How I used NLP (Spacy) to screen Data Science Resumes

Resume making is very tricky. A candidate has many dilemmas, whether to state a project at length or just mention the bare minimum whether to mention many skills or just mention his/her core competency skill whether to mention many programming languages or just cite a few whether to restrict the resume to 2 pages or 1 page These dilemmas are equally hard for Data Scientists looking for a change or even for aspiring Data Scientist.

Stocks, Significance Testing & p-Hacking: How volatile is volatile?

October is historically the most volatile month for stocks, but is this a persistent signal or just noise in the data? Stocks, Significance Testing & p-Hacking. Follow me on Twitter (twitter.com/pdquant) for more. Over the past 32 years, October has been the most volatile month on average for the S&P500 and December the least, in this article we will use simulation to assess the statistical significance of this observation and to what extent this observation could occur by chance. All code […]

Apache Kafka + KSQL + TensorFlow for Data Scientists via Python + Jupyter Notebook

Why would a data scientist use Kafka Jupyter Python KSQL TensorFlow all together in a single notebook? There is an impedance mismatch between model development using Python and its Machine Learning tool stack and a scalable, reliable data platform. The former is what you need for quick and easy prototyping to build analytic models. The latter is what you need to use for data ingestion, preprocessing, model deployment and monitoring at scale. It requires low latency, high throughput, zero data […]

How to make you own Wiki from Wikipedia using Python

Here is a short blog I was asked to make about making a personal Wiki from Wikipedia. It shows the basic steps in text processing so I hope it will be useful for data scientists. It also requires some knowledge of MediaWiki setup on a web server, and some (not very advanced) knowledge of the Python programming language. It takes only several days to create this Wiki with Wikipedia articles if you know Python and basic ideas of data science. […]

Visually Explained: How Can Executives Grasp What Programming Is All About?

Quite often, non-technical executives have difficulties understanding what programming, on a very fundamental level, is all about. Because of that knowledge-gap, they tend to hire and overburden experienced data professionals with tasks which they are hopelessly overqualified for. Such as, for example, doing ad-hoc SQL queries on CRM data: “You’re the go-to-guy for all things data, and we need the results for the board meeting tomorrow.” That’s a quite humbling and frustrating experience for anyone who calls himself a Data […]

Training with historical data! Surely, you’re joking says the IoT asset that just got connected

By Priya Sharma – Sr. Data Scientist -IoT Analytics, SAS Institute Inc. Saurabh Mishra – Product Management, IoT, SAS Institute Inc. June 12, 2020 Description: Majority of AI approaches are based on the construct of training against historical data and then inferencing new data. While this is a sound and proven approach, a lot of IoT assets coming online don’t have historical data and we don’t necessarily have the time to wait. Modern Machine Learning methods can be employed to […]
