U.S.-Japan Joint Seminar Information Theory

0508025 Fossorier该奖项支持美国科学家和学生参与美国-日本信息理论科学家联合讲习班将在夏威夷举行。 共同组织者是檀香山的夏威夷大学的马克·福索里耶教授和日本大坂市立大学的冈郁夫教授。 信息论是一个深刻的国际研究领域，其许多最强大的贡献者来自美国和日本。 它已经成为一个丰富和不断发展的概念和数学结构不断与系统约束和当今的应用需求相结合的领域。 该领域的许多最著名的研究人员都以他们对实践和理论的贡献而闻名，这两者通常是密切相关的。 电气和电子工程师协会（IEEE）的信息理论（IT）协会的日本分会是迄今为止最大的分会。 IEEE IT学会理事会建议，应特别努力发展美国和日本在这一领域的合作。 因此，建议举办这一讲习班，并选择夏威夷，因为它的地理位置。 会议的目的是促进科学进步、理解和传播学会感兴趣的领域的研究成果，包括“编码、通信和通信网络、复杂性和密码学、检测和估计、学习、香农理论和随机过程的理论和某些应用方面”。“共同组织者在该领域具有互补的科学专长。 这使他们能够评估和吸引最好的科学和数学研究人员参加。 研讨会的组织者作出了特别努力，让博士后和研究生作为与会者和观察员参加。 与该领域的日本专家交流想法和数据将使美国参与者能够推进自己的工作，并为未来的合作项目奠定基础。 研讨会之后，组织者计划建立一个研讨会网页。 会议记录将在本网站上公布。

0508025FossorierThis award supports the participation of American scientists and students in a U.S.-Japan joint workshop for scientists on information theory to be held in Hawaii. The co-organizers are Professor Marc Fossorier at the University of Hawaii in Honolulu and Professor Ikuo Oka at the Osaka City University in Japan. Information theory is a profoundly international field of study and many of its strongest contributors have come from the US and Japan. It has become a field where the rich and ever evolving conceptual and mathematical structure is being constantly combined with the system constraints and application demands of today. Many of the best-known researchers in the field are known for both their contributions to practice and to theory, and the two are usually closely related. Japan's chapter of the Information Theory (IT) Society of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) is by far its largest chapter. The Board of Governors of the IEEE IT Society suggested that particular efforts should be made to develop collaborations between the US and Japan in this field. Therefore, this workshop was suggested and Hawaii chosen because of its geographical location. The purpose of the meeting is to promote scientific advancement, understanding, and the dissemination of research results in the fields of interest of the Societies that embraces "theoretical and certain applied aspects of coding, communication and communication networks, complexity and cryptography, detection and estimation, learning, Shannon theory, and stochastic processes." The co-organizers have complementary scientific expertise in the field. This enables them to evaluate and attract the best science and mathematician researchers to participate. The seminar organizers have made a special effort to involve postdocs and graduate students as both participants and observers. The exchange of ideas and data with Japanese experts in the field will enable U.S. participants to advance their own work, and will set the stage for future collaborative projects. Following the seminar the organizers plan to establish a workshop web page. Conference proceedings will be published on this web site.
