Qualitative Research on Engineering Practice

Project Features Conducting interviews with practicing engineers Coaching students in reflective practice to study their own learning Developing theoretical frameworks to understand engineering practice Designing and testing educational interventions to improve engineers’ understanding of uncertainty Project Background Engineers are responsible for delivering safe, efficient solutions. For…

Olin College Research Study: Data Science for Engineers

Are you interested in learning how to use data science in your engineering work? Are you a practicing engineer? You might be interested in this opportunity! This summer (June of 2023) I am running a study of practicing engineers. This study includes a free 2-day professional development workshop on data science in engineering. This workshop is designed for engineers with a background in structural…

Exploratory Model Analysis: A Brief Demo

Exploratory Model Analysis: A Demo When studying a dataset we use an exploratory analysis to gather an initial impression of the data. We can use a similar approach when studying a model. The grama python package is designed to support the analysis of models, including exploratory model analysis (EMA). What follows is a short demonstration of EMA using grama. Setup The grama package is a python…

Precision Materials Indices: Materials Selection with Statistically Rigorous Reliability Analysis

Noise, Deviation, Anomaly, & Mistake

It’s an exciting thing in science when you find something you didn’t set out to discover! Over the summer research period, I set out to better understand how engineers reason about variability. In the process of writing grants and designing interview protocols to elicit engineers’ thoughts, I had to do a lot of thinking on how variability “ought” to be defined. To…

When are Allowables Conservative?

Active Learning Examples

To help make ideas from my Assessing the Frontier paper more accessible, I put together a short example in the form of a Jupyter notebook . This example uses Grama to demonstrate computation of Pareto shell error, and computation of the hyperplane probability of improvement acquisition function.

November Cambridge Cheminformatics Talk

I was invited to give a talk at the November Cambridge Cheminformatics meeting. There I discussed lessons learned from my Assessing the Frontier paper; namely, the unsuitability of traditional model accuracy metrics for judging the efficacy of ML for materials discovery. Links to slides and a video recording are both available.

Grama --- A Grammar of Model Analysis

Project Features Developing open-source Python software Designing according to user-centered principles Constructing a scientific modeling framework Project Description Grama is a grammar of model analysis —a Python package that supports building and analyzing models with quantified uncertainties. This language is heavily inspired by the Tidyverse . Grama provides convenient syntax for…

Materials Informatics

Project Features Consulting with scientists and engineers across industry and universities Using Grama to investigate materials data Deploying novel data science techniques to accelerate materials discovery Project Description Materials informatics is the use of data science to support the study of materials. One of the most exciting topics in materials informatics is the use of machine learning…

Summer Data Science

The pandemic lockdown required us to work in new ways. While I’d spent much of my time in graduate school learning how to teach in-person, teaching online was new to me. Knowing my fall would likely involve a lot of online teaching, I ran a summer offering of Data Science for Olin Alumni to get some more experience. Part of what I wanted to figure out is how to structure an online class. A…
