Past Events

Topological Data Visualization Workshop promotional image

Topological Data Visualization Workshop

Monday, May 16 8:00am to Friday, May 20, 2022 4:00pm

The workshop format is expected to be in person; however, many talks will be available online. Thus we expect to have both in person and online participants. Not all activities will be available to online participants.

Some datasets are too small for standard statistical/data analysis to accurately characterize the data. Others are extremely large and data size reduction methods may be needed. One solution is to use topological data analysis to simplify and/or visualize data. This workshop will...

Abstract

Despite significant efforts on cybersecurity, we are observing an increasing number of attacks in recent years. The reason for this harsh reality is all our efforts aim at individual incidents and there is no deep understanding of attack surfaces in software systems. As a result, software systems are integrated with too many individual patches and ad-hoc mitigations, which slows
down systems significantly without introducing substantial security benefits.
