Data Science for the National Big Data R and D Initiative, February 2, 2015: – NITRD Big Data Chronology (2012-present) and NITRD-GU Big Data Workshop: Dr. Moore agrees with IBM Watson that human curation is generally under appreciated and is the secret sauce in Big Data successes. – Wendy Wigen’s Slides: Summary of RFIs and Dr. Sudarsan Rachuri, NIST, Smart Manufacturing Systems Design and Analysis. – Calvin Andrus, CIA (Data Science: An Introduction) would "like to see more science in data science.“ – Jim Burke: Conference call-in and online slides were very useful. I appreciate the extra mile efforts, and great, informative conversations. 2
