When my father came home from Vietnam, I was too young to remember. When I got older, he told me his tales as all fathers do. In one of them, he told me that he lost a friend because of an initial design defect in the M16A1 rifle. As...
Freya’s Michelle Caler asks: do you need a Ph.D. to be a Data Scientist? Hello world! My name is Michelle Caler, and I am Freya’s newest Data Scientist. This is something of a career change for me, as I used to be an Instructor in the Department of Physics...
The Current Energy Dilemma in Water Treatment The critical component of water and waste treatment processing is the common architecture of electric motors and controls. In the United States, the treatment process is driven by electric motor-driven devices, including energy-intensive pumps. Studies and publications from the past ten years...
Our impact is measured in how we equip clients with predictive models and decision tools to be more effective, efficient, and safe in their operations. We employ data strategies to fuel condition-based maintenance models and customize dashboard tools so that clients are making data-driven decisions. We are most acutely...

Towards the end of 2021, Freya hosted a hackathon that split the team into two separate factions asked to solve a distinct set of computer vision problems. The resulting days allowed for collaboration and problem solving that really got the data science juices flowing. Two Real-World Problems Each team...
According to IBM Research: “Software development refers to a set of computer science activities dedicated to the process of creating, designing, deploying and supporting software.” Software itself is the set of code that tells a device what to do. The software could be for an individual job function or...
The Goal As a data scientist you often find yourself creating a notebook documenting a new model or an update to an existing model. Recently in this particular situation I was analyzing how my model was performing within windows of time throughout the prediction window. I wanted a visualization...
The modern field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is perhaps, not so modern but rather a journey over almost three centuries of improved workflows to create more efficient and responsive processes. AI in its current state is not a replacement for human intelligence and ingenuity but rather a support tool....
