= Meeting 2019/08/17 =

== When? ==

Saturday, 17th August 2019, starting at around 14:00.

== Where? ==

[wiki:Superbalist Superbalist] have kindly offered to host us.

== What? ==

Gordon Inggs will give a talk titled "Making sense of a Large Organisation using spaCy and scikit-learn"

=== Abstract ===

Recently, I was asked to help understand which jobs at the City of Cape Town are particularly "data"-intensive. After several fruitless keyword searches, we turned to Data Science to help us with our search. Using the excellent spaCy library, within minutes we were able to embed the City jobs into a high dimensional space. This allowed us to not only perform relevance searches which defeated those pesky synonyms, but also set things up for some decent data mining. 

Come to the talk to find out all of the details, and maybe even help me help the City understand itself better.

== Venue ==

[wiki:Superbalist Superbalist] will provide beers, soft drinks and guest wifi!

Look out for the "go here" posters with the CTPUG logo on them directing you to the auditorium.

== Next Meeting ==

The next meeting will be on the [wiki:Meeting20190928 28th of September, 2019]
