Star Wars and the Art of Data Science

(view in My Videos)

 

SAS Principal Solutions Architect Mary Osborne loves Star Wars… and unstructured data. While the former is almost always cool and fun, the latter sometimes comes with some problems – specifically jargon, error, changes in language over time, and even geographic differences that can impact the meaning of words. Using three Star Wars movie scripts (A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi), Mary outlines the data science processes necessary to ingest, transform, analyze, and visualize unstructured data. In addition to gaining insight into working with unstructured data, you’ll learn fun Star Wars facts along the way, including what characters had the most lines, what locations are highlighted the most, what terms appear with the highest frequency and Mary’s take on the popular question: Who shot first? Han or Greedo?
