FSU Data Science Program

Welcome to the official X account for the Data Science Program at Florida State University.

[FSU Arts & Sciences @FSUartssciences]

We couldn't be more proud of Xian Mallory, a @FloridaState assistant professor in @FSUComputerSci who took home the $100,000 grand prize from @ReliaQuest! 🏆

During #FSUDiscoveryDays' “The Quest for What’s Next!” competition on Monday, Mallory pitched Sage, a startup designed to protect personal data, to a panel of judges.

Two other teams, both from @FSUartssciences, took home $50,000 each! Olmo Zavala Romero, an assistant professor in @FSUSciComp, earned additional funding for his startup Ariadne, while Xin Zhang, a professor in @StatisticsFSU, benefited his ambitions after his presentation, “Protecting the Rare Label: Error-Controlled Classification for Data Sensitivity.”

“If you ask a large language model what two plus two is, it will likely say four — not because it calculated what two plus two equals, but because the model recognizes four as the most commonly found answer to that question. Our goal is to develop a model that can instead apply more meaningful quantitative reasoning to better comprehend numerical data.”

Michael Gubanov, an associate professor in @FSUComputerSci, has earned an @NSF CAREER Award!

This award will support his work to develop a new type of AI model that better calculates and uses numeric data, including large-scale healthcare data for applications in cancer research.

Gubanov is working alongside @MoffittNews to apply the model within the healthcare and cancer treatment fields.
