Incoming this academic year are several new academic appointments in Data Science / AI, many within the Faculty of Environment. This event, hosted by Leeds Institute for Data Analytics, will introduce these appointments to relevant colleagues/groups at the University.
The application of AI to data from multiple sources, including health records, smart devices and video for monitoring patient health is a growing area with huge opportunity. We bring together experts in the area for a workshop to discuss open problems and potential collaborations. Schedule: Prof Eiman Kanjo Prof Max Little Prof Chris Yau Local...
Online (some in person places available – please contact us direct) Novel data linkages, such as shopping data and cohort studies, offer great potential to answer important questions about behaviour and health. But do they lend themselves well to Causal Inference? At this workshop, the Turing Causal Inference Interest Group and the Novel Data Linkages for...
The 4th instalment of our data science mini-series showcasing current research projects here at the Leeds Institute for Data Analytics (LIDA). This weeks features 10 minute lightning talks from three data scientists on using data analytics to inform the prevention of Young People Not in Employment, Education or Training (NEET) with Q&A. TALK 1...

Chairs - Dustin Foley, Research Software Engineer at the Consumer Data Research Centre (CDRC) & Dr...
Abstract: Numerical modelling is a reliable tool for flood simulations, but accurate solutions are computationally expensive. In the recent years, researchers have explored data-driven methodologies based on neural networks to overcome this limitation. However, most models are used only for a specific case study and disregard the dynamic evolution of the flood wave. This limits...

Abstract: Free text comments (FTC) of patient-reported outcome measures (PROMS) offer invaluable insight into health-related quality of life (HRQoL). However, extracting meaningful information from FTC is challenging due to the time-consuming nature of manual analysis methods (the common analysis method). However, weakly supervised text classification (WSTC) can be a valuable method of analysis to classify...
We are excited to announce the formation of a new Visualization Interest Group (VIG) in the Leeds Institute for Data Analytics (LIDA), led by Prof. Roy Ruddle (Computing) and Dr Roger Beecham (Geography). The VIG aims to foster a friendly environment for exploring the multifaceted world of visualization. Our scope spans the entire pyramid of...
