Because sheaves model consistency relationships between local data, they are easily assembled from detailed models of systems. Being topological in nature, sheaves mediate local-to-global inference. By incorporating local geometry from the start, the global "fit" between local data and models can be quantified, which supports robust inferences a...

Recently, sheaves have become useful for addressing problems in signal processing. Morphisms between sheaves provide a handy formal construct for understanding the relationship between measurements, intermediate data, and processed outputs. The resulting topological filters generalize the linear filters that engineers use extensively, but also d...

Many problems of optimization and equilibrium result in models in the general class of variational conditions, sometimes in a generalized form. Thus, if the problem is one of optimization, we first write optimality conditions and then try to compute with those. If instead of an optimization model we have a model involving some kind of equilibriu...

Our work with x-ray micro-CT images of complex porous materials has required the development of topologically valid and efficient algorithms for studying and quantifying their intricate structure. As an example, simulations of two-phase fluid displacements in a porous rock depend on network models that accurately reflect the connectivity and geo...

A fundamental difficulty in stochastic optimization is the fact thatdecisions may not be able pin down the values of future 'costs,' butrather can only, within limits, shape their distributions as random variables.An upper bound on a ramdom 'cost' is often impossible, or too expensive, toenforce with certainty, and so some compromise attitude mu...

All too often we see mathematics and the arts as two sides of the science/humanities coin. In this talk we'll see a place in which the two come naturally together in exciting new research. In today's world in which almost all aspects of life are brought to the common medium of the computer, it is now possible to quantify and extract the style of...
