Presented by KNIME
This learnathon is a mix between a hackathon and a workshop. It's like a workshop because we'll learn more about the data science cycle: data access, data blending, data preparation, model training, optimization, testing, and deployment. It's like a hackathon because we'll work in groups to hack a workflow-based solution to guided exercises.
The tool of choice is the open-source, GUI-driven KNIME Analytics Platform. Because KNIME is open, it offers great integrations with an IDE environment for R, Python; SQL, and Spark.We'll start with an introduction to KNIME Analytics Platform, followed by a short presentation about the data science cycle. After this presentation we split into three groups. Each group focuses on one of the three aspects of the data science cycle.Three zoom breakout rooms will be activated for this purpose. You go into the room for the group you sign up for (below) to attend the specific tutorial and exercises.There will be a KNIME data scientist in each breakout room to help you while you work on the exercises.
Group 1 - Working on the raw data. Data access and data preparation.
Group 2 - Machine Learning. Which model shall I use? Which parameters?
Group 3 - I have a great model. Now what? The model deployment phase.
Dr. Satoru Hayasaka was trained in statistical analysis of various types of biomedical data. Since his doctoral training, he has taught several courses on data analysis geared toward non-experts and beginners. In recent years, he taught introductory machine learning courses to graduate students from different disciplines. Recently he joined KNIME as part of the evangelism team, and he continues teaching machine learning and data mining using KNIME Analytics Platform.
Wali Khan is a Solution Engineer at KNIME based out of Austin, Texas. His main focus is to help people operationalize their Machine Learning Models and analytics pipelines. Before KNIME Wali worked as a consultant at Oracle, holds a Masters Degree in Biomedical Engineering from University of Texas Arlington, and a Chemistry Degree from Texas A&M University.
Corey Weisinger is a Data Scientist with KNIME in Austin Texas. He studied Mathematics at Michigan State University focusing on Actuarial Techniques and Functional Analysis. Before coming to work for KNIME he worked as an Analytics Consultant for the Auto Industry in Detroit Michigan. He currently focuses on Signal Processing and Numeric Prediction techniques and is the Author of the Alteryx to KNIME guidebook.

Overview
In addition to measuring the global impact of COVID-19 pandemic by number of cases and mortalities, there are various other measures ogf how COVID has impacted society e.g. socially, mentally, and in how it signiifocantly disrupted our normal way of living. Manyof these effects have been documented via social media as many of us have used it to share our emotions and experiences on these platforms throughout the duration of the pandemic.
While such impacts can’t be measured via typical numberical or statistical methods, Natural Language Processing gives us power to analyze social media content and measure effects of what we are writing on social media. Such analysis provides a rather detailed perspective as to what people are mostly worried about, as well as how sentiment have changed over a period of time. What are the major concerns or top talked topics during pandemic giving us a sense of overall mood of community?
In this detailed hands-on case study, we will be analyzing social media content such as Facebook and Twitter and will try to understand impact of COVID on human life in terms of social, financial, and mental impacts. We will learn about how to collect specific data from Twitter or Facebook comments. Participants will learn how to clean and process text and prepare social media posts for analysis. We will take a deep dive into some of most common and interesting topics such as sentiment analysis, topic detection, classification. Finally we will use power of visualizations to generate charts to understand impact of COVID from various aspects.
We will learn following modules:
- Data collection such as Facebook comments and twitter data for a specific topic such as COVID
- Data cleanup and analyzing. As text is always messy
- EDA: Explaroatry data analysis by generating various charts that can make sense
- Sentiment analysis to classify emotions of people
Learning Outcomes
- Hands on project understanding
- Data Collection such as web scraping
- Data Analysis
- Business insights such as taking decision as per impacts
Participants Description
- Academics -Learn data collection and development
- Graduate Students - Good project for resume
- Undergraduate Students - Good project for resume
- Data Science Professionals - Learn real life project
- Subject Matter Professionals (Health Data Science, Marketing Professionals, etc.) - Covid impact from society perspective
Highlights
- Work on real life problem with real life dataset
- Learn how to collect dataset from social media platforms
- Basics of Natural Language processing
- Hands on exposure to develop end-to-end NLP project including deploying, API development, UI integration etc.
- Find out impacts on COVID using real life data on real life humankind
