17:20-17:50—"Advanced tools for analyzing complex datasets across diverse domains" with Leila Barmoudeh from UiB
This talk explores cutting-edge methodologies in spatial data analysis and high-dimensional feature selection, with applications in environmental and biomedical research. We will first delve into spatial neural networks, emphasizing their role in capturing spatial dependencies within soil data to enhance predictive modeling and geostatistical insights. Next, we will transition to feature selection and classification techniques for gene expression data, addressing the challenges of dimensionality reduction and the identification of biologically significant markers. By integrating these advanced approaches, participants will gain a deeper understanding of tools for analyzing complex datasets across diverse domains, fostering interdisciplinary learning and practical implementation.
17:50-18:20—"A Practical Chatbot with RAG" with Dani Marås from Kantega
After previous experience with developing the REN Assistant for REN – Norway’s leading knowledge center for the power transmission grid – Kantega received a request from NEK (Norwegian Electrotechnical Committee) to create a similar solution for them. This involved managing standards at global, European, and Norwegian levels within electrical engineering and electrical communication. In this presentation, Dani will explain how he addressed this increased complexity, and how Databricks simplified his work on the ETL part of the project.
