Feed: What's New. Author: Erin Gengo, Robert Bloom. As we reimagined data management across all of Tableau, we identified five pillars for the  migration process framework that dovetailed well with our Snowflake selection criteria, and would thereby increase trust and confidence in the data that everyone uses.

Feed: Featured Blog Posts - Data Science Central. Author: Vincent Granville. The model-free, data-driven technique discussed here is so basic that it can easily be implemented in Excel, and we actually provide an Excel implementation. It is surprising that this technique does not pre-date standard linear regression, and is rarely if ever used by statisticians and data scientists. It is related to kriging and nearest neighbor interpolation, and apparently first mentioned in 1965 by Harvard scientists working on GIS (geographic information systems). It was referred back then as Shepard's method or inverse distance weighting, and used for multivariate interpolation on ... Read More
