London Clojurians Talk: High Performance Data With Clojure (by Chris Nuernberger)

THIS IS AN ONLINE EVENT
[Connection details will be shared 1h before the start time]

The London Clojurians are happy to present:

Title: High Performance Data With Clojure
Speaker: Chris Nuernberger
Time: 2021-06-08 @ 18:30 (London time)
Local time: https://time.is/1830_08_June_2021_in_London/ (click here for local time)

Chris Nuernberger (https://github.com/cnuernber/) will be presenting
a talk about his work with `dtype-next` (https://github.com/cnuernber/dtype-next)
and `tech.ml.dataset` (https://github.com/techascent/tech.ml.dataset)
the new high performance data processing system for Clojure. His talk
will cover the axiomatic basis of array programming, some interesting
high performance primitives, and how representing your problem with a
column-major map-of-arrays design gives you some interesting
properties as compared to your standard Clojure row-major
sequence-of-maps design.

Chris got his start programming high performance 3D graphics in the
early 2000's. He has worked extensively in GIS, 3D graphics, and
machine learning building such things as graphical playback-style
debuggers for physics simulations systems, Cinema 4d-style graphics
editors, GIS tools including research into (at the time) new lossless
compression technologies and national scale facial recognition
systems. He started playing with Clojure in 2008 and has been working
in Clojure full time since 2015.
