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.</p> <p>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.”</p> <p>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.</p> <p>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.</p> <p>The pre­sen­ta­tions will start at 6pm & should last for about an hour includ­ing ques­tions & the two talks.</p> </div> <h3>Links</h3> <ul> <li><a class="url u-url" href="http://pdxux.com">Website</a></li> </ul> </div>
