Abstract
SIAM Review, Volume 67, Issue 1, Page 208-209, March 2025. The book Mathematical Pictures at a Data Science Exhibition aims to introduce the reader to the many mathematical ideas that congregate under the ever-expanding umbrella of data science. Given the meteoric rise of this field and the immense speed at which it often moves, this book acts as a welcome road map for graduate students and researchers in the field. Given its focus on theory, the book should be most appreciated by mathematicians as well as theoretical statisticians and computer scientists. While algorithms are the main focus of the book, the exposition is by no means a hands-on tutorial in data science, but rather an introductory text on the theoretical ideas behind data science algorithms and problems.
期刊介绍:
Survey and Review feature papers that provide an integrative and current viewpoint on important topics in applied or computational mathematics and scientific computing. These papers aim to offer a comprehensive perspective on the subject matter.
Research Spotlights publish concise research papers in applied and computational mathematics that are of interest to a wide range of readers in SIAM Review. The papers in this section present innovative ideas that are clearly explained and motivated. They stand out from regular publications in specific SIAM journals due to their accessibility and potential for widespread and long-lasting influence.
