I'm giving a talk at an NYC meetup next Tue if anyone's interested
A cognitive psychologist's approach to data mining -- How I beat Netflix Cinematch with perl Synopsis: There's more to data mining than scikit-learn or mahout. Why does collaborative filtering work? Why does the ensemble approach work? Come to think of it, how do we think? This very ambitious (!) talk will try to ground predictive analyses of consumer behavior in what cognitive scientists have learned about human memory and cognition, and demonstrate through the Netflix prize project that the prediction of human behavior can benefit greatly from an understanding of human memory and cognition. http://axialcorps.com/tag/perl/ Would love to see some PDL people if you are in NYC! Best, Maggie
