Data Science Digest (July 2019)

Welcome all!

Summer is in full swing, and if you plan to be in Odessa on July 5th, I invite you to the ODS mitap and data bar , which is organized by the Odessa ODS.ai team. I remind you that the digest has its own Telegram channel and pages on social networks ( Facebook , Twitter , LinkedIn , Medium ), where I publish links to useful materials daily. Join now!

In the meantime, I offer a fresh selection of materials under the cut.
