Network topology and recovery delay thresholds determine cascading failure vulnerability in sports systems - Nature

AbstractData science seems to be everywhere these days. This talk will discuss examples of data science being applied to music and meal planning, as well as introducing publicly available resources for exploring culturally motivated data. This talk will delve deeply into the multidisciplinary field of Music Information Retrieval (MIR) motivated by the comparisons that we, as humans, make about music and the various contexts of these comparisons. Specifically, we discuss the aligned hierarchies, which is a structure-based representation that can be used for comparing songs, and new extensions of aligned hierarchies that leverage ideas from topological data analysis. The talk will then pivot to how we can think about meal planning as “playlists of recipes” and the data-based challenges associated with building a database of meal plans. BioKatherine M. Kinnaird is a computational researcher working at the intersection of machine learning, mathematics and cultural analytics. Currently she is an Associate Professor of Computer Science and Statistical & Data Sciences at Smith College as well as Chair of the CS Department.

Ottawa Senators goaltender Linus Ullmark was pulled in the third period of their game against the Florida Panthers after suffering a lower-boy injury after making a save. Per Postmedia’s Bruce Garrioch, Senators head coach Travis Green confirmed after the game that Ullmark suffered a lower-body injury, but could not confirm the severity of the injury, only to say that Ullmark will be evaluated on Thursday. With 16:25 remaining in the game, and the Senators leading 3-1, Ullmark extended his leg to make a routine deflection on a puck sliding toward the net. After deflecting the puck out of the crease with his right pad, Ullmark slumped over. He was tended to by the Senators training staff after play was whistled dead. Ullmark was eventually helped off the ice and taken to the locker room. Backup netminder Samuel Ersson took his spot in net in relief. Ullmark allowed a goal in the first period when he was beaten by Brady Tkachuk on the power play in Tkachuk’s first return to the Canadian Tire Centre as a visitor with the Panthers. The 33-year-old Ullmark entered this game with a sparkling 1.33 goals-against average and a .945 save percentage in seven starts on the young season.
