On the evening of October 19th dScience hosted yet another highly successful Data Science Day. The event welcomed the data science community for an effective blend of socialisation, learning, and entertainment. The theme of this year's event was "Data Science for Good,"and it brought together experts and enthusiasts from diverse fields. Here's a quick recap of the event with images.
Oslo 12-13. October 2023:
Nordic Perspectives on Artificial Intelligence event was a collaborative conference that brought together experts and leaders from various sectors in the Nordic countries to discuss the impact of artificial intelligence on research, business, and society. - See images, video recordings and download presentations from the event.
This crucial issue is directly addressed in the recently published Insight Paper "The Twin Transition Century." The Insight Paper was launched in Norway House in Brussels 21. September 2023, and strongly advocates increasing efforts in digital research to empower society in its pursuit towards the green transition.
In a world where technology is rapidly reshaping our lives and environmental concerns are reaching a critical point, it has become essential to grasp the intricate relationship between the digital and green transitions to twin them and make use of their potential synergies. New Insight Paper paves the path forward.
Causality and machine learning are two fields that have both had remarkable progress through the last few decades. The progress in machine learning, or artificial intelligence as it is often also called, has been particularly visible.
Ole Saastad, Chief Engineer at USIT, shares his thoughts around computational performance challenges.
The UiO Growth House, dScience – Centre for Computational and Data Science, UiO:Life Science and UiO:Energy and Environment are now co-located in Oslo Science Park. ‘Now the units can work more closely together and draw on each other's expertise as well as extract synergies from each other. This gives UiO the opportunity to develop its strategic initiatives and strengthen the innovation thinking’, says UiO's vice-rector for research and innovation Per Morten Sandset.
We are very excited to again be hosting the Data Science Day at the University of Oslo on October 19th at the Science Library at Blindern.
It is with great enthusiasm and deep sense of responsibility that we are soon launching Integreat. By developing new ways of doing machine learning, we hope to contribute to make Norway one of the world leading countries in AI.
It is our pleasure to introduce the first newsletter from dScience – Centre for Computational and Data Science. dScience is less than two years old, however the science behind the center has long and proud traditions at the University of Oslo.
What is actually supercomputing and HPC about? Dr. Ole Saastad, Chief Engineer at The University Center for Information Technology tries to give you a quick answer.
The Life Science Growth House and dScience – Centre for Computational and Data Science will strengthen the innovation culture at UiO and contribute to making Oslo Science Park an even more holistic ecosystem for innovation where business and academia meet. Aim: Put knowledge from research into use!
Once you know how it works for one disease, immuneML can make diagnostic tools for other types of diseases as well.
dScience has had an exciting start-up year with several activities and happenings. Here, you can read what happened at the center during 2021.
On December 2-3, 2021, CompSci and dScience PhD candidates participated in their first PhD Program Seminar.
A lot has happened since dScience – Centre for Computational and Data Science – started in the beginning of 2021, but October has been the big start-up month.
Now that the pandemic is coming closer to an end, we are thrilled to finally be able to get together for some exciting activities! One of dScience’s most important tasks is to create and run meeting places, and we are kicking it all off on October 14 in the Science Library.
