I gave a talk called Python for Statisticians at SciPy India 2015.

Prabhu Ramachandran and I gave the introductory tutorial at SciPy India 2015. Here are the slides for session 1, session 2, session 3, and session 4. And here is the pendulum.txt and bird.png files used in the tutorial.

Philip B. Stark, Kellie Ottoboni, Stéfan van der Walt, and I are developing a permutation testing library for Python. The source code is available here. More information about the package is available in my MA thesis.

Summary

As dependence on computational tools increases, so does the need for better computational training. We discuss our own efforts to provide such training. We address several larger ...

Fernando Pérez and my chapter titled "Developing open source scientific practice" was just published in "Implementing Reproducible Research (Chapman & Hall/CRC The R Series)" edited by Victoria Stodden, Friedrich Leisch, and Roger D. Peng. You can find a preprint on the Open Science Framework (OSF) website along with the other ...

A mini-symposium at the SIAM Conference on Computational Science & Engineering in Boston, MA on February 28, 2013.

Summary

Since Jon Claerbout adopted and started promoting reproducible research practices much has changed. While the problems for reproducibility of computational results have grown in conjunction with increases in computing power and storage ...

A mini-symposium at the SIAM Conference on Computational Science & Engineering in Reno, NV on March 4, 2011.

Summary

As research grows increasingly dependent on computing, it becomes critical for our computational resources to be developed with the same rigor, open review and access as the results they support. In this ...

Michael Aivazis and I guest edited the March/April 2011 special issue of Computing in Science and Engineering on Python for Scientists and Engineers.
