Technological and theoretical advances in all scientific disciplines ranging from Engineering to Sciences have provided us with numerous large scale datasets to analyze. A fundamental question is how extract low dimensional models that will reflect in an efficient manner the most-important states and dynamics of the system under study. To tackle with such problems this symposium confront with two challenges: that of dimensionality reduction and the problem of data mining. Algorithms and methods that have the potential to facilitate better understanding, predicting and modelling of large-scale data and images with important health, social and economical impact will be discussed.
