Just 3 days ago, I had the pleasure of watching the #rstudioconf2022 kick off.
I've been attending since 2018 and watching even longer than that.
And, I was just a normal spectator in the audience until this happened.
@topepos and @juliasilge's keynote showed all of the open source work their team has been working on to build the best machine learning ecosystem in R called #tidymodels.
And then they brought this slide up.
Max and Julia then proceeded to talk about how the community members have been working on expanding the ecosystem.
- Text Recipes for Text
- Censored for Survival Modeling
- Stacks for Ensembles
And then they announced me and my work on Modeltime for Time Series!!!
I had no clue this was going to happen.
Just a spectator in the back.
My friends to both sides went nuts. Hugs, high-fives, and all.
My students in my slack channel went even more nuts.
Throughout the rest of the week, I was on cloud-9.
My students that were at the conf introduced themselves.
Much of our discussions centered around Max & Julia's keynote and the exposure that modeltime got.
And all of this wouldn't be possible without the support of this company. Rstudio / posit.
So, I'm honored to be part of something bigger than just a programming language.
And if you'd like to learn more about what I do, I'll share a few links.
The first is my modeltime package for #timeseries.
This has been a 2-year+ passion project for building the premier time series forecasting system.
It now has multiple extensions including ensembles, resampling, deep learning, and more.
🚨BREAKING: New Python library for agentic data processing and ETL with AI
Introducing DocETL.
Here's what you need to know:
1. What is DocETL?
It's a tool for creating and executing data processing pipelines, especially suited for complex document processing tasks.
It offers:
- An interactive UI playground
- A Python package for running production pipelines
2. DocWrangler
DocWrangler helps you iteratively develop your pipeline:
- Experiment with different prompts and see results in real-time
- Build your pipeline step by step
- Export your finalized pipeline configuration for production use
These 7 statistical analysis concepts have helped me as an AI Data Scientist.
Let's go: 🧵
Step 1: Learn These Descriptive Statistics
Mean, median, mode, variance, standard deviation. Used to summarize data and spot variability. These are key for any data scientist to understand what’s in front of them in their data sets.
2. Learn Probability
Know your distributions (Normal, Binomial) & Bayes’ Theorem. The backbone of modeling and reasoning under uncertainty. Central Limit Theorem is a must too.
