In the 1950 and 1960s, social and behavioral sciences were at the cutting edge of innovation. Scientific techniques and quantitative analyses were being applied to some of the most pressing social problems. The thinking was “If NASA can put men in space, why can’t we use these techniques to solve the problems of housing discrimination
Originally published in Big Think When you harness the power and potential of machine learning, there are also some drastic downsides that you’ve got to manage. Deploying machine learning, you face the risk that it be discriminatory,...
Models predicting the potential spread of the COVID-19 pandemic have become a fixture of American life. Many of these models use typical demographic data, coupled with underlying medical conditions, infection rates, etc. Indeed, the spread of this...
My new course series on Coursera, Machine Learning for Everyone (free access), fulfills two different kinds of unmet learner needs. It’s a conceptually-complete, end-to-end course series – its three courses amount to the equivalent of a...
Segmentation is a hot word these days, and it should be. No matter your business, one direct way to increase revenue is better communication with sales prospects. And better communication is a direct result of the granularity...
This transcript comes from the online course, Machine Learning Leadership and Practice – End-to-End Mastery. In 57 words, here’s why machine learning’s important: Business needs prediction. Prediction requires machine learning. And machine learning depends on data....
IoT technologies increase the accessibility to patient data, enable real-time decision making, and offer ease and efficiency through automation. IoT-powered software solutions for the healthcare sector are shifting the focus from digitalization to intelligence....
From Coursera’s “Machine learning for Everyone” My new course series on Coursera, Machine Learning for Everyone (free access), is for any learner who wishes to participate in the business deployment of machine learning, no matter whether...
Are we really at a new stage of so-called industrial development much like how the car replaced the horse and buggy as the main mode of consumer transportation? This would appear to be the case by some...
Of all the analytic tools that are available to the researcher, perhaps cross tabulations are the most common. A crosstab is nothing more than a table showing the relationship between two or more variables. Where the table only shows...
