  • Mentoring advice for a new year: 10 + 1 ideas

    At some point in your life you go from being a person who is mentored to one who also is a mentor to others. I’ve had many corporate roles, so I’m usually not at a loss to have at least something to suggest to a younger colleague. Here are some of the ideas and themes which I often discuss.

  • 5 mistakes to avoid when creating a mobile app

    Over the last several years, I’ve been deeply involved with IBM‘s Mobile efforts and now lead that technology area in IBM Research. In the last year we’ve held several hackathons and other events to get more and more people knowledgeable about how to create mobile apps. So with this experience and recent partnership engagements, let me offer five ways where I think people go wrong when creating an app.

  • Mathematical Markup Language (MathML) Version 3.0 2nd Edition

    W3C Recommendation 10 April 2014

    This specification defines the Mathematical Markup Language, or MathML. MathML is a markup language for describing mathematical notation and capturing both its structure and content. The goal of MathML is to enable mathematics to be served, received, and processed on the World Wide Web, just as HTML has enabled this functionality for text.

  • For the Love of Big Data: Approach to policy can determine outcomes

    Big Data is not just about the data. It is about the intended use and the location of that use. Privacy, security, and data ownership are all important considerations that must be factored in before we do the “science” with the data.

  • For the Love of Big Data: What is Big Data?

    Now that you have the information, what are you going to do with it? Will you just try to understand what is happening, as in descriptive analytics? How about predictive analytics to figure out what will happen if trends continue or if you modify conditions? Can you optimize the situation to get the result you want?

  • For the Love of Big Data: What issues can analytics present?

    Assume, to start, that data, metadata, and summarized data all have the same privacy restrictions. If I cannot move data out of an organization or a country, assume the same about the other two. From there, look to see if laws or contractual agreements soften this at all.

  • For the Love of Big Data: Why do data scientists want more data, rather than less?

    http://www.sutor.com/c/2014/03/for-the-love-of-big-data-why-want/

    The more you know, the more you can fit together the pieces into a coherent whole. Modeling a city, for example, needs a lot of different kinds of data, and this information is often interdependent and redundant.

  • My scale of cognitive computing

    I hosted a strategy session for my group at IBM Research and I used the following as a scale of how cognitive certain types of computing are.

  • What We Do When We Do Analytics Research

    In May of 2013 I was asked to contribute an article to ProVISION, an IBM magazine published in Japan for current and potential customers and clients. That piece was translated into Japanese and published at the end of July. Below is the original article I wrote in English describing some of the work we do in my group by the scientists, software engineers, postdocs and other staff in IBM’s Research labs around the world.

  • Survey Says! Big Data Can Help Build Smarter Workforces

    IBM Smarter Planet Blog

    Analysis bridges the gap between how employers make these decisions, and how employees respond to it. A field that has historically relied on psychology or “gut” instinct is becoming increasingly data-driven, turning hunches into substantiated assertions and helping make what was murky or unclear easier to see and process.
