Linear Digressions

Let’s talk money. As a “hot” career right now, data science can pay pretty well. But for an individual person matched with a specific job or industry, how much should someone expect to make? 

Since Katie was on the job market lately, this was something she’s been researching, and it turns out that data science itself (in particular linear regressions) has some answers. 

In this episode, we go through a survey of hundreds of data scientists, who report on their job duties, industry, skills, education, location, etc. along with their salaries, and then talk about how this data was fed into a linear regression so that you (yes, you!) can use the patterns in the data to know what kind of salary any particular kind of data scientist might expect.

Genepod: July 2016 - The real father of Precision Medicine

What does it take to build a data-driven culture? In this O’Reilly Podcast episode, I pose that question to Ashish Thusoo, founder of Qubole. With his co-founder Joydeep Sen Sarma, Thusoo built a self-service data infrastructure at Facebook beginning in 2007. That infrastructure transformed Facebook’s culture and became part of practically every product decision that the company made.

Building a Data-Driven Culture

In this episode I spoke with Michael Franklin, co-director of UC Berkeley’s AMPLab and chair of the Department of Computer Science at the University of Chicago. AMPLab is well-known in the data community for having originated Apache Spark, Alluxio (formerly Tachyon) and many other open source tools. Today marks the start of a two-day symposium commemorating the end of AMPLab, and we took the opportunity to reflect on its impressive accomplishments.

Hear an interview with Geisinger Health System's Jennifer Wagner, who discusses her recent publication in Genetics in Medicine which addresses how to get the most out of the Precision Medicine Initiative.

Genepod - December 2016 - Making Precision Medicine Work

In this episode, I sit down with Brad Knox, founder and CEO of Emoters, a startup building a product called bots_alive—animal-like robots that have a strong illusion of life. We chat about the approach the company is taking, why robots or agents that pass themselves off as human without any transparency should be illegal, and some challenges and applications of reinforcement learning and interactive machine learning.

Brad Knox on Creating a Strong Illusion of Life

In this episode I spoke with Ion Stoica, cofounder and chairman of Databricks. Stoica is also a professor of computer science at UC Berkeley, where he serves as director of the new RISE Lab (the successor to AMPLab). Fresh off the incredible success of AMPLab, RISE seeks to build tools and platforms that enable sophisticated real-time applications on live data, while maintaining strong security. As Stoica points out, users will increasingly expect security guarantees on systems that rely on online machine learning algorithms that make use of personal or proprietary data.

Data is Only as Valuable as the Decisions it Enables

Today we are delighted to bring you an interview with Matt Might, computer scientist and medical researcher extraordinaire and architect of President Obama's Precision Medicine Initiative.  As the Obama Administration winds down, we're talking with Matt about the goals and accomplishments of precision medicine (and related projects like the Cancer Moonshot) and what he foresees as the future marriage of data and medicine.  Many thanks to Matt, our friends over at Partially Derivative (hi, Jonathon!) and the White House for arranging this opportunity to chat.  Enjoy!

Data and the Future of Medicine : Interview with Precision Medicine Initiative researcher Matt Might

If one machine learning model is good, are two models better?  In a lot of cases, the answer is yes.  If you build many ok models, and then bring them all together and use them in combination to make your final predictions, you've just created an ensemble model.  It feels a little bit like cheating, like you just got something for nothing, but the results don't like: algorithms like Random Forests and Gradient Boosting Trees (two types of ensemble algorithms) are some of the strongest out-of-the-box algorithms for classic supervised classification problems.  What makes a Random Forest random, and what does it mean to gradient boost a tree?  Have a listen and find out.

Ensemble Algorithms

In this episode of the SuperDataScience Podcast, I chat with Founder and Co-CEO of Experfy, Harpreet Singh. You will be able to learn and assess on Experfy, get to discuss data science application case studies and know the secret to data science success.

The Challenges and Opportunities of Healthcare Data - with Remedy Health

Today, a dispatch on what can go wrong when machine learning hype outpaces reality: a high-profile partnership between IBM Watson and MD Anderson Cancer Center has recently hit the rocks as it turns out to be tougher than expected to cure cancer with artificial intelligence.  There are enough conflicting accounts in the media to make it tough to say exactly went wrong, but it's a good chance to remind ourselves that even in a post-AI world, hard problems remain hard.

Curing Cancer with Machine Learning is Super Hard

It's been a busy hurricane season in the Southeastern United States, with millions of people making life-or-death decisions based on the forecasts around where the hurricanes will hit and with what intensity.  In this episode we'll deconstruct those models, talking about the different types of models, the theory behind them, and how they've evolved through the years.

Hurricane Forecasting

This month, Assistant Professor of Biostatistics Brian Healy, PhD gives insight into the future of clinical trials and model building in biostatistics. At the crux of study design innovation and new prediction model building, researchers should take advantage of this unique time in research and technology to do their best work.

Big Data and Precision Medicine: Improving Studies and Results

Open source software is ubiquitous throughout data science, and enables the work of nearly every data scientist in some way or another. Open source projects, however, are disproportionately maintained by a small number of individuals, some of whom are institutionally supported, but many of whom do this maintenance on a purely volunteer basis. The health of the data science ecosystem depends on the support of open source projects, on an individual and institutional level.

The Data Science Open Source Ecosystem

This is a re-release of an episode that originally ran in October 2019.

If you’re trying to manage a project that serves up analytics data for a few very distinct uses, you’d be wise to consider having custom solutions for each use case that are optimized for the needs and constraints of that use cases. You also wouldn’t be YouTube, which found themselves with this problem (gigantic data needs and several very different use cases of what they needed to do with that data) and went a different way: they built one analytics data system to serve them all. Procella, the system they built, is the topic of our episode today: by deconstructing the system, we dig into the four motivating uses of this system, the complexity they had to introduce to service all four uses simultaneously, and the impressive engineering that has to go into building something that “just works.”

Procella: YouTube's super-system for analytics data storage

A few weeks ago, we put out a call for data scientists interested in issues of race and racism, or people studying how those topics can be studied with data science methods, should get in touch to come talk to our audience about their work. This week we’re excited to bring on Todd Hendricks, Bay Area data scientist and a volunteer who reached out to tell us about his studies with the Stanford Open Policing dataset.

A Data Science Take on Open Policing Data

The data science and artificial intelligence community has made amazing strides in the past few years to algorithmically automate portions of the healthcare process. This episode looks at two computer vision algorithms, one that diagnoses diabetic retinopathy and another that classifies liver cancer, and asks the question—are patients now getting better care, and achieving better outcomes, with these algorithms in the mix? The answer isn’t no, exactly, but it’s not a resounding yes, because these algorithms interact with a very complex system (the healthcare system) and other shortcomings of that system are proving hard to automate away. Getting a faster diagnosis from an image might not be an improvement if the image is now harder to capture (because of strict data quality requirements associated with the algorithm that wouldn’t stop a human doing the same job). Likewise, an algorithm getting a prediction mostly correct might not be an overall benefit if it introduces more dramatic failures when the prediction happens to be wrong. For every data scientist whose work is deployed into some kind of product, and is being used to solve real-world problems, these papers underscore how important and difficult it is to consider all the context around those problems.

A Reality Check on AI-Driven Medical Assistants

All good things must come to an end, including this podcast. This is the last episode we plan to release, and it doesn’t cover data science—it’s mostly reminiscing, thanking our wonderful audience (that’s you!), and marveling at how this thing that started out as a side project grew into a huge part of our lives for over 5 years.

It’s been a ride, and a real pleasure and privilege to talk to you each week. Thanks, best wishes, and good night!
