Finding Effective Spreaders for Fast Communication in Small and Large Networks
Description:
The identification of nodes in a network that will enable the fastest spread of information is an important if not fundamental problem in network control and design. It is applicable to the optimal placement of sensors, the design of secure networks and the problem of control when network resources are limited. We consider a discrete time model...

Machine Learning Techniques for High-Dimensional Optimal Transport
Description:
We present machine learning (ML) approaches for approximately solving optimal transport problems in the high-dimensional setting. Problems of this kind frequently arise in statistics, Bayesian inference, and generative modeling, yet progress has been limited due to the curse-of-dimensionality. As our learning framework tackles the optimal cont...

Quantile-based Iterative Methods for Corrupted Systems of Linear Equations
Description:
One of the most ubiquitous problems arising across the sciences is that of solving large-scale systems of linear equations Ax = b. When it is infeasible to solve the system directly by inversion, light and scalable iterative methods can be used instead, such as, Randomized Kaczmarz (RK) algorithm, or Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD). The classi...

The Ramanujan Machine: Using Algorithms for the Discovery of Conjectures on Mathematical Constants
Description:
In the past, new conjectures about fundamental constants were discovered sporadically by famous mathematicians such as Newton, Euler, Gauss, and Ramanujan. The talk will present a different approach – a systematic algorithmic approach that discovers new mathematical conjectures on fundamental constants. We call this approach “the Ram...

Deep Networks and the Multiple Manifold Problem
Description:
Data with low-dimensional nonlinear structure are ubiquitous in engineering and scientific problems. We study a model problem with such structure—a binary classification task that uses a deep fully-connected neural network to classify data drawn from two disjoint smooth curves on the unit sphere. Aside from mild regularity conditions, we p...
