Understanding the global-scale dynamics of the chemical composition of our atmosphere is essential for addressing a wide range of environmental issues from air quality to climate change. Understanding this phenomenon enables us to evaluate and devise appropriate environmental policies, such as the Kyoto Protocol on global greenhouse gases emissi...

Inferring parameters in a geophysical flow model is a challenge for Lagrangian data assimilation(LaDA). We present a filtering-based method that combines particle filter and ENKF to track time-varying state vectors (positions of drifters) and fixed model parameters in a quasi-geostrophic two-layer shallow water model. Our method uses a dual stra...

Parsimony, including sparsity and low rank, has been shown to successfully modeldata in numerous machine learning and signal processing tasks. Traditionally, suchmodeling approaches rely on an iterative algorithm that minimizes an objectivefunction with parsimony-promoting terms. The inherently sequential structure anddata-dependent complexity a...

In this talk I will describe recent results in the segmentationof relevant structures in electron tomography.We have developed novel techniques based onPDEs to work with this extremely hard data.I will describe the problem and the proposed solution,both at a tutorial level for a general audience.This is joint work with A. Bartesaghi and S. Subra...

A geometric framework for comparing manifolds given by point cloudsis first presented in this talk. The underlying theory is based onGromov-Hausdorff distances, leading to isometry invariant andcompletely geometric comparisons. This theory is embedded in aprobabilistic setting as derived from random sampling of manifolds,and then combined with r...

In this talk I will first show how to use simpleand classical results from distance geometry toaddress the problem of sensor localization underphysical constraints.Then I will move into presenting some recent resultsin video processing that I wish could be done at the sensorlevel. For example, I will show techniques thatreduce the video data to ...
