Kari Baker is a data scientist and swordswoman from Arizona who writes appallingly advanced data analysis articles for Sword STEM. In our conversation we discuss how data helped increase women’s participation in events and whether we can predict a double in tournaments.
You can find Kari’s Sword STEM articles here: http://swordstem.com/author/kbaker/
