Computational Data Science Wiki Page

Welcome to computational data science Wiki page. We are a multi-disciplinary group at McCombs. We meet biweekly to discuss recent papers on computational data science and applied machine learning. In this Wiki page, we share information about our schedules, group members and other resources (e.g., relevant online seminars, grant opportunities, and conferences). 

Meeting 

Time: 4:30 – 5:30 pm CST Friday (bi-weekly).
