Explaining the Basics of Mean Field Variational Approximation for Statisticians /slideshow/variational-method/42615820 variationalmethod-141211124938-conversion-gate01
Explaining "Explaining Variational Approximation" by JT Ormerod and MP Wand (2010). I wanted to learn variational methods since its speed for Bayesian inference is just so fast! Here's my condensed version of the paper without the cool examples...you should really try the examples out if you want a better understanding of this method! This presentation assumes some knowledge or experience with Bayesian methods.]]>

What is bayesian statistics and how is it different? /slideshow/what-isbayesianstatistics/42459635 what-is-bayesian-statistics-141208015302-conversion-gate01
Gentle intro to Bayesian Statistics and how it's different from classical frequentist statistics. Assumes you have basic statistical knowledge. Why "Am I pregnant?" is a question more suitable for Bayesian techniques and not actually suitable at all for Frequentist techniques!]]>

The Key to Blind Dates - Data Snooping /slideshow/data-snooping/33230174 xlntcartoonmultiplehyptestingscript-140407113801-phpapp01
Overall, if you ask enough questions about the data, measure enough metrics, and/or fit enough models, you'll likely find one that moves in your favor. Data snooping is heavily tied to the problem of multiple testing which is elegantly demonstrated through this xkcd cartoon. There is unfortunately no golden rule to prevent data snooping given the pressure to deploy new features, discover new results, and publish interesting findings. Asking product managers/scientists to formulate hypotheses before performing the analysis can be quite difficult. This is where a data scientist should step in and help iterate between the original hypotheses and data. How would you deal with data snooping?]]>
