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 […]
The Riemann–Hilbert correspondence relates algebra to differential equations on complex algebraic varieties. In characteristic p, there is an analogous correspondence due to Emerton–Kisin and later generalized by Bhatt–Lurie, where the […]

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 […]

CCMS Colloquium invites you to a talk by Braxton Osting (University of Utah) Title: Blood pressure monitoring with biophysics-informed machine learning models Abstract: Measurement of blood pressure (BP) is essential for early diagnosis and management of hypertension, a condition that 45% of US adults have and a risk factor for development of heart failure, the […]

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 […]
It is a fundamental question to find rational solutions to a given system of polynomials, and in modern language this translates into finding rational points in algebraic varieties. It is […]

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 […]

Abstract: Anderson Acceleration (AA) has been widely used to solve nonlinear fixed-point problems due to its rapid convergence. This talk focuses on a variant of AA in which multiple Picard […]
Let $C$ be a nice (smooth, projective, geometrically integral) curve over a number field $k$. The single most important geometric invariant of a curve is the genus, which can control […]

We welcome all undergraduate/graduate students and faculty to attend topology seminar! Speaker: Robert Cass (Claremont McKenna College) Title: Schubert varieties are splinters Abstract: Schubert varieties are among the most well-studied singular algebraic varieties, and they have numerous applications in combinatorics and representation theory. In positive characteristic, Schubert varieties are known to be Frobenius split by […]

CCMS Colloquium invites you to a talk by Jemma Lorenat (Pitzer) Title: Recognizing data: statistical literacies around 1900 Abstract: This talk centers on the first (and perhaps only) doctorate in the theory of correlations, granted by University College London in 1899 to Alice Lee. The production and reception of Lee's research sheds light on the varieties of […]
