Applied Math Seminar

Title: Tropical Linear Series Abstract: In this talk I'll attempt to give a friendly and example-driven introduction to the theory of linear series on tropical curves. While in some respects mirroring […]

Join us for the first talk in the joint seminar with CCMS Applied Math and the Universidad Nacional de Colombia Title Serre Conjecture. Geometric interpretation of the Quillen-Suslin Theorem. Abstract: […]

This is the continuation of the semester's joint seminar with the Universidad Nacional de Colombia-Manizales. Title: Enumerating linearity regions of max-pooling layers in convolutional neural networks Abstract: Convolutional neural networks (CNN's) […]

Title: Graphical Anomaly Detection for High Dimensional and Object Data Abstract: Anomaly detection is an important task in data analysis, though an agreed upon definition of what constitutes an outlier […]

Title:  Can a function tell us how immune cells kill? Speaker: Prof. Ami Radunskaya (Pomona College, Claremont CA) Abstract: The immune system is able to fight cancer by mustering and training […]

Title: Geometric Optimization Involving Partial Differential Equations and Its Applications Speaker: Professor Chiu-Yen Kao, Claremont McKenna College, Claremont, CA USA Abstract: Optimal geometric design for energy functionals, which depends on solutions to partial differential equations, provides a vast number of interesting and challenging mathematical problems. One of the famous problems is that L. Rayleigh conjectured that the disk […]

Title: On Nonlinear Schrödinger Type Equations: Wave Modulation and Mathematical Analysis Abstract: The nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation describes the evolution of slowly varying packets of quasi-monochromatic waves in weakly nonlinear […]

Title: The fractional p-Laplacian operator. Motivation for its definition and related boundary value problems Abstract: Last decades, nonlocal operators, as the fractional Laplacian, have gained to much attention due to […]

Title: Controlling the unmanageable: insight into control methods for biological systems Abstract: When formulating a model for a biological system, often we want to use the model to understand the […]

Title: How well do neurons, humans, and artificial neural networks predict? Abstract: Sensory prediction is thought to be vital to organisms, but few studies have tested how well organisms and […]
