Examples of application of QM continuum models to the study of solvent effects on molecular properties and spectroscopies are presented and discussed together with their generalizations to hybrid continuum/discrete approaches in which the presence of specific interactions (e.g. solute-solvents H-bonds) is explicitly taken into account by includi...

Data has shape. Shape has meaning. I will discuss how Topological Data Analysis (TDA) has been applied to various biological problems such as identifying patient populations that might respond better to certain treatments, understanding the underlying etiology of a disease such as cancer and studying drug response at the single cell level.

In this talk, we will address two fundamental problems in time series analysis: The problem of filtering (or extracting) low-frequency trend, and the problem of interpolating missing data. We propose nonparametric techniques to solve these two problems. These techniques are based on the empirical mode decomposition (EMD), and accordingly they ar...

Some brief examples of systems where the motion of vortices play an important role in the dynamics will first be discussed to motivate the remainder material to be presented. Following this, the equations of motion governing the motion of point vortices in multiply-connected domains (for inviscid, incompressible fluids) will be introduced. A met...

Day 5: Optimal mass transport has become an essential tool in medical imaging analysis. We will show how it may be used for various purposes such as elastic image registration as well as visualization. Topics include prediction of outcomes for left atial fibrillation ablation and traumatic brain injury.
