Introducing Virtualitics Smart Sampling: Get the Right Sample Every Time

Amanda Derrick Season 4 Episode 12

Gathering a sample from your dataset that properly represents the nuances in the data is challenging for anyone, even seasoned data scientists. Since it’s likely that the data you need to explore is massive, sampling can’t be avoided. But taking shortcuts–first and last rows, time-bound, and even the classic random sample algorithm–can introduce bias into your exploration. With our latest release, we’ve introduced a new Smart Sampling application that streamlines data sampling, while still allowing you to tailor the approach to suit your needs.
