The Madhupur Gate area of Ahmedabad is noted for the block printed textiles produced for villagers. When shopping in this area in 2014 however it was quickly apparent all the merchandise these days is mill produced and printed synthetic cloth of which this is an example. The designs and motifs however do continue the earlier block printing. One ...

We present an overview of how SageMath and Macaulay2 have provided crucial computational help and insight to problems in string theory over the last decade. As concrete examples, we will use the Calabi-Yau landscape. In parallel, we propose a paradigm to machine-learn the ever-expanding databases which have emerged in mathematical physics, algeb...

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...

Traffic anomalies in communication networks greatly degrade network performance. In this talk, I will survey statistical and machine learning techniques that are used to classify and detect network anomalies such as Internet worms that affect performance of routing protocols. Various classification features are used to design anomaly detection m...

Mean-field games (MFG) is a framework to model and analyze huge populations of interacting agents that play non-cooperative differential games with applications in crowd motion, economics, finance, etc. Additionally, the PDE that arise in MFG have a rich mathematical structure and include those that appear in optimal transportation and density f...
