Title : Handling Data in a Data Rich Age
Date : Oct 8, 2007
Speaker : Yu Ding, Associate Professor
Affiliation : Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering, Texas A&M University
Abstract
Smart devices with multiple on-board sensors, networked through wired or wireless links and deployable in large numbers, are distributed in physical systems and environments for broad applications ranging from security surveillance, healthcare delivery, transportation control, to manufacturing quality control. Distributed sensor systems have resulted in a data rich environment and provide us unprecedented opportunities for enhancing our decision making capability. T his talk discusses several data analysis problems encountered by our research group as well as our research undertaking in addressing them.
