Text Visu­al­iza­tion

Noah Pep­per, CEO of Lucky Sort

Noah Pep­per is the founder and CEO of Lucky Sort, Inc. a data min­ing and visu­al­iza­tion com­pany based in Port­land, OR. Noah will be talk­ing about Text Visu­al­iza­tion. Before found­ing Lucky Sort in May 2011, he was Direc­tor of Research and Devel­op­ment for Qmedtrix, a Portland-based firm in the med­ical insur­ance indus­try, where he led a team that devel­oped a machine learn­ing and visu­al­iza­tion plat­form to detect fraud & abuse in med­ical reimbursements.

Noah is going to dive into how Luck Sort has dealt with screen real estate, sen­sory over­load and non-technical users. “Start­ing from a touch inter­face and mov­ing to the web, we’ve been design­ing and iter­at­ing around user’s work­flows. Our pro­to­types were all wrong but we’ve focused on chang­ing quickly.”

This is going to be a pre­sen­ta­tion on how Lucky Sort’s inter­face has evolved. The talk will be on how UX design, pro­to­types, and the need to cre­ate an user cen­tric experience.

The doors will be open at 5:30pm. Please join us for a half hour of net­work­ing before the talk. We will have beer & snacks.

The pre­sen­ta­tions will start at 6pm & should last for about an hour includ­ing ques­tions & the two talks.
