DETAILS

Continuing virtually, this month we have a talk about text preprocessing.

Thank you to EcoHealth Alliance for providing the Zoom link.

Conversations during the meetup are encouraged in the monthly-meetup-chat channel in the nyhackr slack: https://nyhackr.org/slack.html

Outside the meetups we have two events planned:

The 2021 R Conference in NY, September 8-10 as both in-person & virtual: https://rstats.ai/nyr/
The Bayes & Stan workshop, July 14-16, fully virtual: https://www.tickettailor.com/events/landeranalytics/505284

About the Talk:
Text constitutes an ever-growing part of the data available to us today. However, it is a non-trivial task to transform text, represented as long strings of characters, into numbers that we can use in our statistical & machine learning models. This talk will focus on the {textrecipes} package & its recent advancements in the realm of text preprocessing.

About Emil:
Emil Hvitfeldt is a clinical data analyst working in healthcare, & an adjunct professor at American University teaching statistical machine learning with tidymodels. He is also an open-source R developer & author of the {textrecipes} package.

The talk will begin at 7 PM EDT & we will start admitting people to the event shortly before. Since this is completely remote there will be no pizza but everyone is encouraged to have pizza individually.
