Welcome to our Fall 2017 Newsletter! This is the place in which we keep you informed about our recent progress.
We had a great RISECamp at the beginning of the semester! Here is the web page, and here are the videos that we feel show the enormous success of the camp. People seemed to have a great experience learning in real time about what we are doing. You may ask yourself: How does one actually put on such an event? Making this happen smoothly and seamlessly can be quite complex, so to that end, Jey Kottalam has put together this nice blog describing some of the technical issues that went on behind the scenes.
Two other items are of particular interest: one is that the RISELab faculty have put together a vision paper, which should give you an idea of some of our thoughts going forward, and the other is that RISELab faculty Michael Mahoney and Michael Jordan, along with statistics professors Bin Yu and Fernando Perez and EECS professor Richard Karp were awarded an NSF grant to create a Foundations of Data Analysis (FODA) Institute here at UC Berkeley. Details can be found here. The FODA Institute will focus on theoretical foundations of data science at the intersection of computer science theory, statistics theory, and applied mathematics. Having a mix of foundational theory inspired by and leading to real applications and implementations is one of the great aspects of the RISELab!
Thank you for your continued support.
