Data analytics and visualization (DAV) addresses the explosion in quantity, richness and accessibility of diverse forms of data produced by a myriad of instruments and systems, including (i) Critical physical infrastructures like sensor networks, power grids, wireless communication systems, and transportation networks; (ii) Social and economic networks and; (iii) Healthcare systems like immunization and epidemiology networks, and molecular and gene regulatory networks. However, the big data revolution is meaningless without concomitant growth in technologies for extracting, analyzing, interpreting and visualizing the valuable information embedded in these data. Success demands a multidisciplinary approach that combines signal processing, mathematical modeling, statistical analysis and machine learning methods with cognitive science and visual and design practices and knowledge. The proposed CREATE training program in Data Analytics & Visualization is an innovative program that will provide interdisciplinary training in both computational analytics and perceptual design methodologies for deriving value from big data for a broad range of industrial applications. The program is a multi-institution, multi-sector collaboration between York University (the lead institution), OCAD University, Concordia University and the University of Toronto, together with a number of leading Canadian high-tech companies in Toronto and Montreal, focused on applications in cloud computing, digital cultures, health technology and smart cities.Graduates of the program will go on to take permanent positions in industry, universities and government, and will be Canadian leaders in the field of Data Analytics and Visualization in a broad range of application areas.

数据分析和可视化（DAV）解决了由无数仪器和系统产生的各种形式的数据的数量，丰富性和可访问性的爆炸，包括（i）关键的物理基础设施，如传感器网络，电网，无线通信系统和运输网络;（ii）社会和经济网络;（iii）社会和经济网络。（三）卫生保健系统，如免疫和流行病学网络，以及分子和基因调控网络。然而，如果没有提取、分析、解释和可视化这些数据中嵌入的有价值信息的技术的同步增长，大数据革命就毫无意义。成功需要多学科方法，将信号处理，数学建模，统计分析和机器学习方法与认知科学，视觉和设计实践和知识相结合。拟议的数据分析和可视化的CREATE培训计划是一项创新计划，将提供计算分析和感知设计方法的跨学科培训，以便从大数据中获取广泛的工业应用价值。该计划是约克大学与（牵头机构），OCAD大学，Concordia大学和多伦多大学，以及多伦多和蒙特利尔的一些领先的加拿大高科技公司，专注于云计算，数字文化，健康技术和智能城市的应用。该计划的毕业生将继续在工业，大学和政府，并将在数据分析和可视化领域的广泛应用领域的加拿大领导者。
