Second Bilbao Data Science Workshop

BCAM-Basque Center for Applied Mathematics, Mazarredo 14, Bilbao, Basque Country, Spain

November 16-17, 2017

Data Science is an emerging discipline covering Statistics, Machine Learning, Data Mining and Mathematical modelling and their application in many different fields of research (such as life sciences, social sciences, business, etc.). Data Science is fundamentally interdisciplinary with many open challenges to explore. 

The Second BiDAS (Bilbao DAta Science) workshop at the BCAM focuses on attracting researchers in a variety of fields involving Data Science research. This workshop will feature five keynote and ten invited speakers exploring the nature of the relationship between Statistics, Computer Science and Mathematics to develop synergies among the fields.

List of topics are:

- Bayesian and High-dimensional Statistics 
- Biostatistics, Bioinformatics and Omics data 
- Environmental Statistics 
- Artificial Intelligence
- Feature subset selection
- Probabilistic Graphical Models
- Bayesian Networks
