Due to improved sensor technology, storage space, and data technology, digital
data sets are rapidly increasing as concerns size, dimensionality, and complexity.
On the one hand, the dimensionality of data can easily reach a few thousand
(e.g. spectral and hyperspectral data, genomic data such as SNP) and data
sources are often enriched by auxiliary information which gives crucial clues to
avoid overfitting. On the other hand, data often display a specific structure
which prohibits a direct vectorial representation of data, such as sequences,
graph structures, networks, etc. These facts demand for advanced tools to
cope with these data such that a fully automated or interactive analysis of the
data becomes possible. Within the session, the focus will lie on advanced data
analysis and data visualization techniques with a particular focus on very high
dimensional or non-vectorial data, connected to the following non-exhaustive
list of topics:
*Topics*
? machine learning for graph data,
? dimensionality reduction for very high dimensional data,
? efficient embedding techniques for structured data,
? probabilistic modeling of non-vectorial data,
? natural priors for high dimensional or structured data,
? random projection and sparse representation,
? regularized metric learning,
? biomedical applications,
? network analysis.
