Data Analysis, Simulation, Imaging, and Visualization Center of Economic Excellence
Inception: About the Center: The Center will seek better ways to analyze, model, and process large amounts of data to make it understandable and useable. While modern technology has made possible the collection of huge quantities of data, this data is not useful unless it can be turned into knowledge—through a mechanism to extract, process, and interpret data so that it can be used to inform decision makers. This is an issue that touches nearly every scientific discipline today, including engineering, chemistry, biology, and medicine. The Center in Data Analysis, Simulation, Imaging, and Visualization will design innovative algorithms that can improve the flow and interpretation of data collected by a variety of advanced equipment, such as electron microscopes, earth remote sensing satellites, and supercomputer hydrodynamic simulations. These algorithmic designs could be licensed for use for both fundamental and applied research within the academic, government, and private sectors. Start-up companies focused on processing and analyzing data within a particular field, such as DNA sequencing analysis, could also be created. The Center focuses on specific high-priority areas including inline data processing, multi-sensor data acquisition, tissue modeling, atomic scale imaging, and bioimaging. The Center aims to create relationships between academia and industry to attract talent and knowledge-based businesses to the state.
