Workshop on Mathematical Data Science (MDS) 2019

Program
The technical program consists of 30-minute talks given on Monday, October 14 and Tuesday, October 15. We will be holding a "concepts"-workshop. We therefore encourage the speakers to give talks on concepts emphasizing the pedagogical aspect rather than presenting their latest technical results. For example, if you have an interesting way of explaining a result that appears in highly technical form in the literature, please do not hesitate to "translate" this result and explain it in detail. This does not need to be one of your own results.The booklet of abstracts can be downloaded here.
MDS 2019 is co-sponsored by EURASIP and Huawei.
