DEADLINE APPROACHING! 🌟 Are you headed to EDM 2024 in Atlanta? Consider submitting to the workshop on Causal Inference in Educational Data Mining (EDM) research! Join SEERNet members Neil Heffernan and Avery Closser as they explore the critical role of causality in enhancing student learning through intelligent tutoring systems, educational games, MOOCs, and more. In today's digital learning landscape, understanding causality goes beyond predicting learner behaviors to unraveling the underlying factors impacting educational outcomes. The workshop aims to stimulate discussion and share insights on examining causality within EDM contexts and leveraging EDM to support causal inference methodologies. 📝 Call for Papers/Presentations: To participate, please submit on topics including A/B testing, Bayesian networks, analyzing data from randomized experiments, multi-armed bandits, causal mechanism analysis, and more. Whether you're presenting completed work or exploring open problems in the field, you are invited to contribute to the conversation! - Submission Deadline: June 10, 2024 [Link: https://bit.ly/3WfbSC2]

🔬 New Hypothesis Test in EngineRoom! 🔬 We’re excited to launch the Chi-Square Test of Association, a powerful new tool for testing the independence of two categorical variables. Whether you’re working with product defects, quality checks, or survey data, this tool provides valuable insights into the relationships between categorical variables in your dataset. This tool analyzes count data rather than measurement data and helps uncover meaningful relationships between two categories. EngineRoom organizes the information into a contingency table and calls out in the conclusion whether those categories are independent or not. Are you curious to explore this new feature? Check it out! #hypothesistesting #chisquaretest #dataanalysis #qualityprofessionals

🧠 Survey Programming Puzzle Challenge! Are You Up for It? 🧠 Survey programming isn’t just about creating questions—it’s about building seamless experiences for respondents while ensuring data accuracy. If you're a survey programmer, here's a fun challenge to test your skills: Imagine this scenario: Participants aged 18-65 can proceed to the main survey. Those over 50 receive an additional 3 health-related questions. The order of questions in Section B must be randomized for each participant. The survey closes at 500 responses, but no more than 30% should come from a single country. Can you: Program the age filter to block invalid entries. Randomize Section B questions for fairness. Track quotas to ensure balanced responses across countries. Show off your problem-solving skills and think like a pro! 💡 Let’s hear how YOU would tackle this. 👇 #SurveyProgramming #MarketResearch #DataQuality #LogicChallenge #ProblemSolving #SurveyDesign #DataCollection #TechInResearch

One of the services I provide is code translation -- so if you have legacy code in SAS or SPSS (or likely other programs), I would be able to convert those into useable python (or R) open source programs. Often my services to do the translation are less than a yearly license for SAS or SPSS. There are scenarios when using SAS or SPSS make sense (they are nice for reporting servers with out of memory data is one example), but they are overkill for many departments. https://lnkd.in/gn9Hy3WF #opensource #crimeanalysis #SAS #SPSS #python

We're thrilled to have Cyrus Nouroozi (DSPy key contributor) join us tomorrow to discuss a recent DSPy paper that introduces LM Assertions, a programming construct for expressing computational constraints that LMs should satisfy. Register 👉 https://lnkd.in/dmEY6C8F More about the paper... Chaining language model (LM) calls as composable modules is fueling a new way of programming, but ensuring LMs adhere to important constraints requires heuristic “prompt engineering.” The researchers integrated their constructs into the recent DSPy programming model for LMs and present new strategies that allow DSPy to compile programs with LM Assertions into more reliable and accurate systems. They also propose strategies to use assertions at inference time for automatic self-refinement with LMs. They reported on four diverse case studies for text generation and found that LM Assertions improve not only compliance with imposed rules but also downstream task performance, passing constraints up to 164% more often and generating up to 37% more higher-quality responses. Dat Daryl Ngo and Sally-Ann DeLucia will lead the discussion. Read the paper here: https://lnkd.in/gaP-mH3a
