Registration
Abstracts
A number of contributed talks will be hosted by the workshop. Please register and tell us whether you want to speak and/or publish an abstract. The deadline for abstract submission is 15.03.2018. A decision will be made by 15.03.2018 for those who have registered by 20.02.2018 and by 31.03.2018 for the others.
Please note that if you need a visa and even do not suppose to give a talk, you should register as soon as possible. Of course in most cases, there will be enough time, even if you register in the beginning of April. However, in some cases, Russian authorities may spend up to one month to issue an invitation letter. Then it will take a week to deliver it (we will do it by DHL, but let's be careful as well). Finally, it will take a week for your embassy of Russia to issue your visa. So you should plan accurately your time. Please also note that it is better to book in advance a day of your visit to your embassy of Russia. Anyway we will do our best to help you, so feel free to contact us and ask any questions! We are looking forward to meeting you in Russia.
We are planning to have on Tuesday an afternoon "industrial session", wh ere we will invite both our speakers and our industrial partners to discuss together possible collaborations.

CatBoost: unbiased boosting with categorical features
Video
Presentation
I will discuss the key algorithmic techniques behind CatBoost, a state-of-the-art open-source gradient boosting toolkit. Their combination leads to CatBoost outperforming other publicly available boosting implementations in terms of quality on a variety of datasets. Two critical algorithmic advances introduced in CatBoost are the implementation of ordered boosting, a permutation-driven alternative to the classic algorithm, and an innovative algorithm for processing categorical features. Both techniques were created to fight a prediction shiftcaused by a special kind of target leakage present in all currently existing implementations of gradient boosting algorithms. In this paper, we provide a detailed analysis of this problem and demonstrate that proposed algorithms solve it effectively, leading to excellent empirical results.

Some graph optimization and cross-layer network challenges of Huawei carrier business
Video
In our report we mention just two topics of numerous Huawei research agenda. In the first, we will show that the Channel Decoder efficiency requires some graph search engine, which, in the case of even average modulation (QAM16 and above), leads to an unaffordable complexity. To reduce this complexity by a reliable algorithm is a challenge.
The second topic introduces the challenge of Wireless Network in serving the modern high performance applications, like Video-On-Demand services with high resolution. To make these services successful, a new SAND standard has been recently proposed. This standard establishes a safe communication between application, mobile device, and wireless network. Deployment of this standard will need a mutual understanding between IT companies, network operators, mobile device producers, and telecom equipment vendors like Huawei.
