Welcome to the webpage of the TORI Workshop!
About
The TORI workshop is an invitation-only, retreat-style (Dagstuhl-like) workshop on topological methods for data analysis and visualization. It is funded by the ERC project TORI and organized to mark the end of this project. Its goal is to summarize and communicate around the major results of the community over the last five years in the fields of topological data description and analysis, and to discuss the most vibrant perspectives for the future.
Format
The event is organized as a 3.5 day workshop. Each day starts with a distinct distinguished keynote. The rest of the day is organized around three 1-hour sessions of short talks (typically, three talks of 15 minutes), with several 1-hour breakouts, to favor informal discussions, meetups and relaxation. Lunches and dinners would be provided on site, to also contribute to a friendly and collaborative atmosphere.
Location
The workshop will take place at the hotel Le Carnot in Wimereux, a beautiful and historical seaside resort on the Opal Cost (in the north of France, pictures below).
