  • Some New Advances in Similarity-Based Predictive Modeling (Joel A. Dubin, University of Waterloo)

    Emmy Noether Room, Estella 1021, Pomona College, 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United States

    Abstract: Earlier work has shown that similarity-based predictive models can improve upon predictive performance, as compared to using the entire training data to help build models, particular regarding model discrimination for binary responses. My collaborators and I have some updated results to share, regarding similarity-based modeling for joint consideration of model calibration and discrimination, as […]

  • Claremont Topology Seminar: Puttipong Pongtanapaisan (Pitzer College)

    Fletcher 104, Pitzer College 1050 N Mills Ave, Claremont, United States

    We welcome all undergraduate/graduate students and faculty to attend topology seminar! Speaker: Puttipong Pongtanapaisan (Pitzer College) Title: Special Positions of Shapes in Four-Dimensional Space Abstract: I will begin by convincing you that four-dimensional space is more familiar than it might first appear. Then, I will introduce ways in which mathematicians study objects in 4-space. Each […]

  • Estimating Shapley Values for Explainable AI via Richer Model Approximations (Teal Witter, CMC)

    Emmy Noether Room, Estella 1021, Pomona College, 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United States

    Abstract: Modern machine learning is ultimately a simple process: We iteratively update the weights of machine learning models to minimize a problem-specific loss. When it works well, we deploy the model in human-facing domains like healthcare, finance, or the justice system. But even though we know how models are trained, we don't understand why they […]

  • CCMS Colloquium: Anna Ma (UCI)

    Davidson Lecture Hall, CMC 340 E 9th St, Claremont, CA, United States

    CCMS Colloquium invites you to a talk by Anna Ma (UCI) Title: Stochastic iterative methods for solving tensor linear systems Abstract: Solving linear systems is a crucial subroutine and challenge in data science and scientific computing. Classical approaches for solving linear systems assume that data is readily available and small enough to be stored in […]
