Title：Exact Data Reduction for Big Data
Abstract: Recent technological innovations have enabled data collection of unprecedented size and complexity. Examples include web text data, social media data, gene expression images, neuroimages, and genome-wide association study (GWAS) data. Such data have incredible potential to address complex scientific and societal questions, however analysis of these data poses major challenges for the scientists. As an emerging and powerful tool for analyzing massive collections of data, data reduction in terms of the number of variables and/or the number of samples has attracted tremendous attentions in the past few years, and has achieved great success in a broad range of applications. The intuition of data reduction is based on the observation that many real-world data with complex structures and billions of variables and/or samples can usually be well explained by a few most relevant explanatory features and/or samples. Most existing methods for data reduction are based on sampling or random projection, and the final model based on the reduced data is an approximation of the true (original) model. In this talk, I will present fundamentally different approaches for data reduction in that there is no approximation in the model, that is, the final model constructed from the reduced data is identical to the original model constructed from the complete data. Finally, I will use several real world examples to demonstrate the potential of exact data reduction for analyzing large-scale data.
