”

-Harvard Business Review

In a business environment plagued by uncertainty and an industry characterised by constant change, organisational culture offers a means of organising your tech company in a manner that creates both meaning and value.

Podcast: Tom Burns on neural networks and general AI

Podcast: Tom Burns on neural networks and general AI

Neural networks are the backbone of deep learning, a branch of machine learning. Artificial intelligence (AI) is considered to be a subset of general AI. General artificial intelligence is the ability for a computer program to perform tasks that would otherwise require human intelligence or expertise. Neural networks work by filtering information and attempting to find patterns in that information.

One such neural network is called the Hopfield network; its typical use case includes pattern recognition tasks. It has been around since the 1980s, but some recent discoveries place it under a new light.

On this podcast we discuss about the relationship between the Hopfield network, deep learning and what's next for General AI with Tom Burns, a PhD researchers based in Okinawa, Japan.

Deep learning: The truths, the myths and the future

Deep learning is a type of machine learning that can be used to make predictions from data. It is a subset of machine learning and it has been around for a few decades.

In recent years, deep learning has made significant progress in many areas such as image recognition, speech recognition, natural language processing and translation.

Deep Learning is used in many real-world applications such as computer vision, autonomous vehicle driving, voice recognition and natural language processing among others.

The use cases of deep learning are limitless.

The economics of data businesses

The economics of data businesses

Companies like Bloomberg, or Stats Perform are some of the best examples of data businesses. These companies collect, curate and then package data in a way that data can be used to create value in many different use cases.

Creating a startup in this space is not something easy. Data businesses are peculiar, but when they work, they work very well and scale.

On this podcast we discuss this very interesting subject. This episode is based on a very interesting post by the Pivotal newsletter, written by Abraham Thomas.

Podcast: Blockchain analytics with Freddy Zwanzger

Blockchain and data science are two of the hottest technologies right now. It is not often that you hear about both of them being used in tandem.

However, one company is doing exactly that. I had the chance to interview Freddy Zwanzger from Anyblock Analytics. Anyblock Analytics allows anyone to analyse data from various blockchains, through their API. This is fascinating for anyone who wants to dig deep into the blockchain, and discover interesting patterns. This can be anything, from crypto trading, to decentralised finance.

Data tactics vs data strategy: An interview with Ruben Sardaryan on data strategy

Data tactics vs data strategy: An interview with Ruben Sardaryan on data strategy

Data strategy is one of the most important parts of any data science project. Unfortunately, it is not very recognised.

Most data science/AI projects fail, as the result of the lack of a data strategy. This is one of the reasons that on this podcast, I have talked a lot about the importance of data strategy for companies of all stages and sizes.

On this interview, we are talking with Ruben Sardaryan, who is a data strategy expert from Toronto. One of the most interesting bits of this interview is the explanation of the difference between data tactics and data strategy. Most companies focus on the former, but should really focus on the latter.

We hope you enjoy this interesting conversation!

AI and art is an area that I am a huge fan of. This is why I am organising a Meetup in this area

On this podcast I discuss some of the my thoughts after the November 2020 meetup. We had the chance to have with us 4 great speakers, and we discussed about a multitude of topics, including the future of this area. I would be very interested to hear what everyone else thinks. Feel free to get in touch through The Data Scientist.

What is the drivetrain approach for building data products?

There are many different processes to create data product. The drivetrain approach is one such approach discussed on O'Reilly's blog. In this episode, I elaborate on how this approach can help a business use data science, and I compare it to other data science processes, such as the Predict-and-Optimise framework.

A recent article in the Significance magazine (https://www.significancemagazine.com/) raised the opinion that many statisticians are in roles that do not really add any value to society. If that's true, then there are tremendous implications that need to be discussed. On this episode, we talk about this issue, and unravel the truth.
