虽然令人兴奋，但不断发展的数据科学领域可能会让人感到排他性和无定形， and down-right scary. Data literacy seems important given that so many of tomorrow’s 工作将以这样或那样的形式涉及人工智能，但具体是什么 is data science and how can you get started learning about it?

在这次演讲中，我将分享一些我所学到的最重要的东西 从我作为一名文理学院学生和博士后研究员的经历来看， 广告分析师，数据科学训练营主任，现在是数据自由职业者 顾问. Find out what the biggest differences between academia and industry are, 作为一名数据科学家的工作是什么样的，如何制作一个杀手级的教学视频 以及你现在可以参加哪些课程来为自己的潜力做好准备 career leveraging data.

事件2: “Parking Functions: Choose Your Own Adventure,” a research talk

Monday, February 27, 2 p.m.

爱默生礼堂

摘要:考虑一个单向车道上有n个连续停车位的停车场 街道标号1至 n. 假设 n 每辆车都想在停车场一次停一辆车，每辆车都有一个首选的停车位 点. Each car coming into the lot initially tries to park in its preferred 点. 然而，如果一辆车的首选位置已经被占用，那么它将继续前进 in the street parking in the next available 点. Since the parking lot is along a 单行道，不能保证每辆车都能在行驶前停车 past the parking lot. 如果我们让 ai denote the preference of car i and all of the cars are able to park under these conditions, then the preference 列表(A1, a2，…，an)被称为 停车功能 (长度 n).  例如，(1,2,4,2,2)是一个停车函数，但(1,2,2,5,5)不是(您应该) convince yourself of this!). In this talk we provide an answer to the 问题 of how many 停车功能s of length n 我们认为有许多新的研究途径源于这一列举 问题.

Why did the dinosaurs go extinct, and 当? 我们怎么知道? Much of our knowledge of the history of life comes from the fossil record. But the fossil record is incomplete, 结果是， potentially misleading. How, then, can we learn anything about life on earth millions 多年前? In this talk I will discuss my research on how we can recognize mass extinctions --such as the one that killed the dinosaurs --from imperfect clues in the fossil record. Along the way we will explore some seemingly unrelated topics, including how the Allies estimated the strength of enemy forces during 二战.
