BDW17 London - Totte Harinen, Uber - Why Big Data Didn’t End Causal Inference

Big Data Week

Ten years ago there were rumours of the death of causal inference. Big data was supposed to enable us to rely on purely correlational data to predict and control the world. In this talk, I argue that the rumours were strongly exaggerated. Causal inference is becoming increasingly relevant thanks to improvements in inference methods and–ironically–the availability of data. Far from becoming marginalised, causal inference is today more relevant than it’s ever been.

As far as data is concerned, Pharmaceutical Companies have always been clear-sighted and assertive on what insights to get from it, how, and what to do about it. And then the Big Data Era came in, with its frantic pace, transforming multiple industries all around but, for a number of reasons (privacy and data protection issues on top but not alone) keeping the Pharma Industry behind. How to run the extra mile to keep up with the powerful changes Big Data brings along has become a major concern. Strategic opportunities seem to be around the corner. Is the time to bridge gaps finally here?

Hello London, the ground-breaking media partnership between Transport for London (TfL) and Exterion Media, gives new opportunities for brands to talk to the London audience in innovative ways and generates vital revenue for London’s transport network. TfL and Exterion have been working together in the Hello London partnership for a year. Part of the collaboration was around the utilisation of data collected by TfL to better inform advertising investment decisions. This has led to ground-breaking work in the Out-of-Home advertising sector and the first example of this is Taps Segmentation. Developed by the TfL Data Science team, it allows Exterion to understand demographic patterns at stations based on aggregated contactless and Oyster card usage. This de-personalised data can be analysed for different times of the day and is a game changer – allowing Exterion to rethink how both their classic and digital inventory can be packaged and tailored specifically for clients. The presentation will cover how TfL and Exterion have collaborated, the approach used by TfL and how Exterion are using it to generate revenue which is reinvested in the transport network.

The document discusses some of the risks associated with big data, including the risk of data breaches getting more costly as data volumes and repositories increase. It notes that smaller breaches involving 10,000 to 100,000 records on average cost hundreds per record, while mega-breaches of millions of records can cost billions and be in the range of pounds per record. The main sources of risk are identified as user error, system glitches, and attacks, with malicious attacks being the costliest. It provides some recommendations around applying security controls like access management and automation while also considering dependencies and maintaining good data hygiene.

Big Data Week

We have seen vast improvements to data collection, storage, processing and transport in recent years. An increasing number of networked devices are emitting data and all of us are preparing to handle this wave of valuable data. Have we, as data professionals, been too focused on the technical challenges and analytical results? What about the data quality? Are we confident about it? How can we be sure we are making good decisions? We need to revisit methods of assessing data quality on our modernized data platforms. The quality of our decision making depends on it.

Big Data Week

The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) and local regulators has been focussed on making banks more safe and resilient. A whole raft of new capital charges and constraints on liquidity and leverage have been introduced: Basel II.5, Basel III, Dodd-Frank, FRTB (“Basel IV”), etc. These have significantly increased the risk data management capabilities banks must have—capabilities that only big data tools can provide. This talk will cover the challenges of building a position-aware risk management platform that properly aggregates all intra-day trading activity, monitors exposures and risk. The fast data stack can help banks create such a platform and provide a robust foundation to achieve compliance and, ultimately a significant competitive edge by making efficient use of capital.
