First Bilbao Data Science Workshop

First Bilbao Data Science Workshop

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

December 19-20, 2016

Data Science and Big Data are two key areas for positive interdisciplinary science involving applied mathematics, statistics and computer science. A number of challenges in all those three areas of research require new approaches to support the big data era. BiDAS (Bilbao DAta Science) workshop is the first event at BCAM focused on attracting researchers in a variety of fields involving Data Science research.

The tentative list of topics are:

* Learning from massive data and predictive modelling
* Classification methods
* Scalable and incremental algorithms for real-time analysis and
decision-making
* Machine Learning based on Big Data
* Industrial applications
* High-dimensional Statistics
* Economics and Time series
* Biostatistics

Keynote speakers:

* Humberto BUSTINCE (Public University of Navarra, Spain)
* Joao GAMA (University of Porto, Portugal)
* Iñaki INZA (UPV/EHU, Spain)
* Yvan SAEYS (University of Ghent, Belgium)
