Mathematics of big data

Event description

This informal workshop will review some of the research interests in the Schools of Informatics and Mathematics related to Data Science, or "Big Data", and seek to build connections between them in the context of the new University-wide initiative "Edinburgh Data Science". The meeting is open to everyone interested in the mathematical foundations of Big Data.
