Visions: An Open-Source Library for Semantic Data
Talk
Go to NumFOCUS academy page.
Many common data workflows rely on semantically meaningful representations of data types. Lacking these, type inference algorithms (e.g. those used by pandas & the tidyverse) employ fragile, rule-based heuristics which complicate programming logic and expressiveness. This talk will explore ways to leverage the power of expressive semantic data types using the visions library.
