Derrick Harris writes in: Kaggle is now crowdsourcing big data creativity about a new product from Kaggle, Kaggle Prospect:
The Kaggle Prospect homepage says:
Kaggle Prospect is an open data exploration and problem identification platform that lets organizations with large datasets solicit proposals from the best minds in our 40,000 strong community of predictive modeling and machine learning experts. The experts will peer-review each others ideas’ and we’ll present you with the short list of what problems your data could answer.
If you are sitting on a gold mine of data, but aren’t sure where to start digging, Kaggle Prospect is the place to start.
Kaggle Prospect has a great deal of promise. Assuming enough users can pry data out of data silos for submission. 😉
If you are not familiar with Kaggle contests, see: Kaggle.
PS: I like the Kaggle headline:
We’re making data science a sport.™
