Stylumia Talks with World’s Top Data Scientist Abhishek Thakur | Stylumia

Abhishek is the world’s first 4x Kaggle Grandmaster and currently works as Chief Data Scientist for boost.ai in Norway. In addition, he holds a Master’s degree in Computer Science from the University of Bonn. During his free time, he likes to take part in machine learning competitions. He also creates YouTube videos related to applied machine learning. Currently, he’s writing a book titled: Approaching (Almost) Any Machine Learning Problem.

The key insights from the talk include how data can be a lifesaver during these times. Certainly, data can help allocate precious resources, for instance, emergency medical equipment. Abhishek talks about how virtual assistants can help consumers connect with banks and businesses. Being a data scientist himself he recommends other data scientists build short-term models to take care of this situation. In addition, he suggests proper validation mechanisms to minimize bias.

In conclusion, Abhishek wants the data scientists to also be experimentative, open to alternate data, and stay curious.

Thank you for thinking with Stylumia.
