Using Compressive Sensing to Uncover the Alloy Genome with High-Throughput Model Building
Description:
First-principles codes can nowadays provide hundreds of high-fidelity enthalpies on thousands of alloy systems with a modest investment of a few tens of millions of CPU hours. But a mere database of enthalpies provides only the starting point for uncovering the 'alloy genome.' What one needs to fundamentally change alloy discovery and design are...

Using Continuum Limits To Understand Data Clustering And Classification
Description:
Graph Laplacians encode geometric information contained in data, via the eigenfunctions associated with their small eigenvalues. These spectral properties provide powerful tools in data clustering and data classification. When a large number of data points are available one may consider continuum limits of the graph Laplacian, both to give insig...

Using Cover-Trees and Friends for Machine Learning with the CDER algorithm
Description:
Cover Tree with Friends is the fastest-known way to solve nearest-neighbors of pointclouds in Euclidean space, and they also allow fast approximations of the persistent homology of large data sets. By extending the notion of Friends, we developed CDER, a new method for supervised learning of labelled pointclouds in Euclidean space. It is a deter...

Using Diffusion Monte Carlo to investigate molecules that undergo large amplitude vibrational motions
Description:
This talk will highlight recent work in our group in which we use Diffusion Monte Carlo approaches to study molecular vibrations of several fluxional systems. The molecular systems that will be the focus of the talk will be CH5+ and ion-water complexes. For these studies, we focus on two approaches. The first involves a fixed-node treatment of r...

Using Harmonic Measures to Reveal Source Locations Under Random Walks
Description:
Random walk on a graph is a Markov chain and thus is €˜memoryless' as the next node to visit depends only on the current node and not on the sequence of events thatpreceded it. With these properties, random walk and its many variations have been used in network routing to €˜randomize' the trafï¬ c pattern and hide the location of the data source...

Using interior-point methods within MINLP
Description:
While implementations of infeasible interior-point methods remain the state-of-the-art in nonlinear programming, there are serious limitations in their use within the framework of MINLP due to lack of warm-start and infeasibility detection capabilities. We present a primal-dual penalty approach that allows interior-point methods to have such cap...

Using Invariant Theory to Obtain Estimates of Unknown Shape and Motion, and Imaging Moving Objects in 3D from Single Aperture Synthetic Aperture Radar
Description:
When a moving object is imaged with conventional synthetic aperture radar (SAR) the result is a displaced smear. This is due tothe extra information the objectmotion is imparting to the radar return. When a sensor collects data from a moving extended object,estimation of the direction vectors from the object to the sensor is often essential to t...

Using Macaulay2 effectively in practice
Description:
After presenting some (personal) history of Macaulay/Macaulay2, we will use Macaulay2 to investigate a couple of problems, the first one being: what kinds of invariants (e.g. regularity, graded Betti numbers) are possible for ideals generated by small numbers of quadrics. This is a good problem to see some of what can be done with Macaulay2 and ...

Using Quadratic Nonlinear Statistical Emulators to Facilitate Ocean Biogeochemical Data Assimilation
Description:
As environmental data sets increase in spatial and temporal extent with the advent of new remote sensing platforms and long-term monitoring networks, there is increasing interest in forecasting processes to utilize this information. Such forecasts require realistic initial conditions over complete spatial domains. Typically, data sources are inc...

Using RNA 3D Structure Data in SCFG/MRF Models to do Sequence Alignment and Motif Inference
Description:
RNA 3D structure files contain essentially complete information about the interactions that form the 3D structure of an RNA molecule for a given organism. Homologous molecules in other organisms will have very similar 3D structures, but we expect to see sequence variability due to structurally neutral base substitutions, insertions, and deletion...

Using Simulations for Weak Supervised Learning: A ChemNet for Transferable Chemical Property Prediction
Description:
With access to large datasets, deep neural networks (DNN) have achieved human-level accuracy in image and speech recognition tasks. However, in chemistry, data is inherently small and fragmented. In this work, we develop various approaches of using rule-based models and physics-based simulations to train ChemNet, a transferable and generalizable...

Using the Crowd for User-Centered Predictive Modeling
Description:
I will describe work on three areas related to crowd-based user-centered modeling:1) Growing Lists: We want to combining the knowledge of many people (experts) in order to create 'sets' of things that go together, starting from a small seed. The experts have varying levels of expertise. This is the same problem that Google Sets was designed to s...

Using topology to understand chromosome organization across organisms
Description:
Topological methods have been mostly used to study the action of enzymes and properties of naked DNA molecules. However topology can also be used to study chromosome organization. In this talk I will present three problems in which topology can be used to study complex organization of DNA.First I will present the problem of DNA knotting in bacte...
