[DMANET] Summer School on Algorithmic Data Analysis

Summer School on Algorithmic Data Analysis

Dates: June 15 - 19, 2020

Venue: Lipschitz Lecture Hall, Mathematics Center, Endenicher Allee 60, Bonn, Germany

Organizers: Anne Driemel (University of Bonn), Melanie Schmidt (University of Cologne)

Confirmed lecturers:

• Ken Clarkson (IBM Research, US)
• Ioannis Emiris (University of Athens, Greece)
• Robert Krauthgamer (Weizmann Institute, Israel)
• David Mount (University of Maryland, US)
• Jeff Phillips (University of Utah, US)
• Ruth Urner (York Uniersity, Canada)

In this Hausdorff school we study algorithmic aspects of foundational methods
to learn and generalise from data. While the nexus is algorithmic, this area of
research is a rich and vibrant field within theoretical computer science which
draws from deep connections to statistics, geometry, and combinatorics.

This Hausdorff School is intended for motivated graduate or postdoctoral
students of mathematics or computer science. Leading experts discuss geometric
and probabilistic approximation techniques and their connections to learning
theory. Each invited speaker gives a mini-course spanning three lectures
ranging from introductory material to advanced topics and current research.

Limited financial support is available. The deadline for applications is 29th
March 2020. Applicants will be notified in April. Late applications may be
considered until the summer school is fully booked.
