ETH Foundations of Data Science (ETH-FDS) is a cross-departmental initiative at ETH Zurich which started in January 2019. Its main focus is research-oriented in the area of foundations of data science, at the intersection between information sciences, machine learning and statistics.
The foundations of data science are in computer, information and mathematical sciences, machine learning and statistics. The recently emerging areas and applications call for new fundamental research and with this also for new educational curricula. Contributions to the foundations of data science have an impact on the upcoming decades: new methodological developments and mathematical theory will impact many modern application areas and will radiate to a massive number of users. ETH-FDS aims to bring together existing excellence and expertise to further strengthen top research in the foundations of data science across different departments of ETH Zurich.
