Experiments, Parameters and Models At Youtube, the relationships between system parameters and metrics often seem simple — straight-line models sometimes fit our data well. To find optimal values of two parameters experimentally, the obvious strategy would be to experiment with and update them in separate, sequential stages.

Edge solutions keep large and growing data sets close to where the data is generated, and faster networks facilitate data transfer from edge systems to the cloud. HPE CEO Antonio Neri put it this way in his keynote at the annual HPE Discover conference: ‘We are edge-centric, cloud-enabled and data-driven.”.

By IVAN DIAZ & JOSEPH KELLY Determining the causal effects of an action—which we call treatment—on an outcome of interest is at the heart of many data analysis efforts. In an ideal world, experimentation through randomization of the treatment assignment allows the identification and consistent estimation of causal effects.

Paco Nathan ‘s latest article covers program synthesis, AutoPandas, model-driven data queries, and more. In other words, using metadata about data science work to generate code. In this case, code gets generated for data preparation, where so much of the “time and labor” in data science work is concentrated.
