The Art of Data Science in Finance and Economics
Over the past few years, there has been a sustained “bull market” in data science both as a profession and as an academic field. AI and machine-learning techniques are augmenting classical statistical, econometric, and optimization methods. Given the inherent unpredictability of the domain and the scarcity of correct answers/”gold standard” labels, there is an art to developing, evaluating, and deploying data science methods and applications in this field. Many subtleties—e.g., data span, architecture, and parameter choices—must be addressed. New methods underpinning robust systems must also incorporate dynamic, diverse data along with domain knowledge and heuristics.

This Patterns special collection aims to bring together thought leaders from academia, public and private sector, showcasing original research articles and perspectives pertaining to new developments and thinking in finance and economics.

Topics in this special issue include but are not limited to:

  • Novel algorithms and architectures targeted towards more-responsible data science practices (which minimize bias and promote explainability and accountability);
  • Generation, capture, and integration of relevant data (incl. alternative data) and metadata suitable for AI applications in financial services and economics;
  • Novel AI techniques (reinforcement learning, DRL, transfer & federated learning, etc.) and their role in trading, investments, banking, payment-processing and micro- and macroeconomics;
  • Handling noise in data; reasoning with uncertainty;
  • Reproducibility of results; data snooping, synthetic data sets;
  • Applications to cryptocurrencies (and the digital asset class, in general);
  • Benchmarking of AI tools and software in financial services (e.g., high-frequency trading, fairness in lending or resource allocation);
  • New optimization techniques & quantum machine learning (as applied to economics and finance);
  • Illustrative applications at the intersection of UN SDGs with finance and economics; ESG issues; and
  • Human-machine teaming for risk management.

We welcome manuscripts presenting original research studies and (practitioner-oriented) perspectives from a wide array of disciplines and professional contexts. Manuscripts should be prepared according to the Guide for Authors and should be submitted online. Please mention in the cover letter that you are submitting for the “The Art of Data Science (in Finance and Economics) special collection in the journal Patterns.

CFP: CVPR’22 ActivityNet Guest Task: ActEV SRL

March 21st, 2022 Daniela Lopez de Luise
The ActEV Self-Reported Leaderboard (SRL) Challenge is a guest task under the CVPR’22 ActivityNet Challenge (http://activity-net.org/challenges/2022/). The Challenge is a self-reported leaderboard (take-home) evaluation; participants download a ActEV SRL testset, run their activity detection algorithms on the test set using their own hardware platforms, and then submit their system output to the evaluation server for scoring results, we will invite the top two teams to give oral presentations at the CVPR’22 ActivityNet workshop.

 

Websites


Who

NIST invites all organizations, particularly universities and corporations, to submit their system output.  The evaluation is open worldwide. Participation is free. NIST does not provide funds to participants.

 

Schedule

March 15, 2022: CVPR'22 ActivityNet ActEV SRL Challenge Opens

May 20, 2022: Deadline for ActEV SRL results submission.

June 02, 2021: Top two teams on the ActivityNET ActEV SRL leaderboard invited to give oral presentations at the CVPR’22 ActivityNet workshop based on the results submission deadline (May 20, 2022).

June 19, 2022: CVPR’22 ActivityNet workshop

 

Dataset

Training data is from the Multiview Extended Video with Activities (MEVA) dataset [mevadata.org]. The public MEVA dataset includes hundreds of hours of data from the same cameras at the same facility, which can be used for training. If you register for ActEV you can download the MEVA dataset for free; info on how to download the data is on the data tab actev.nist.gov/srl#tab_data]. Expanded annotations are now available for public MEVA KF dataset.

 

ActEV SRL Test Datasets: The CVPR'22 ActivityNet ActEV SRL test dataset has been released and is the same as the WACV'22 HADCV ActEV SRL test dataset.
