5 sets of tools every lazy full-stack data scientist should use

This is a great list of tools and should give you a list of tools to try. Give Ian some applause on Medium and a follow.

The Ultimate Beginner’s Guide to Data Scraping, Cleaning, and Visualisation by @annebonnerdata via @TDataScience

How to take your model from unremarkable to amazing simply by cleaning and preprocessing your data.

Anne is right - if you get the underlying data right, the results and process to get to there is so much easier.  That is NOT to say you do something to skew the results, just that you make sure that it is not a case of garbage in/garbage ou.

WEBINAR: Machine Learning, Explainable AI, and Data Visualization 19 March 2020

Data Science Central Webinar Series Event

Machine Learning, Explainable AI, and Data Visualization Join us for this latest DSC Webinar on March 19th, 2020 The promise of artificial intelligence is that machines will help humans make better decisions. But we need to understand what machines are doing, to avoid mistakes and to understand our data. As organizations become more reliant on AI and machine learning models, how can humans be sure they are receiving trustworthy answers to the right questions? In this latest Data Science Central webinar, we will be discussing some general trends in AI before digging into what's been happening in explainable AI research, what are some of the readily available tools, and what’s coming next. We will also address integrating AI machine learning capabilities into Tableau, and that will give us an opportunity to deep dive into the recent developments at Tableau regarding the topic of XAI. Speaker: Richard Tibbetts, Principal Product Manager for AI -- Tableau Hosted by: Rafael Knuth, Contributing Editor -- Data Science Central   Title:  Machine Learning, Explainable AI, and Data Visualization Date:  Thursday, March 19th, 2020 Time:  9:00 AM - 10:00 AM PDT   Space is limited so please register early: Reserve your Webinar seat now

What AI still can’t do by Brian Bergstein via @techreview

Humans aren’t very good at understanding causation either.

I agree with Brian that we need to change our current AI thinking and combine a lot more sources of information using neural networks in order to get much better results.

Quantifying Independently Reproducible Machine Learning by @EdwardRaffML via @gradientpub

Through a “combination of masochism and stubbornness,” Edward Raff, chief scientist at Booz Allen, spent eight years trying to reproduce the results from 255 papers (with only 162 successful reproductions). This paper distils the 26 key features of reproducibility.

It's really important, that if you want others to believe your results, that they can analyse and reproduce them. It's a founding principle of all medical research and analysis that is presented to peers for review and that they are able to reproduce it. Yes, this paper is aimed at machine language, but I believe you can apply some of these for anything. Read it, bookmark it, and keep a copy on your noticeboard.
