PyData Kraków #6 - Tech Talks - Data testing and reproducible ML

We would like to invite all of the Machine Learning and Data Science enthusiast from Kraków to our next meetup.
If you woul like to sponsor our meetup, or you would like to make a talk let us know at hello@pydatakrk.pl

Agenda:
18:45 Start
19:00 Adrianna Woltmann - A new dimension of testing on production. Cause in data automated processing we trust.
19:45 Short Break - with 🍕 pizza and 🍺 beer ‼️

20:45 ⚡Lightning Talks⚡

• [ENG] Adrianna Woltmann - A new dimension of testing on production. Cause in data automated processing we trust.

Let's bring testing on production to a whole new level!
Automated data calculation is a bumpy ride. Even when you are 100% confident about the correctness of your code and you wrote unit tests there may be still a bunch of situations when the data is not processed properly. It may be as simple as data duplication or as unpredicted as wrong values caused by a change in data sources that we do not own. These can lead to costly decisions based on false data which undermine trust in data as an input for the decision-making process.
So, how to know when output is not as good as we expected? In this presentation you will get your answers.
I will show you tests and checks that you can apply to your automated data processing which can save many decision-lives.

• [ENG] Mateusz Opala - Reproducible Machine Learning

Reproducibility is a cornerstone of scientific methods. Especially in production Machine Learning it’s crucial to ensure that hidden source of randomness is not a real reason for a model performance improvement. Although, reproducibility in building machine learning papers seems to be must-have, it’s still not a standard.

• [LANG] YOU! - ⚡Lightning talks⚡

Everyone loves lightning talks. If you want to show something, ideally related to procesing data in a ~5min short talk – here's your chance. We're not too strict on the timing, and you can either contact us beforehand or just come up with the idea during the meetup.

The meeting sponsors are:
