Topic: Data Science: Math Meets CS
Abstract:
Modern data science spans computer science, mathematics, and applications. This talk will bring a sharp focus on the interactions between computer science and mathematics. We will discuss two data-science examples in which mathematics and computer science support and nourish each other. The first example is deep learning, where mathematical statistics can lead to a more profound understanding of computer-science pipelines. The second example is extremes, where efficient computing algorithms can lead to mathematical models of unprecedented detail. Thus, the talk will illustrate the fact that mathematics and computer science complement, and really need each other in contemporary data science.
