LIP | Events Platform

Symposium   28, 29 MARCH 2019

The symposium will be organized as a series of 30 min talks with time for questions at the end. There will be time for informal discussions in coffee-breaks.

An event that shows the potential and synergies of high-energy physics and astroparticle physics in the highly demanded field of Data Science in the modern society, and create links with the industry.

The goal is to have a diversified sample of cases where Data Science is key in modern society outside fundamental science. (Some of the speakers might be former scientists who shifted their career from fundamental research at some point).  An example of a talk would be to  introduce company, the general goals,  and then  techniques and knowledge related to Data Science/Analysis they use, with real examples. (This is just a guideline, speakers have full freedom for the contents and organization of the talk).

The symposium will be organised in thematic sessions, although this should not limit the contents of the talk or contribution. It’s rather an intentionally vague guiding, allowing to join common interests and topics. Data Science is a horizontal domain, and we aim to have cross discussions between everyone. Time for informal discussions and networking will be foreseen.

In addition to the companies’ presentations, there will be some others from researchers from LIP and University of Minho, aimed at illustrating the use of Data Science in academic context, as well as making the bridge to applications beyond it.
