IMA Workshop: User-Centered Modeling
Month: May 2012
Date: May 7--11
Name: IMA Workshop: User-Centered Modeling
Location: Institute for Mathematics and its Applications (IMA), University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, Minnesota.
Description
This data-driven workshop will explore the challenges for inference, models, algorithms and graphical and analytical tools that these different aspects of user-centered modeling raise. The plan is to start with enabling, evaluating, and analyzing data that users actively contribute in citizen science, taking into account thorny issues like data aggregation, selection bias, data quality, and inferential uncertainty, then move on to data that users passively contribute or leave behind on the Web, even when they are trying to hide, and asking the same questions in that context.
