The KISS principle tells us to “Keep it simple, stupid.” As machine learning techniques become more sophisticated, the need to KISS only becomes greater. This is especially true for industries that have been more hesitant to embrace data analytics. Zubin Siganporia discusses the role that simplicity plays in approaching a problem and then convincing end users to adopt data-driven solutions to their challenges.
