Big Data

Introduction

Course

Conferences and Workshops

Topics

Labs

  • Big Data@CSAIL, MIT, 23 nodes (projects), e.g., linked data, computer vision, natural language, machine learning, social, etc.
  • NASA tournament lab, big data challenge, Apply the process of open innovation to conceptualizing new and novel approaches to using “big data” information sets from various U.S. government agencies, e.g., health, energy and earth science.
  • Fastlab, Georgia Tech, make all textbook state-of-the-art machine learning methods computationally tractable on big datasets.
  • Noah'S ark lab, HK, their goal is to push the frontier of our understanding on how knowledge can be learned and intelligence can be realized from the Big Data.
  • Select Lab, CMU, the techniques they develop encompass a wide range of topics, including probabilistic graphical models, active learning and value of information, distributed algorithms, probabilistic inference, decision making under uncertainty, online learning and game theory.

Tutorial

  • Scaling Up Machine Learning-Parallel and Distributed Approaches, State-of-the-art platforms and algorithm choices, Hardware options (from FPGAs and GPUs to multi-core systems and commodity clusters), Programming frameworks (including CUDA, MPI, MapReduce, and DryadLINQ), Learning settings (e.g., semi-supervised and online learning), Example-driven, covering a number of popular algorithms (e.g., boosted trees, spectral clustering, belief propagation) and diverse applications (e.g., speech recognition and object recognition in vision)
  • Faster Learning for Massive Datasets by Alex Gray, The presentation describes new approaches for online learning and stochastic programming, which achieve both tighter theoretical bounds across the board and significant empirical gains over state-of-the-art approaches including stochastic gradient descent and mirror descent. It also presents a scheme for distributed online learning exhibiting first-of-a-kind theoretical and empirical gains. For nonlinear kernelized methods, kernel matrix multiplications and summations become a bottleneck. It shows fast algorithms which provably reduce computation times from quadratic to linear time, with corresponding empirical runtime results, demonstrated on over 10,000 cores.
  • Big Data Analytics: Applications and Opportunities in On-line Predictive Modeling, In this talk I will cover some of the basics in terms of infrastructure and design considerations for effective an efficient BigData. In many organizations, the lack of consideration of effective infrastructure and data management leads to unnecessarily expensive systems for which the benefits are insufficient to justify the costs. We will then pay specific attention to on-line data and the unique challenges and opportunities represented there. We cover examples of Predictive Analytics over Big Data with case studies in eCommerce Marketing, on-line publishing and recommendation systems, and advertising targeting: Special focus will be placed on the analysis of on-line data with applications in Search, Search Marketing, and targeting of advertising. We conclude with some technical challenges as well as the solutions that can be used to these challenges in social network data.
