Machine Learning-enabled Analytics Machine learning methods such as anomaly detection, dictionary learning, reinforcement learning, similarity learning, and transfer learning must be scalable to massive Nowak, data Murphy, scales. McKeown Temporal, Multi-Scale and Statistical Models Mathematical, computational and statistical models are needed to integrate multimodal data collected at many different time and Murphy length scales. Integration of Heterogeneous Data Integration of numerical data, symbolic data, structured data, and streaming data at various stages of the analysis pipeline. Carley, Murphy Data Scrubbing, Wrangling and Provenance Tracking Automation of data preparation steps such as normalization, calibration, outlier treatment, Soparkar and annotation. Data Privacy and Cybersecurity The tradeoffs between data privacy/security and data utility must be understood in the context of the specific application, e.g., medicine, Goroff transportation, or business analytics, throughout the data storage, management, and analysis pipeline.
