BERKELEY, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 11/11/14 -- Trifacta, a leading Data Transformation Platform provider, today announced that Trifacta's Co-founder and CSO, Joe Hellerstein, will present at the UC Berkeley Data Dialogs Conference on Friday, November 14, 2014. Hellerstein -- who is also a Chancellor's Professor of Computer Science at Berkeley -- will discuss breakthroughs in data wrangling and productivity gains for data scientists in a session titled, "Interaction Breakthroughs in Wrangling Data." Hellerstein will present how the human computer-interaction research at Berkeley and Stanford is being translated into enterprise software products such as Trifacta, resulting in 10x productivity gains for data scientists, and allowing business analysts to perform self-service data transformation for analysis.

"There has been intense interest in recent years in the role of the Data Scientist -- it has been called one of the 'sexiest' jobs of our time. But, as anyone who works with data regularly can attest, data science today is filled with data wrangling tasks that limit the actual time spent building models and uncovering insights. It doesn't have to be that way. In this talk, I will show how Trifacta grew out of joint research between Berkeley and Stanford, focused on melding computational and human intelligence to address the bottleneck of wrangling data for analysis. It's a very visible example of an increasingly healthy feedback loop between researchers and practitioners," said Hellerstein.
