Text Mining in Regulated Domains

"Textual Data, Law & Finance" Workshop, organized by Karl Branting (Principal AI Engineer at MITRE) and Ted Sichelman (Professor of Law at USD):  A guest blog at Stanford Law School Blogs, February, 2016.

Special thanks to Monica Bay, a journalist, lawyer, provocateur and a CodeX fellow, for the invitation to contribute to the CodeX blog.

Mathematics: A Universal Language

 

Algebraic Topology 101

Algebraic Topology 101, Jana Sukkarieh, starting November 2018.

Abstract Algebra, Topology and Category Theory were my favorite subjects at University. In this first Mathematics series, I would like to introduce “Algebraic Topology”. It requires the introduction of Topology and Abstract Algebra as prerequisites, but goes much more beyond these two branches of Mathematics. One reason I am interested in re-visiting “Algebraic Topology” is that it has many uses and applications in Computer Science, in general, and in Artificial Intelligence and Cyber Security, in particular.


Information Systems Security

 

Cryptology

Cryptology 101, Jana Sukkarieh, starting March 2019.

Cryptology is a coin with two heads: Cryptography is the art and science of multi-party confidential communication through an insecure channel. The other side of the coin is the domain of cryptanalysis, which is the art and science of deciphering those communications.

In cryptography, mechanisms based on mathematical concepts are designed to ensure the three fundamental desiderata of information systems security: confidentiality, integrity, and availability (CIA). Cryptanalysis studies the mechanisms of cryptography in order to break them. 


Biodiversity & Humane Design

Nature-Inspired Solutions/Algorithms

Fruit fly brains inform search engines of the future . Research by Saket Navlakha, Sanjoy Dasgupta, Charles Stevens @ Salk Institute

 

 
 
I conquer the world with words,
conquer the mother tongue,
verbs, nouns, syntax.
I sweep away the beginning of things
and with a new language
that has the music of water, the message of fire
I light the coming age
and stop time in your eyes
and wipe away the line
that separates
time from this single moment.
— Nizar Qabbani
