ClojuTRE, the Clojure Helsinki group, Emblica and Scicloj are inviting you to a meetup about data science in Clojure, at noon, on the day before ClojuTRE!

If you have some basic knowledge in Clojure and some curiosity about data science, then you should enjoy this meeting. If you do not know Clojure, but are still curious, then you are invited too!

We will have a series of short talks, and then a discussion.

If you wish to offer a lightning talk, that would be wonderful! Anything like an experiment you have done, an idea you have had, a library that you are writing/studying, would be great. Let us discuss this at the comments section.

Agenda

Short talks

Klaus Harbo: Clojupyter -- new features, issues and setting the scene for a discussion of its role in the Clojure data science ecosystem.
Teemu Heikkilä: Parsing documents by dreaming neural networks.
Daniel Slutsky: Interactive data analysis with state -- demonstrating an experimental workflow mixing the REPL and the browser.

Discussion - moderated by Toni Vanhala

Your hosts

Klaus Harbo is a self-employed consultant working as a technical advisor and project manager on large projects in the pharmaceutical industry where complexity constantly threatens to overwhelm resources. He is convinced that Functional Programming and languages like Clojure can help tame this complexity. Klaus has been using various kinds of Lisps since the 1990s, in recent years switching from Common Lisp to Clojure.

Teemu Heikkilä is a Helsinki based clojurian and data engineer working at Emblica in the field of machine learning and data engineering consulting. Teemu has worked with multiple large projects building data and analytics platforms, recommendation engines and machine learning based products for enterprise clients.

Daniel Slutsky is a Clojurian and mathematician working at Localize.city in the field of urban geography. He is part of the organizing team of Scicloj, a community of Clojurians interested in building the Clojure ecosystem for data science.

Toni Vanhala is a programmer at Metosin. He likes data, functional programming, and beer. Toni has worked with wearables, IoT, and health and wellbeing. His Ph.D. thesis presented how computers could evoke and sense emotions, for example, recognize reactions of social anxiety. He lives in Tampere, Finland, with a lovely wife and four daughters.
