    Keerti Agrawal and Aarshay Jain - Data Science in the Industry

    In E03 of Outlier Detected, we are joined by not one, but two exceptional alumni of the class of 2017: Keerti Agrawal and Aarshay Jain. Often, novices in Data Science are overwhelmed with the diverging roles, leaving them perplexed while making a career decision. Fortunately, our guests are experienced  professionals who have mastered their roles. Aarshay and Keerti will contrast the roles of Data Scientist and Machine Learning Engineer, talk about their experience at Spotify, and discuss their motivations for founding a Data Science consulting firm in India called "Aagmann.ai". Tune in now to learn about all this and more!

    Dr. Emily L. Spratt - Art and AI Pioneer

    In E02 of Outlier Detected, we are joined by polymath Dr. Emily L. Spratt, fellow in the Data Science Institute at Columbia University. Notable for her doubly pioneering research in art history and data science, Dr. Spratt offers a critical approach to the ethics of emerging technologies for images and the philosophical foundations of data science. Her groundbreaking work on art and AI demonstrates how the humanities play an indispensable yet often-overlooked role in data science. In this interview, Dr. Spratt shares her journey on how she came to investigate Byzantine icons with AI, build algorithms to study French gastronomy, and theoretically approach the issue of copyright and digital image protections in the context of AI- and blockchain- based technologies. Dr. Spratt is also a strategist on the seemingly radical applications of data science for the international art market, the creative tech sector, and for museums, cultural heritage management, and even the environment.
