Data & Science with Glen Wright Colopy Philosophy of Data Science | S01 E04 | Values and Subjectivity in Data SciencePhilosophy of Data Science Series Session 1: Scientific Reasoning for Practical Data Science Episode 4: Values and Subjectivity in Data Science The Value-Free Ideal is a central tenant of objective science. But how do values, value judgements, and subjectivity leak into the practice of data science and statistics. To what extent is it desirable for science to be informed by values? Kevin Zollman (Carnegie Mellon University) covers the range of key ideas, from Heather E. Douglas to W.E.B. du Bois. Watch it on... YouTube: https://yo...

Data & Science with Glen Wright Colopy Philosophy of Data Science | S02 E01 | Round Table on Essential Reasoning Skills for Data SciencePhilosophy of Data Science Series Session 2: Essential Reasoning Skills for Data Science Episode 1: Round Table on Essential Reasoning Skills for Data Science Session 2 "Essential Reasoning Skills for Data Scientists" is kicking off with a roundtable discussion with Elina Vessonen (Finnish Institute for Health & Welfare), Joseph Wu (Brown University), and Huub Brouwer (Tilburg University & Utrecht University). One of the major challenges in data science is that we use three different modes of critical reasoning (deduction, induction, and abduction) on a daily (or even hourly) basis. It's important to un...

Data & Science with Glen Wright Colopy Philosophy of Data Science | S01 E03 | Communicating the Science in Data SciencePhilosophy of Data Science Series Session 1: Scientific Reasoning for Practical Data Science Episode 3: Communicating the Science in Data Science One of the biggest challenges in data scientists is to communicate why your work matters. Kathy Ensor (ASA 2022 President and Rice University’s Noah Harding Professor of Statistics) covers how to distinguish yourself as a professional by communicating both your scientific and technical value. (Hint: The same scientific reasoning that helps you do good work in data science will also help you critically assess “how” and “what” to communicate.) Watch it o...
