Session 9: From Applications To Theory

While applications have their own nuances, there are overarching challenges that need to be identified and addressed. These include, among others, fundamental questions in prediction, robustness/risk, computation, system architecture, and privacy. This session will address some of the emerging challenges in these foundational fields in this new era of large data and complex systems.
