What we’re about
This is a group for all those interested in extracting value from data, using advanced statistical, computational and analytical tools. At Data Science Sydney we discuss advanced machine learning, feature extraction, outlier detection, bayesian stats and deep learning methods. We are not focused on any specific technique or tool, but the full panoply of methods. If you believe that data is an undiscovered country to be explored for treasure, then this is the group for you.
We meet (roughly) once a month in the Sydney area to hear experts in the field present their perspective and experience using data science. We try to select topics and speakers that cater to a wide audience, from those just curious to find out what Data Science is about, to experts interested in the latest algorithms and hacks. We hope that this will bring together a diverse group of people at our meetups and we leave enough time before and after the presentations to get to know each other and do some good old networking.
Also, we are now collecting our presentations on our youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMNZrokQNSm2UQ_T5VfOLgg
Upcoming events (1)
See all- Vibe Coding Demo - Eugene DubossarskyActuaries Institue, Sydney
Eugene will present a demonstration of "vibe coding", which is the use of AI agent-enabled development tools to write code, develop tools and analyse data all just by prompting with text, and allowing the AI to iterate through code runs and improvements. The tool used will be Cursor, a common choice for vibe coding.
The demonstration will most likely focus on financial times series analysis : including forecasting using machine leanring, feature engineering, validation, and and, time permitting, even some trading system development, all with simple text prompts.
As with most of Eugene's presentations, the above is only a rough guide, so expect the unexpected.
Eugene Dubossarsky has been working in commerical AI and Data Science for over 26 years. He is the Principal Founder of Sydney AI and Data.
As a new ongoing feature of our events, we invite lighting talk presenters to share what they have been working on. Email proposals to said@presciient.com

We are as always grateful to our partners the Actuaries Institute for supporting the meetup as hosts.
