Day 1: Lightning Talks
summary
A rapid sequence of concrete demos and claims: a tour of the NumFOCUS project directory and the difference between sponsored vs affiliated projects; a model‑explainability demo using the alibi library with anchors with 92% precision and counterfactuals on Income, Boston Housing, FashionMNIST and ImageNet; spatial crime mapping built with GeoPandas, Plotly and Mapbox; interactive dashboards via Voila, ipywidgets and bqplot; reproducible dev flow using pre‑commit hooks, black and isort; and an elections dataset package plus a ML entry that reduced error from 4% to 0.02%.
