Now that optimal transport algorithms are reaching new levels of sophistication, we can turn our attention to developing mature applications of transport in machine learning and statistics. In this talk, I will demonstrate the breath of applications in which we can incorporate machinery from transport, as well as the computational techniques nee...

We discuss bacterial biofilms and the scope for describing their viscoelastic mechanical properties as a consequence of their underlying polymeric and multiphase morphology. Biofilms are the most prevalent phenotype of bacteria in nature. Biofilms form under conditions common in industry and in the body. They are structurally heterogeneous on mu...

Let A be a finite set of integers. The sum set, A+A, is the setof pairwise sums from A and the product set, AA, is the set of pairwiseproducts. Erdos and Szemeredi conjectured that either the sum set or theproduct set should be large, A+A+AA is (almost) quadratic in A forany subset of integers. This problem (and some of its variants) became oneo...

Our understanding of the working brain is partly based on observations through the "windows of the brain", electric (EEG/MEG), metabolic (PET), or hemodynamic (fMRI,OT). To shed light on the intricacies of the neurovascular coupling, and in order to model phenomena such as CSD, it is important to work towards an integrated model of the three key...

When observed data are used to infer on parameters that are not directly observable, usually an inverse problem needs to be solved. Characteristic for inverse problems is their ill-posedness, which in practice means that small errors in data may propagate to huge inconsistencies in the solution if the problem is not properly regularized or augme...
