ACT/SGER: Intelligent Extraction of Information from Graphs and High Dimensional Data

强大的新数学技术的出现激发了培养新一代应对与国家安全相关的许多挑战的需求。该奖项将于2005年在加州大学洛杉矶分校的纯粹与应用数学研究所（IPAM）举办一个为期三周的暑期学校。主要专家将讲授从图像、高维几何结构和图形中解释数据的技术，大约一半的课程将致力于高维数据分析。主题将包括图挖掘、关系数据挖掘和社会网络分析。IPAM是一个国家机构，其本质上的跨学科使命是连接数学家，科学家和工程师，非常适合运行这样一个项目，旨在将前沿研究与劳动力发展相结合。每周大约有200名参与者，包括学生、博士后、教师、工业界和情报界工作人员，将产生广泛的影响，包括情报界面临的数学挑战的培训，以及获得重要的专业联系。该奖项由美国国家科学基金会和情报界共同支持。数学和物理科学理事会的反恐方法计划支持基础研究和劳动力发展方面的新概念，这些概念有可能为国家安全做出贡献。

AST-0442015GreenThe emergence of powerful new mathematical techniques motivates the need for training a new generation in the many challenges relevant to national security. This award supports a three-week summer school to be held in 2005 at the Institute for Pure and Applied Mathematics (IPAM) at the University of California-Los Angeles. Leading experts will lecture on the techniques of interpreting data from images, high dimensional geometric structures, and graphs, and approximately half of the program will be devoted to high dimensional data analysis. Main themes will include graph mining, relational data mining, and social networks analysis. IPAM, a national institute with an intrinsically interdisciplinary mission to connect mathematicians, scientists, and engineers, is well suited to run such a program, designed to integrate cutting-edge research with workforce development. With roughly 200 participants each week, including students, postdocs, faculty, industry, and intelligence community staff, there will be a broad range of impacts, including training in the mathematical challenges facing the intelligence community, and the acquisition of important professional contacts.This award is supported jointly by the NSF and the Intelligence Community. The Approaches to Combat Terrorism Program in the Directorate for Mathematical and Physical Sciences supports new concepts in basic research and workforce development with the potential to contribute to national security.
