Open the Black Box Part 2: Playing in the Sandbox

Written by Lauralee Dhabhar | Jan 20, 2023 3:36:23 PM

In part 1 of this series, the Giant Oak Science team introduced the concept of explainability and the basics of how the GOST models are constructed.  This time, Social Scientist Ben Crisman is taking us on a tour of his team's sandbox. No shovels or pails will be required here. A data sandbox is a secure environment in which scientists and engineers conduct experiments with real-world data. This environment allows our team to collaborate and analyze models for accuracy, quality, and compliance.

For more on why sandboxing is important and how it helps not only our own product development but the work of our clients, check out this blog article.
