Data Science Club

University of Rostock

A weekly meeting for anyone who wants to learn about and apply Data Science for real-world problem settings in a casual environment!

Next meeting: Monday,04/29/24 , 19:00 Uhr, Konrad-Zuse-Haus, Room 116. Bring your laptops! Please sign up here, so I can plan a little.
Pizza: Please bring 3 EUR for Pizza on Monday. It's so awesome that so many people came last time, so we will still get Pizza, but currently, I can't afford that much Pizza every week 😄
No prior knowledge or experience necessary!

History

WS23/24

  • 2024-03-04: New Members! Also looked into the Harmful Brain Activity Classification Challenge.
  • 2024-02-26: 3 days left for the Kaggle February challenge on obesity risk prediction! Spoiler: The “weight” feature seems to be quite informative.
  • 2024-02-19: Presentation about graph clustering, community detection and visualization.
  • 2024-02-12: Started the next Kaggle Playground Challenge on multi-class obesity detection.
  • 2024-02-05: João Saraiva gave an introduction to processing EEG data in Python.
  • 2024-01-15: Agreed upon also working on group projects in addition to the Kaggle challenges. Would be interesting to hear teams present their progress.
  • 2024-01-08: Ovarian Cancer Competition is closed - started looking for new competitions like this one.
  • 2023-12-11: Looked into Advent of Code Challenges. Also got familiar with pyvips to deal with huge Whole Slide Image PNG files.
  • 2023-11-13: Continued to work on the ML tutorials and the ovarian cancer challenge. Apparently, the host plans to add label map annotations, rendering training approaches more efficient.
  • 2023-11-06: First Meeting in WS23/24! Welcomed the new members and started to work on the Ovarian Cancer Subtype Classification Challenge.
