And to our friends at Liberty Source and their families, thank you for your service! Happy Independence Day!

I’m pleased to share that Two Sigma has acquired Liberty Source PBC , a Public Benefit Corporation that employs military spouses and veterans to provide data workflow management and analysis services for other companies. As a data partner to us for several years, Liberty Source has provided critical support for our data pipeline and ingestion processes. We’re excited about this opportunity to expand the strong partnership we have built with Liberty Source and to provide resources and support to help Liberty Source expand their impact. I am also looking forward to joining their Board of Directors and helping to advance their mission of providing sustainable careers to military families.   For more information, you can read the full press release here: https://lnkd.in/g24G6nSk #data #datacentric #metadata #labeling #labelling Two Sigma Liberty Source PBC Digital Divide Data (DDD) Robert Siegel Amy H.

Two Sigma is truly a special place to work, in part because of the incredible people who work here. Our latest intern class was no exception, and it was a pleasure to meet (virtually) so many bright, young minds ready to tackle the toughest challenges we tried to throw at them. You can hear more about their experiences this past summer in our latest Two Sigma Insights post: https://lnkd.in/g2vhW99

Halite IV by Two Sigma and hosted on Kaggle has come to a close, and the winners have been announced! This year, we saw 1,295 challengers on 1,143 teams with over 15,000 submissions. I’d like to wish a big and hearty congratulations to the winners -- you can view the top solutions here: [https://lnkd.in/gKK_UPp]. Halite is an artificial intelligence challenge originated by Two Sigma where participants write bots that face off in an online multiplayer game. It’s a fun and competitive way to use and develop machine learning skills! If you’d like to get in on the fun before the next Halite season, join Kaggle’s new playground environment [https://lnkd.in/ggcmcXy], where you can engage in 2 person, non-ranked gameplay. #twosigma #kaggle #halite #competitiveprogramming #machinelearning
