[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-woo] Busan City and the National Institute for Mathematical Sciences will hold the ‘Industrial and Medical Mathematics Academy’ for four days from the 18th to the 21st at the Asti Hotel in Busan.

This academy was organized to enhance the value of problem-solving in the fields of industrial and medical mathematics and to disseminate the know-how.

It is an event aimed at training industrial mathematics experts through lectures on basic theories of mathematical modeling, time series analysis, image and text analysis, and practical exercises on solving simulated industrial problems, targeting students and corporate officials interested in problem-solving in these fields.

Held for the first time in Busan, this academy will feature lectures including ▲case studies on COVID-19 spread prediction research results, introduction to infectious disease spread mathematical modeling, and example exercises using ‘R’, ▲introductions to solutions of medical and industrial problems requested by Busan medical companies, hospitals, industries, and public institutions to mathematicians, along with example exercises using Python, ▲lectures focusing on solving industrial and medical problems of Busan companies using combinatorics.

Additionally, practical exercises on solving industrial problems such as ▲defining and solving industrial mathematics problems using shared bicycle data and ▲building a flowering number determination program from plant image data will also be conducted.

Busan City and the National Institute for Mathematical Sciences signed a business agreement in June last year to foster the medical and healthcare industry, and since the opening of the Busan Medical Mathematics Center in April this year, they have been conducting research cooperation and consulting support with companies, hospitals, and universities located in Busan.

Shin Chang-ho, Director of the Future Industry Bureau of Busan City, said, “This event will help increase the interest and understanding of young researchers regarding industrial and medical problems of Busan companies and medical institutions, which can assist in discovering and solving additional problems in the future.”
