Date: 30 May 2026 (Sat) Time: 15:30 - 18:00 \*HKT Coordinator: Ming Tou, Alex Au Light Refreshments will be available! This is a **workshop** for Python Data Cleaning. Please bring along your laptop with **Python3 installed with enough battery**! *Winners will get a small prize as an accomplishment **in the next meetup**.* **Due to the university entrance policy, we are currently closed for new university QR code entrance registration. Please feel free to join us by registering yourself under the university entrance counter!** ***Mind the Data Gap*** **This model will be delayed due to: missing values, outliers, and delimiter congestion.** In this hands-on HKPUG workshop, we are turning a Python data cleaning exercise into a gamified team sprint. You will work with a **synthetic Hong Kong-inspired transport dataset**. The data is messy on purpose: missing values, weird outliers, inconsistent categories, URL-encoded station names, confusing delimiters, and fields that look useless until you extract the hidden signal. Your mission is simple: **Clean the data. Extract better features. Run the scorer. Beat the model.** You do not need to tune the model. You need to **rescue the data**. ***How the Challenge Works*** Teams will write a Python data transformation script to clean and enrich the dataset. Our scoring pipeline will then: 1. Run your transformation on the training and test data 2. Remove any label / target leakage columns 3. Train a fixed Gradient Boosting model 4. Evaluate the model using proxy metrics such as F1 and ROC-AUC 5. Convert the result into a data cleaning score This is not meant to be a perfect data quality metric. It is an accessible proxy: if your **cleaning** and **feature extraction** help the **model perform better**, your team gets a better score. **Capacity:** 60 (Team of 4) **Venue Info:** City University of Hong Kong, Kowloon Tong (Exact Location TBC) **Rundown:** **30th May** **15:30 – 15:40** Opening Remarks, Team Formation & GitHub Setup **15:40 – 15:55** Briefing: Data Traffic Report, Challenge Rules & Scoring Pipeline **15:55 – 16:20** Demo: Messy Dataset, Data Cleaning Strategy & `transform.py` **16:20 – 17:10** Team Sprint Part 1: Missing Values, Outliers & Category Cleanup **17:10 – 18:00** Team Sprint Part 2: Feature Extraction, Hidden Signals & Scoring Iterations **18:00 -** Networking outside City University **13th June** **\- 23:59** Winner Team Announcement **Audience pre-requisite:** * **Hardware:** **MUST** bring a laptop with Python 3 installed and a code editor (VS Code, PyCharm, etc.). * **Skills:** Recommended having basic to intermediate-level knowledge of Python (handling JSON, using the `requests` library, and writing basic `if/else/while` loops). **How to join?** 1.

**The Behavior Gap: Where Products Win or Lose** Teams today have more data than ever, and yet many still struggle to understand why customers adopt, engage with, or abandon their products. Teams sprint, ship faster, and chase more signals… all while metrics stall and confidence drops. The missing piece isn’t more data. It’s often the behavioral insight between the metrics, explaining why the numbers move in the first place. Dashboards can tell you what customers did, but understanding why they did it (and how to influence what they do next) requires a deeper blend of insights. This session is about closing that gap. Drawing from real-world experience designing and scaling products as [ZoCo Design](https://zocodesign.com/)’s CEO, [Lacey](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) will share how to cut through the noise and identify the insights that actually change behavior—moving people, and moving metrics. You’ll learn: * Why understanding customer behavior is a quant and qual challenge * How to spot the signals that actually predict behavior change * Where AI accelerates insight, and where it creates distraction * How to get meaningfully closer to customers, without adding more tools This talk reframes how to evaluate performance and identify what levers actually improve it, helping your team to make smarter bets with greater confidence. Every meaningful outcome is driven by behavior change. And when you know how to design for behavior, you stop guessing, and start building things that work. **About Our Speaker** [Lacey Picazo](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) is the Founder and CEO of ZoCo, a healthcare product studio that turns complex, high-stakes ideas into products that drive real-world adoption. She partners with healthcare organizations to uncover critical care delivery insights, focus product strategy through behavior design, and build solutions that patients and providers actually use.
