Data science and optimization are increasingly intertwined as both focus on developing computational and methodological approaches to tackling large and otherwise complex datasets. Optimization is primarily concerned with accuracy, computational efficiency, and robustness while data science emphasizes achieving effective results on real datasets. Although some data science approaches involve the implicit optimization of objective functions, there remains a dearth of work that brings advanced optimization techniques to bear on data science problems. The goal of the Fields Focus Program on Data Science and Optimization held in November 2019 at the Fields Institute in Toronto, was to bring together researchers in data science and optimization, both theoretical and applied, in an effort to bridge the fields and stimulate cross-disciplinary interaction and collaboration.
In the spirit of the program, this volume compiles recent development and connections in the fields of data science and optimization, and the ways in which they overlap. It features novel results and state-of-the-art surveys as well as open problems.

System requirements
File format: PDF
Copy protection: Watermark-DRM (Digital Rights Management)
System requirements:
- Computer (Windows; MacOS X; Linux): Use the free software Adobe Reader, Adobe Digital Editions, or any other PDF viewer of your choice (see eBook Help).
- Tablet/Smartphone (Android; iOS): Install the free app Adobe Digital Editions or another reading app for eBooks, e.g., PocketBook (see eBook Help).

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
This eBook uses Watermark-DRM, a „soft” copy protection. This means that there are no technical restrictions to prevent illegal distribution. However, there is a personalised watermark embedded in the eBook that can be used to identify the purchaser of the eBook in the event of misuse and to provide evidence for legal purposes.
