Workshop 2: Wolfram for data science

“Workshop 2: Wolfram for Data Science” was held online on Friday, September 5, 2025, from 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM over Zoom, with a livestream on the UP Data Science Society Facebook page. It was the society’s second event with Wolfram, again in collaboration with Philippine Consortium Inc., after the April introduction to Wolfram. The workshop was open to all, and the announcement especially invited researchers and advanced learners.

Topics

The workshop covered four areas of data science work in the Wolfram Language:

• Advanced machine learning and AI
• Statistical computing and data cleaning
• Integrating Python, R, and SQL with Wolfram
• Data visualization with interactive dashboards and reports

Speaker

Karl Isensee of Wolfram Research, Inc. has been part of the Wolfram Technology Group since 2011. He holds a PhD in Astronomy and Astrophysics from the University of Minnesota, where he used Mathematica to analyze data from the Spitzer Space Telescope and the Chandra X-ray Observatory. That research was published in The Astrophysical Journal.

Afterwards

The society thanked participants in a post on September 10, 2025, with a screenshot of the Zoom session. The Facebook event listing showed 45 people interested before the workshop.
