A revised and expanded version of the peterjamesthomas.com Data and Analytics Dictionary has been published.

The previous Dictionary was not the easiest to read on mobile devices. Because of this, the layout has been amended in this release and the mobile experience should now be greatly enhanced. Any feedback on usability would be welcome.

The new Dictionary includes 22 additional definitions, bringing the total number of entries to 220, totalling well over twenty thousand words. As usual, the new definitions range across the data arena: from Data Science and Machine Learning; to Information and Reporting; to Data Governance and Controls. They are as follows:

1. Analysis Facility
2. Analytical Repository
3. Boosting [Machine Learning]
4. Conformed Data (Conformed Dimension)
5. Data Capability
6. Data Capability Framework (Data Capability Model)
7. Data Capability Review (Data Capability Assessment)
8. Data Driven
9. Data Governance Framework
10. Data Issue Management
11. Data Maturity
12. Data Maturity Model
13. Data Owner
14. Data Protection Officer (DPO)
15. Data Roadmap
16. Geospatial Tool
17. Image Recognition (Computer Vision)
18. Overfitting
19. Pattern Recognition
20. Robot (Robotics, Bot)
21. Random Forest
22. Structured Reporting Framework

Please remember that The Dictionary is a free resource and quoting contents (ideally with acknowledgement) and linking to its entries (via the buttons provided) are both encouraged.

If you would like to contribute a definition, which will of course be acknowledged, you can use the comments section here, or the dedicated form, we look forward to hearing from you ^[1].
