Data Exploration with Kaggle Scripts, Data Science, Data Exploratory Courses

This might be interesting at a surface level.  I haven't evaluated yet.

Data Exploration with Kaggle Scripts course.


Again more surface level stuff.

Intermediate Python for Data Science course.


This actually might have more substance, it is taught by a JHU professor.

Coursera course on Exploratory Data Analysis

Flask

Flask...

"Flask is a microframework for Python based on Werkzeug, Jinja 2 and good intentions."

I toyed around with the tutorial and was able to get a few simple apps running.  I suppose if you are interested in building web sites, this might be interesting to try.  I haven't determined if it is useful for anything else.

NLP Resources

I am spending time this semester learning NLP since my work overlaps with NLP. I found a free ebook for learning NLP in Python. Another link for this book is here.
At the UMBC NLP course web site there are also slides available.
In particular, I have been working with OpenNLP which so far has been very useful. However, I am at the point of doing in-doc coref and having a lot of problems. There is not really any documentation on the in-doc coref api calls but I did find someone who dug into the code a bit and found a way to do it. However, so far, when executing my implementation, it runs forever. I hope to have an update soon.
