1. Emerging data sets made available by the European Union
   The European Union provides datasets on a number of subjects such as transportation, education, communication, population, economy and health.

2. Health-related data sets to track the health of people, to do genomic sequencing. MIRAGE( minimum information required for a glycomics(molecule) experiment) is another field for which public data is available.

3. World financial data such as the Balance of Payments, economic data made available by the International Monetary Fund.

4. Data sets made available by the Stanford University on topics such as on-line community interaction.

5. Data sets made available by the World Bank on various subjects such as poverty, income, population , growth(in GDP), environment(CO₂ emissions), disease patterns across the world.

6. Amazon Web Services public datasets provides a huge resource of datasets such as the Common Crawl dataset which can be analyzed for almost any information on the web using tools such as the Warcbase project.

At the end of the project, the deliverables would include :

• A set of at least 4 6 notebooks for the above proposed data sets with at least 2 using Helium functionality.

• Documentation for the notebooks.

• Results of any tests and bug fixes that were encountered during the development phase.

...

I also propose to create a blog post to document my progress about the creation of notebooks all along the development cycle. The blog would contain detailed explanations about the various models implemented for the analysis of the datasets and it would welcome suggestions form anyone interested in commenting or advising anything about the notebooks being created or the approach taken to implement them.

...

Schedule :

April 22 – May 22 : This time would be utilized in interacting as much as possible with the community and the mentors and learning more about the project in general(the working of various components) and suggested methods of implementation in specific(such as prospects of inclusion of Helium in the project).

...

The time line breakdown is the same for the second half of the project as the first half, although I expect that once things are learned and grasped, work in the second half would be quicker than the first half. The creation of four six notebooks is not an upper bound, as mentioned above, if time permits I would not hesitate to create more notebooks(more than six) on other data sets.

July 30 – Pencils Down : This period would be used to improve existing documentation, testing, bug fixing, and other enhancements on the notebooks created.
