<p>Hey everyone!<br>Time for another meetup in Porto. Let's meet to discuss Data Science and complain about the bad weather while having some beers :)<br><br>This time we will have two new speakers talking about deploying AI systems in production-ready and critical environments.<br><br>Luís Matias is coming all the way from NEC Laboratories Europe (Heidelberg, Germany) to speak about the challenges of deploying AI-based software in domains like transportation and logistics.<br><br>We will also have Tiago Baptista from Critical Software presenting how they deploy AI and Machine Learning systems in critical projects. The company provides systems and software services for safety, mission and business-critical applications ranging from aerospace, defense and security, government, finance and many others domains.<br><br>The 23rd meetup of Data Science Portugal (<a href="https://www.facebook.com/datascienceportugal" target="__blank" title="https://www.facebook.com/datascienceportugal" class="link">https://www.facebook.com/datascienceportugal</a>) is going to take place on Thursday, 8th March, 2018 around 18h30, at UPTEC - main auditorium - Allen 455, R. Alfredo Allen, Porto.<br><br>This meetup will be sponsored by Critical Software.<br><br>=== SCHEDULE ===<br>The preliminary agenda for the meetup is the following:<br><br>• 18:30-19:00: Welcome and get together.<br>• 19:00-19:30: Talk 1: “Data Science NOW! (and other not so deep thoughts about AI)”, presented by Luis Matias , NEC Laboratories Europe (Heidelberg, Germany)<br>• 19:40-19:45: Group photo.<br>• 19:45-20:15: Networking / Coffee Break.<br>• 20:15-20:45: Talk 2: AI&amp;ML @Critical Software: A Guided Tour, presented by Tiago Baptista , Critical Software<br>• 20:50: Closing, hanging out and some beers<br>• 21:00: Dinner is optional but it might be an excellent opportunity for networking. You can register on the following list.<br><br>Dinner<br><a href="https://doodle.com/poll/5rkew4nc43zrxqp8" target="__blank" title="https://doodle.com/poll/5rkew4nc43zrxqp8" class="link">https://doodle.com/poll/5rkew4nc43zrxqp8</a><br><br>Do you want to be a sponsor in future meetups?

(and other not so deep thoughts about AI)”, Luis Matias from NEC Laboratories Europe (Heidelberg, Germany)<br><br>In this presentation, we approach the issue of defining Data Science<br>as the ability to transform raw data into information in an (almost…)<br>automated fashion. We highlight the different stages that may precede<br>the deployment of AI-systems in production-ready environments that<br>actually enclose a good value proposition by using concrete examples<br>of accomplished projects from Transport and Logistics (with open<br>discussion for other verticals). We will also highlight the power of underestimated DS stages nowadays such as data wrangling, exploratory data analysis, visualization and interpretability on providing<br>insights on how valuable your data and models are for your business. I<br>hope to minimize the amount of throws of rotten tomatoes by making the<br>audience laugh now and then with not so deep stuff.<br><br>Short Bio: Dr. Luis Moreira-Matias received his Ms.c. degree in Informatics<br>Engineering and Ph.d. degree in Computer Science (major in Machine<br>Learning) from the University of Porto, in 2009 and 2015,<br>respectively. Luis served in the Program Committee and/or as invited<br>reviewer of multiple high-impact research venues such as KDD, AAAI,<br>IEEE TKDE, ESWA, ECML/PKDD and KAIS, among others. Moreover, he<br>encloses a successful track record of real-world deployment of<br>AI-based software products across EMEA and APAC. Currently, he is Senior Researcher at NEC Laboratories Europe (Heidelberg, Germany), where he is fortunate to lead R&amp;D of AI-based software for Transport, Retail and Fintech industries. He was fortunate to be invited to give keynotes around the globe, ranging locations fro
