SUMMARY:NYC DS3 Seminar - How Can Machine-Learning Methods Help to Make Scientific Inferences?
DESCRIPTION:Free\, open to the public\, and does not require registration. \n\n\nWednesday\, October 9\, 2019\n\n5:00 PM – 5:30 PM: Welcome\n5:30 PM – 6:30 PM: Talk\n\n \nSchapiro CEPSR – Davis Auditorium\n\n530 West 120th Street\, 4th Floor\nNew York\, NY 10027\n\n \nTalk Abstract: Machine learning in the form of standard supervised classification algorithms is not all that useful or productive in the natural sciences\, because the (effective) goals of these algorithms aren’t very similar to the goals of scientific inquiry. However\, the ML community has delivered great ideas and methods for building\, fitting\, and validating extremely flexible models. I argue that if we want to exploit the good things about ML but achieve truly scientific goals\, we need to do two things: We need to augment or modify the (currently trivial) causal structure of the ML methods to represent our very strong domain-specific beliefs about how the data are generated. And we need to be careful to use ML methods only in the parts of our problems for which we don’t care about the latent structure or parameters (that is\, use them to model nuisances\, not use them to do everything). I give examples from stellar astrophysics where adding ML components into larger causal models has created new scientific capabilities.\n \nSpeaker: Professor David W. Hogg\, NYU|MPIA|Flatiron\n \nSpeaker Biography: After a Ph.D. in Physics from Caltech and a few years at the Institute for Advanced Study\, Hogg came to New York University in 2001 and was granted tenure there in 2007. His work at NYU has ranged from fundamental cosmological measurements to stellar dynamics to planet search and characterization. His work includes a significant engineering component. He spends a part of each year at the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy in Heidelberg\, Germany\, where he is a visiting member of the research staff\, and a part of each week at the Flatiron Institute of the Simons Foundation\, where he is a group leader.

SUMMARY:2019 Social Enterprise Conference
DESCRIPTION:OPEN TO ALL \nREGISTER HERE \n\nColumbia University\nAlfred Lerner Hall\n2920 Broadway\, New York\, NY 10027\n8:00 AM–5:30 PM \nRegister Now for Early Bird Pricing*\nStudent Tickets $25 ($50 after August 31)\nGeneral Admission $100 ($175 after August 31)\n*No code required. \nThe business and investor community once questioned whether it could afford to prioritize social impact. The consensus is now clear—how can businesses afford not to? The Millennial and Gen Z generations are driving trends in impact investing\, using their purchasing power to demand change\, and seeking employers that are socially conscious. As a result\, funders and the organizations they invest in are directing their attention not only to the bottom line\, but also to how business and financing models can be aligned to positively contribute to society. \nThis headline event\, located in the finance capital of the world\, provides a unique opportunity to tap into the vibrant ecosystem of capital for impact through the lens of philanthropy\, impact investing\, ESG\, and social venture and business examples. Social impact leaders in business\, government\, nonprofit\, and philanthropy will speak to how they are changing the way we think about how capital is sourced and used to generate sustainable solutions to global\, systemic challenges. Hear where opportunities exist to pursue future careers of impact on both the financing and implementation sides of social impact capital. \nJoin us on October 11\, 2019 as we bring together industry leaders\, investors\, philanthropists\, professionals\, faculty\, students\, and alumni to share best practices and engender new ideas surrounding the intersection of capital and society. Speaker presentations will catalyze conversations of change and embolden a generation to take risks in order to create a world in which everyone\, regardless of where they were born\, has the equal opportunity to succeed in creating a better life for themselves\, their families\, and their communities. \nThis conference was founded by Columbia Business School’s Social Enterprise Club members in 2002\, and has grown to engage students across Columbia University\, as the pre-eminent forum to explore and address the ever-changing topics of social justice and innovation from the lens of business solutions.
