Bayesian data analysis allows us to quantify the certainty surrounding our conclusions. I’ve previously talked about how traditional null hypothesis significance testing (NHST) and its related p-values is tied to concerns about reproducible science. One of the ways that Bayesian data analysis improves upon NHST is by asking the right…

Going through graduate school in the sciences, you learn a lot outside of your core research area. You learn–or hopefully you learn–supporting skills like experimental design, producing effective visualizations, and writing for academic audiences. And one skill that most of us learn along the way is how to go about…

Not all types of unsupervised learning algorithms have the same level of performance in dynamic environments. Algorithms with certain characteristics are more robust to changes in the data being produced.
