========================================================================================
Due to the availability of high-throughput platforms (e.g. next generation
sequencing, microarray and mass spectrometry) and clinical diagnostic tools
(e.g. medical imaging), a recent trend in Bioinformatics and Biomedicine is
the ever-increasing production of experimental and clinical data.
Considering the complex analysis pipelines often used in biomedical
research, there is a main bottleneck that involves the storage,
integration, and analysis of experimental data, as well as their
correlation and integration with publicly available data banks. While
parallel computing and Grid computing may offer the computational power and
the storage to face this overwhelming availability of data, Cloud Computing
is a key technology to hide the complexity of computing infrastructures, to
reduce the cost of the data analysis task, and especially to change the
overall model of biomedical research and health provision.
High-performance infrastructures may offer the huge data storage needed to
store experimental and biomedical data, while parallel computing can be
used for basic pre-processing (e.g. parallel BLAST, mpiBLAST) and for more
advanced analysis (e.g. parallel data mining). In such a scenario, novel
parallel architectures (e.g. CELL processors, GPUs, FPGA, hybrid CPU/FPGA)
coupled with emerging programming models may overcome the limits posed by
conventional computers to the mining and exploration of large amounts of
data. On the other hand, these technologies yet require great investments
by biomedical and clinical institutions and are based on a traditional
model where users often need to be aware and face different management
problems, such as hardware and software management, data storage, software
ownership, and prohibitive costs (different professional-level applications
in the biomedical domain have an high starting cost that prevent many small
laboratories to use them).
The Cloud Computing technology, that is able to offer scalable costs and
increased reachability, availability and easiness of application use, and
possibility to enforce collaboration among scientists, is already changing
the business model in different sectors and now it has begun to be adopted
in the bioinformatics and biomedical domains. However, many problems remain
to be solved, such as availability and safety of the data, privacy-related
issues, availability of software platforms for rapid deployment, and the
execution and billing of biomedical applications.
The goal of ParBio 2019 is to bring together scientists in the fields of
high performance and cloud computing, computational biology and medicine to
discuss, among the others, the parallel implementation of bioinformatics
and biomedical applications and problems and opportunities of moving
biomedical and health applications on the cloud. Moreover, big data
analytics issues in healthcare and bioinformatics will be addressed. The
workshop will focus on research issues, problems and opportunities of
moving biomedical and health applications on the cloud, as well as on the
opportunity to define guidelines and minimum requirements for a Biomedical
Cloud. Moreover, the workshop will discuss about parallel and distributed
management and analysis of molecular and clinical data that more and more
need to be integrated and analyzed in a joint way.

Dear Professor Jimmy Yiming,
VISUALIZATION is very important for your endeavors. Would you be
interested in my giving a keynote talk or tutorial on "Visual
Analytics for High Dimensional Data"? The visual exploration and
analysis of data together with the applications to multivariate
problems are very relevant and important to this conference. For
further information please see (visuals attached)
http://www.amazon.com/Parallel-Coordinates-Multidimensional-Geometry-Applic…
Among others this book was praised by Stephen Hawking who attended my
lectures at Cambridge. The multidimensional visualization methodology
described has been widely applied to the exploration and
classification of real multivariate(some with hundreds of variables)
datasets with stunning results (Ch. 10). There are other applications
to Automatic Collision Avoidance for Air Traffic, Decision Support for
Complex Systems, Multiobjective Optimization, Network Topology
Visualization and Analysis, Intelligent Process Control. The patterns
representing multivariate/multidimensional RELATIONS are compact and
unambiguous providing a Topology for Proximity leading towards the
visualization of BIG DATA.

Artificial Intelligence (IJCAI) 2019. The conference will take place on
the 10-16th of August 2019 in Macao, China.

*** INTRODUCTION ***
Recent cybersecurity incidents involving malware demonstrated how
serious the consequences can be for both individual users and large
organizations. McAfee report on malware threats shows that over four
quarters of 2017 there were identified 690 millions of malware samples,
which is an extreme number considering amount of manual work required to
process even a tiny fraction of those. Many malware analysis across
different security organizations spent hours trying to analyze and
understand functionality of malware. At the same time overwhelming
amount of malicious threats and malware forms cause considerable delays
from the time malware has been discovered to the time a corresponding
efficient signature was created. Moreover, the malware infection is no
longer limited to personal computers, but now also hits such components
as Internet of Things and Industrial Control Systems, which were
previously unaffected and the cybersecirty impact was underestimated.
From before Machine Learning and Computational Intelligence have
demonstrated advantages of application in cybersecurity-related tasks.
In particular, many researchers have been employing such techniques to
mitigate obfuscation, polymorphous and encryption while building
intelligent malware detection mechanisms. Intelligent malware analysis
and detection is an emerging topic of cybersecurity that has to go in
line with advancement of malware developers and consistent presence of
zero-day attacks. Our focus is not only to build and effective Machine
Learning-based malware protection, but also comprise models that are to
be understood by human experts. Therefore, we believe that Machine
Learning-aided human-oriented approaches will ensure timely response to
malware threats. Moreover, those can serve as a stepping stone in faster
and more efficient analysis of novel malware as well as similarity-based
identification of adversarial attacks on Machine Learning.
*** PROPOSED TOPICS ***
Note that the topics are not limited to this proposed list.
1. Automated pre-processing phase
- Efficient features identification and construction
- Novel approaches for malware categorization
- Human-understandable characterization of malware
- Indicators of Compromise as successful identification tool
- Information Fusion and Open Threats Intelligence
2. Advanced computational methods
- Deep Learning models
- Similarity-based analysis to avoid evasion
- Big Data-oriented optimization of detection
- Hybrid Intelligence and Soft Computing
- Secure and robust models to avoid adversarial attacks
3. Combating malware in a wild
- End-point implementations
- Novel malware collection and sharing platforms
- Applications in Decision Support Systems
- Human reasoning in Machine Learning-aided malware detection
- Real-time defence and online learning
- Explainable rules derived from train Machine Learning models

Challenges in High Performance Computing
2-6 September 2019
Location:
Hanna Neumann Building (145),
The Australian National University,
Canberra, ACT, Australia
Website:
https://maths.anu.edu.au/news-events/events/challenges-high-performance-com…
About:
Scientific computing is often termed as the "third way to do science",
alongside theory and experiments. The focus of the workshop is to
investigate the current challenges of solving large scale problems on
high performance computers. To achieve optimal performance it is
critical to incorporate techniques that are at the forefront of both
the mathematical and computer sciences. Consequently, the workshop has
a strong multidisciplinary focus covering the five important areas of:
Algorithms, Applications, Middleware, Resilience and Software.
Each day of the conference will address one of these topics. A review
lecture will be given in the morning by an eminent researcher in that
area. Participants are invited to give more specialised talks in the
afternoon, followed by a discussion session.
The major aim of the workshop is to foster cooperation and
communication between members of each of these five different
communities, as well as to strongly encourage student participation.
Invited Speakers:
Algorithms: David Keyes, King Abdullah University of Science and Technology
Resilience: Ulrich Ruede, Friedrich-Alexander-University of Erlangen-Nuremberg
Software: Lois Curfman McInnes, Argonne National Laboratory
Applications: Raquel Salmeron, Airservices Australia
Middleware: George Boscila, University of Tennessee
Organising committee:
Brendan Harding, University of Adelaide
Stuart Hawkins, Macquarie University
