How can mathematics solve your data science challenge? Sign up for the Study Group
Mathematics provides a surprising amount of techniques to solve challenges in data science. Does your company have such challenges but no time to look into them? Or would you like to strengthen your contacts in the academic world? Would you like to meet mathematicians whom you could offer a job?
Then submit your problem description to the Study Group Mathematics with Industry (SWI 2023)!
A group of 5-10 mathematicians will analyze your problem for a whole week and present a solution on Friday.
Here is a sample of the problems and solutions of more than 60 companies in 19 earlier editions:
- How can we use the national traffic sensor database to estimate the amount of cars? (CBS)
- How can we detect travel patterns from mobile sensor data without battery drain? (Mobidot)
- Can we create a good MRI-scan with less measurements? (Philips)
- How can we combine various data sources to detect dangerous fog on our roads? (KNMI)
- How can we compress audio data? (Philips)
Participation costs only €1.750 thanks to sponsoring by NWO.
SWI 2023 will take place at the University of Groningen from 30 January to 3 February 2023.
Please contact us, or watch this instructive video on the approach.
With best regards,
Dr. Stephan Trenn (University of Groningen)
Dr. Alessandro Di Bucchianico (TU Eindhoven)
Dr. Vivi Rottschäfer (Universiteit Leiden)
