I’m Andreas Varotsis, a data scientist and public safety researcher working to improve the use of data and evidence in government.I try to use an empirical approach and multi-disciplinary, quantitative tools to understand, diagnose, and build solutions for critical problems around public cohesion, society and public safety.
I also enjoy coordinating exciting communities, and working with fantastic institutions to build projects that improve the world.
My particular areas of interest are:
- data-science and machine learning
- crime and police activity in physical space
- econometrics and economic modelling
- experimental and quasi-experimental testing
- rapid technological solutions and innovation
I use this site to showcase my recent work, and discuss new data-science and statistical tools and techniques on my blog.
