We will have a monthly internal newsletter about our COST Action. Please add any information you want to have included here. There is also an External Newsletter.
December 1, 2020
- Meeting minutes for the 2nd MC meeting which took place November 12, 2020, are now available.
Diversity
- Proposal from our COST Officer Ralph Stübner: A regular gender balance session during each meeting, focussing on one topic each.
- Example for the role of female scientists, one example from another Action
- We need a diversity team (please contact Tatjana for more details), with a survey focussing on our Action (example)
Research Activities
- Our Action was one of only two academic partners of the Quant Insights Conference 2020, featuring talks from Dr. Harry Markowitz, Dr. Paul Wilmott, Nassim Taleb, Professor Emanuel Derman, Elie Ayache, Aaron Brown, Jim Gatheral, and many more to discover the latest innovations in volatility, agent-based modeling, portfolio optimization, and risk. (Thanks to Natalie!)
- Members of our Action have applied to the Chist-Era 2021 consultation with proposals on Reinforcement Learning and ESG.
- Monthly research seminar took place on November 25, 2020. 35 people took part in the event.
Invitations
- Ania Zalewska: 14-15 December 2020: You are invited to the global AI standards landscape: an extended seminar - ART-AI.
- Dolores Romero Morales: We are welcoming submissions to the Area of “Data Science and Analytics” @ EURO 2021, Athens (Greece), July 11-14, 2021. We have a number of sessions in place around, among others, the topics of Business Analytics, Data Science and Mathematical Optimization, Ethics in Analytics, Explainability and Transparency in Artificial Intelligence. Get in touch with Dolores Romero Morales if you would like to organize a session or submit a paper.
Call for participation
- Due to the extension of the Grant Period until October 31, 2021, please update any activities you would like to request funding for.
- Our COST Officer Ralph Stübner invites us to register as COST evaluators (using the e-cost profile).

Machine Learning NeEDS Mathematical Optimization
by Dolores Romero Morales, starting January 11, 2021
Weekly Online Seminar Series “Machine Larning NeEDS Mathematical Optimization”
This is a weekly seminar series that will take place every Monday, at 16.30 (CET). It will be 100% online-access, and it will have speakers from around the globe. We have lined up a number of presentations from leading academics in the field of Data Science and Analytics that will cover important topics such as explainability, fairness, fraud, privacy, transparency, etc. Mathematical Modeling and Mathematical Optimization will be at the core of their presentations. We will also have presentations from junior academics showing their latest results in this burgeoning area.
