To truly forecast where markets are headed you have to look beyond traditional finance. That’s why the data we analyze is broad, including structured data like the weather, semi structured-data like balancesheets, and unstructured data like newspapers, satellites, and free-form social data fields. Please join us for a data exploration lecture to see our approach to data exploration and analysis as we take a look at some interesting open source urban data. We will cover what questions to think about when analyzing large datasets, and we will walk you through a concrete example to illustrate the research process from idea generation, to hypothesis testing, to analyzing and visualizing meaningful patterns in the data.

Please note this is the first of three Data Exploration Lectures. If you cannot make this date, kindly reference our Campus Events page on our Careers website for additional dates/times.
