We will also examine the pipeline from experimentation to production models and the importance of keeping track of metrics and how we can automatise the process.

Maren Westermann - How to increase diversity in open source communities
2023-06-27 · 19:30
Maren Westermann
– scikit-learn team member
@ PyLadies Berlin
Today state of the art technology and scientific research strongly depend on open source libraries. The demographic of the contributors to these libraries is predominantly white and male. This situation creates problems not only for individual contributors outside of this demographic but also for open source projects such as loss of career opportunities and less robust technologies, respectively. In recent years there have been a number of various recommendations and initiatives to increase the participation in open source projects of groups who are underrepresented in this domain. While these efforts are valuable and much needed, contributor diversity remains a challenge in open source communities. This talk highlights the underlying problems and explores how we can overcome them. |
