Hi All,

I'd like to thank everyone for joining Data Science KC and hope to see many of you in a couple weeks at the Meet and Greet!

Data Science KC is geared towards helping data scientists grow professionally and allow non data scientists to learn about what data scientists do. With that in mind, I'd like to get a feel for what group members are interested in.

So please take a moment and respond to this email or post to the discussion board. Let me know what topics you are interested in. Let me know what would help you grow professionally or just be a cool topic to learn about. Also, if you would be interested in presenting on a topic please let me know. I'd love to get two people to give 10-20 minute presentations for an August meeting!

Here are some ideas for presentations:

- Using "insert language/software here" for machine learning/statistical analysis

- Data mining and visualization techniques for "insert industry here"

- A tutorial on using R

- Natural Language Processing with Python

- How to get a job in Data Science

- Tips and tricks for implementing predictive modeling in you organization

- Using API's to automate data collection from the Web

 

Also, if you have a particular speaker that you would like to hear then pass along their name (e.g. http://www.cs.columbia.edu/~evs/http://www.tomdavenport.com/) . I'll be happy to reach out them.
