Metabolomic data, usually from mass spectrometry or nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, is highly complex and information rich. With continuing advances in metabolite detection technologies, the volume and complexity of data is ever increasing. Computational analysis of metabolomic data, from raw data processing to biological interpretation, is therefore fundamental to realizing the impact of metabolomics on a diverse array of application fields, e.g., environmental toxicity, industrial biotechnology, and biomedicine. This Dagstuhl Seminar extends the Computational Metabolomics series to examine how we can enhance the utility and interpretation of metabolomics data.

Application Software,    Algorithms and Data Structures

This is a School organized by the ErUM-Data-Hub with support from DIG-UM.

In this school you will learn how Python code can be accelerated. A focus will be placed on numeric NumPy-like array computations. In addition, running these array computations on hardware accelerators, i.e., GPUs, will play a key role in this school. The school is intended for young researchers - especially for PhD students - who regularly work with the scientific Python ecosystem. Requirements are good knowledge of the scientific Python ecosystem, basics of the C++ programming language are beneficial.

Modern algorithms for data analysis require the use of advanced probabilistic methods to achieve desirable scalability and accuracy guarantees. At the same time, modern data-analysis tasks require the use of advanced statistics to handle challenges such as testing for multiple hypotheses or identifying dependencies among data points, such as in time series or graphs. Probabilistic methods are also at the core theoretical computer-science areas, such as sublinear algorithms and average-case analysis. To obtain efficient data-analysis algorithms, probabilistic methods require careful balancing of theoretical and practical aspects. This Dagstuhl Seminar brings together researchers interested in statistical and probabilistic methods to design and analyze scalable algorithms for discovering knowledge in large and rich datasets. We plan to cover the following topics, among others.

The vision of NFDI4DS is to support all steps of the complex and interdisciplinary research data lifecycle in Data Science and Artificial Intelligence. The overarching objective of NFDI4DS is the development, establishment, and sustainment of a national research data infrastructure for the Data Science and Artificial Intelligence community. The key idea is to work towards increasing the transparency, reproducibility and fairness of Data Science and Artificial Intelligence projects, by making all digital artifacts available, interlinking them, and offering innovative tools and services. Within this Dagstuhl Research Meeting, the NFDI4DS partners will reflect on their progress so far, and will work on their long-term strategy.

In modern computational systems, the need to handle large-scale inputs imposes interesting computational challenges. Two such challenges are (1) the need to distribute the computation over multiple units, and (2) the dynamic nature of the input, which may undergo changes over time. A particular class of problems studied in these settings is when the input to the computational task is a huge graph. The field of dynamic graph algorithms addresses efficiently processing edge/vertex insertions/deletions in the input graph. In distributed graph algorithms, the input resides across multiple machines, and the goal is to solve the problem while minimizing the number of rounds of communication. Both of these rich research areas have been extensively studied since at least the 1980’s. We know of efficient algorithms for a large variety of tasks, such as shortest paths problems, coloring, subgraph finding, symmetry breaking, approximations, and many more. However, there are still fundamental problems with no known efficient solutions in some of these models, and even more where the exact complexity of computation is yet to be determined. In the recent years, a number of influential works show how transferring ideas from one of these models to the other provides progress on some of the long-lasting open problems. The goal of this Dagstuhl Seminar is to build a bridge between the two research communities of dynamic graph algorithms and distributed computing, by working together on joint research frontiers.
