Creating and maintaining open-source libraries - Vincent Warmerdam

About the event

Outline:

• ​​Working in open source
• ​Maintaining scikit-learn and other open-source projects

​​ About the speaker:

Vincent works as a Research Advocate at Rasa where he collaborates with the research team to explain and understand conversational systems better. One of his activities is maintaining a youtube playlist that explains NLP algorithms over at “the algorithm whiteboard”. Before, he was a consultant working on production algorithms for a large range of companies.

​Vincent is a firm believer in open source and certainly doesn’t mind to evangelise from time to time. He has a blog about the slightly less obvious aspects in the world of data science over at https://koaning.io. He’s also working on a project that tries to help people get started over at https://calmcode.io.
