2024 NSF HDR Ecosystem Conference
NSF’s Harnessing the Data Revolution (HDR) Big Idea is a national-scale activity founded in 2016 to enable new modes of data-driven discovery that address fundamental questions at the frontiers of science and engineering. By engaging NSF's research community in the pursuit of fundamental research in data science and engineering, the ecosystem of HDR Institutes, Data Science Corps (DSC), and Transdisciplinary Research in Principles of Data Science (TRIPODS) strive to provide a cohesive, federated, national-scale approach to research data infrastructure, and the development of a 21st-century data-capable workforce.
The 3rd annual conference of the NSF HDR Ecosystem will be held on the campus of the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign from the 9th to the 12th of September 2024.
The main goals workshop are:
-
Build and strengthen productive, inclusive, and positive relationships within the HDR ecosystem and the broader data-intensive research community.
-
Provide a forum to share accomplishments, goals and plans of HDR ecosystem entities.
-
Assess current and planned cross-cutting activities that address shared challenges and seek new opportunities to sustain and grow the HDR ecosystem and advance data-intensive research
-
Assess the landscape of institutes, projects and activities within data science, AI, industry and infrastructure to advance a vision of how the HDR ecosystem is an integral part of a broader coherent ecosystem of AI and data-intensive research.
- Formally launch the HDR Machine Learning Challenge.
