I have about years of experience working with a few languages on the API/Engineering side. Looking for someone with background on the science/stat side or just the data analysis side to go win this! ---

Invited everyone to the team! Has anyone made progress? What is going well and what are the hardest challenges you are facing? What steps do you think are next? If yall can answer that this week, I will build a trello board and slack so we can work effectively together! ---

> [@Su\_raj](#): > > what should be the data science technique The competition is to pick the right ones, which can be many 🙂 What is your background? Do you have a math degree? Programming skills? if it’s neither that’s OK, but getting started might require some learning, I can send over some you tube videos! If you are brand new, I would not focus on trying to win the whole competition, just take it slow and learn. ---

@Turki / @Su_raj Those backgrounds are so interesting!! Su, I would love to see more ML used for studying history!! Turki, Physics will help you here, just get ready to get into a world that is WAY more subjective! Here are the videos that have helped me, sorted by subject! I am a newbie somewhat myself to ML, but I have 7 years of programming experience in python. **Basics and high level** [![](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex028/uploads/drivendata1/original/2X/1/1b901834c67e97ee5363c89716d7371380567082.jpeg "Machine Learning Explained in 100 Seconds") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PeMlggyqz0Y) [![](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex028/uploads/drivendata1/original/2X/0/0408a13fe61076a12899f1259e3536a8040bdd03.jpeg "PyTorch in 100 Seconds") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ORMx45xqWkA) [![](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex028/uploads/drivendata1/original/2X/5/5cb7cbc5083f43f45ffa8cae6f790ae061e7d68c.jpeg "TensorFlow in 100 Seconds") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8NETqtGHms) _ **Getting in to the details** _ [![](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex028/uploads/drivendata1/original/2X/7/721532f527bc58fa052c064c168c2698fa21f8c6.jpeg "PyTorch for Deep Learning & Machine Learning – Full Course") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_xro1bcAuA) https://www.youtube.com/embed/aircAruvnKk?feature=oembed&wmode=opaque&list=PLZHQObOWTQDNU6R1_67000Dx_ZCJB-3pi https://www.youtube.com/embed/dGtDTjYs3xc?feature=oembed&wmode=opaque&list=PLeo1K3hjS3ut49PskOfLnE6WUoOp_2lsD **NOTE** This is a new field!
