SUMMARY:
DESCRIPTION:A new exhibit\, “Cultural Bounty: The Beckstead • Lerma • Annala Collection\,” is a showpiece of the UTSA Art Collection. It features 48 artistic pieces from internationally renowned artists such as Andy Warhol and Robert Mapplethorpe and emerging local and Texas artists such as Sara Vanderbeek\, Fernando Andrade\, and UTSA alum Richard Armendariz (’95). The exhibit will run from Thursday\, August 1\, to Saturday\, November 2\, 2024\, at the UTSA Southwest Campus Russell Hill Rogers Galleries. \nCultural Bounty offers visitors a chance to experience a diverse array of powerful artistic expressions. Among the highlights are iconic creations such as “Electric Chair” and “Witch” by Warhol and a single-color photo “Ken Moody\, (Nude with Leaf) by Mapplethorpe. In addition to these illustrious names\, the exhibit will spotlight works created in San Antonio’s vibrant arts community. The exhibit will include works from Texas artists such as Raul Rene Gonzalez’s “O’Banion’s Car Wash” a pen on paper\, Andrade’s stone lithograph “A Jugar La Pinche Guerrita\,” Armendariz’s wood block print “Nocturne Healer I” Abraham Mojica’s “No Regrets” an acrylic on canvas\, painting of the three donors\, “Steve\, Danny\, and Alan.” \nPresented by UTSA Arts in partnership with the UTSA Libraries and the UTSA School of Art. \nRegister for the Opening ReceptionView the exhibit page

SUMMARY:SEMINAR - Using machine learning to generate neighborhood definitions: The application of hierarchical clustering and commuting zones at the Census Tract level. - Texas Research Data Center
DESCRIPTION:Presented By: Michael C. Lotspeich-Yadao\, University of Illinois\, Urbana-ChampaignVariation in the definitions of spatial units substantially impacts the validation of causal relationships between individual and ecological contexts. Acknowledging this significant influence of neighborhood definition on research outcomes\, our study seeks to introduce a scalable methodological innovation by synthesizing Tolbert and Killian’s (1987) proportional flow methodology with Kwan’s (2012a; 2012b; 2018) lessons in defining neighborhoods. Our new solution\, providing scalable Census tract-level ‘Commuting Zones’\, allows researchers to account for the scale of spatial units and their internal and inter-unit mobility patterns. \nCommuting zones are based on the daily travel between where people live and work. Our methodology uses this information\, derived from the public LEHD-LODES data\, to define neighborhood areas based on strong commuting patterns. This approach has the potential to yield a more accurate and meaningful understanding of human behavior and health outcomes\, calibrated to the realities of lived experiences rather than constrained by arbitrary administrative boundaries. Both researchers (interested in the neighborhood effect) and practitioners (interested in program and service delivery) can benefit from clearer approximations. \nRegister for this eventView more information

SUMMARY:WORKSHOP DAY 1- Machine learning fundamentals for socio-demographic researchers. - Texas Research Data Center
DESCRIPTION:Presented By: Michael C. Lotspeich-Yadao\, University of Illinois\, Urbana-ChampaignThe rapid evolution of computational power\, statistical methodologies\, and the proliferation of large datasets have spurred a significant rise in the application of machine learning (ML) techniques in various fields. For population researchers\, integrating data sources such as social media\, mobile phone data\, crowd-sourced information\, and remote sensing imagery with traditional demographic data has opened up new avenues for predicting population trends and enhancing causal inference. \nDespite their potential\, the swift advancement of machine learning methods and the associated specialized terminology can make these techniques challenging to grasp\, particularly for those more accustomed to traditional research methodologies. At its core\, machine learning automates the discovery of patterns and insights from data. This represents a pivotal shift in computer science\, where earlier intelligent systems primarily relied on static algorithms—fixed sets of instructions designed to produce specific outcomes from given inputs. These advancements offer powerful tools for monitoring\, understanding\, and predicting the factors that shape human well-being across different dimensions such as time\, space\, and demographic characteristics\, with applications spanning mortality\, health\, fertility\, social and economic processes\, and sustainable development. \nThis workshop aims to demystify the goals\, methodologies\, and applications of machine learning within the context of population research. Participants will engage in hands-on tutorials\, applying ML methods using R and data from the U.S. Census Bureau. While the course will provide an overview of the theoretical foundations of machine learning\, the primary focus is on practical application\, equipping attendees with the skills to employ these techniques effectively in their research. \nRegister for this eventView more information

SUMMARY:WORKSHOP DAY 2- Machine learning fundamentals for socio-demographic researchers. - Texas Research Data Center
DESCRIPTION:Presented By: Michael C. Lotspeich-Yadao\, University of Illinois\, Urbana-ChampaignThe rapid evolution of computational power\, statistical methodologies\, and the proliferation of large datasets have spurred a significant rise in the application of machine learning (ML) techniques in various fields. For population researchers\, integrating data sources such as social media\, mobile phone data\, crowd-sourced information\, and remote sensing imagery with traditional demographic data has opened up new avenues for predicting population trends and enhancing causal inference. \nDespite their potential\, the swift advancement of machine learning methods and the associated specialized terminology can make these techniques challenging to grasp\, particularly for those more accustomed to traditional research methodologies. At its core\, machine learning automates the discovery of patterns and insights from data. This represents a pivotal shift in computer science\, where earlier intelligent systems primarily relied on static algorithms—fixed sets of instructions designed to produce specific outcomes from given inputs. These advancements offer powerful tools for monitoring\, understanding\, and predicting the factors that shape human well-being across different dimensions such as time\, space\, and demographic characteristics\, with applications spanning mortality\, health\, fertility\, social and economic processes\, and sustainable development. \nThis workshop aims to demystify the goals\, methodologies\, and applications of machine learning within the context of population research. Participants will engage in hands-on tutorials\, applying ML methods using R and data from the U.S. Census Bureau. While the course will provide an overview of the theoretical foundations of machine learning\, the primary focus is on practical application\, equipping attendees with the skills to employ these techniques effectively in their research. \nRegister for this eventView more information
