Thematic Einstein Semester (TES)

SMALL DATA ANALYSIS Winter Semester 2023/24

 

This Thematic Einstein Semester will deal with the analysis of small complex data sets, a small number of research objects, or rare objects, for which standard statistical methods are not applicable and the data itself does not sufficiently represent expert knowledge.

The Thematic Einstein Semester aims to intensify the collaboration between mathematicians and researchers from other disciplines who develop research methods for small data sets.

 

In the TES we have two different workshops:

1st Workshop:  An interdisciplinary workshop on knowledge-driven analytics (November 1 to 3 at the Zuse Institute Berlin)

2nd Workshop: Methods of mathematics (17. – 19.01.2024)

 

Hackathon 22. – 24.01.2024

  • A Hackathon of the Thematic Einstein Semester will be held from January 22 – 24. Different groups will be sat on computers and will ‘calculate’ and discuss specific case studies from different disciplines

 

Final Conference 11. – 12.03.2024

  • The Final Conference aims at the theme of “Interpretation of mathematical results”. For example: How does contextual knowledge come into play?
    The results will be presented and summarized.

 

Podcasts

  • Throughout the Thematic Einstein Semseter, we will create a thematic Podcast that casts a spotlight on particular interfaces between real-world applications and mathematics, introducing them to a broader research community as well as the general public.

 

 We hope to explore differences and similarities in existing work and to discover gaps

→ and open questions of interest for future research
