Dear Data Science Seminar list subscribers:

After a 2-year hiatus due to the pandemic, it is time to start the Data
Science talks again!

The next talk will be this coming Friday April 29th, 2022, from
12:00-1:00pm  at the MRB Seminar Room (1st floor).

**** Pizza and refreshments will be provided ****

To keep track of the number of attendees, please *register* at:

The talk will be given by Prof. Jia Chen, Department of Electrical and
Computer Engineering, UCR

Title: Multiview learning for knowledge discovery

Abstract:

Extracting hidden patterns of multiview data containing heterogeneous
feature representations is attracting more and more attention in various
scientific fields such as image processing and natural language
processing. In this talk we will present a comprehensive unsupervised
framework that leverages existing and novel multiview learning models,
towards obtaining a single node embedding from a collection of node
embeddings, combining the best of all worlds. Furthermore, we will
introduce two new approaches for discriminative knowledge discovery of
multiple datasets and demonstrate their effectiveness on several
applications such as extracting the symptoms mostly related to COVID-19
with respect to Flu using Google Trends data.



------------------------------------
Sponsored by the UCR Data Science Center, the purpose of the Data Science
talks is to foster collaborations between "core" Data  Science faculty
(from CSE/ECE/Stat Departments) and faculty/visitors from other sciences
that face Data Science problems in their research. These informal
gatherings are open to interested faculty and graduate students. Each
meeting will start with a talk describing research problems and then a
discussion will follow for questions, open problems, ideas for possible
collaborations etc.

Please forward this email to other colleagues or graduate students in 
your lab that may be interested.

Moreover, if you are interested in giving a Data Science related talk,

Vassilis Tsotras
Professor, CSE Department
