The role of recommender systems as a fundamental utility for electronic commerce and information access is well established with many commercially-available recommender systems providing benefits to both users and businesses. But, recommender systems tend to use simplistic user models that are additive in nature: new user preferences are simply ...

Many statistical models of evolution can be viewed asalgebraic varieties. The generators of the ideal associated to a modeland a phylogenetic tree are called invariants. The invariants of anstatistical model of evolution should allow to determine what is thetree formed by a set of living species.We will present a method of phylogenetic inference...

There are essentially two approaches to controller design for systems modeled by a partial differential equation: direct and indirect. In direct controller design, the original model is used design the controller. In indirect controller design, a finite-dimensional approximation of the system is obtained and controller design is based on this ap...

The Poisson-Nernst-Planck (PNP) equations can be used to describe cellular electrical activity. However, on domains where the space-charge layer is small, these equations are intractable and therefore it is useful to assume that the ionic solution is everywhere electrically neutral. The much more manageable electroneutral model results from a bo...

First-principles codes can nowadays provide hundreds of high-fidelity enthalpies on thousands of alloy systems with a modest investment of a few tens of millions of CPU hours. But a mere database of enthalpies provides only the starting point for uncovering the 'alloy genome.' What one needs to fundamentally change alloy discovery and design are...

Graph Laplacians encode geometric information contained in data, via the eigenfunctions associated with their small eigenvalues. These spectral properties provide powerful tools in data clustering and data classification. When a large number of data points are available one may consider continuum limits of the graph Laplacian, both to give insig...

Cover Tree with Friends is the fastest-known way to solve nearest-neighbors of pointclouds in Euclidean space, and they also allow fast approximations of the persistent homology of large data sets. By extending the notion of Friends, we developed CDER, a new method for supervised learning of labelled pointclouds in Euclidean space. It is a deter...

This talk will highlight recent work in our group in which we use Diffusion Monte Carlo approaches to study molecular vibrations of several fluxional systems. The molecular systems that will be the focus of the talk will be CH5+ and ion-water complexes. For these studies, we focus on two approaches. The first involves a fixed-node treatment of r...

Random walk on a graph is a Markov chain and thus is €˜memoryless' as the next node to visit depends only on the current node and not on the sequence of events thatpreceded it. With these properties, random walk and its many variations have been used in network routing to €˜randomize' the trafï¬ c pattern and hide the location of the data source...

While implementations of infeasible interior-point methods remain the state-of-the-art in nonlinear programming, there are serious limitations in their use within the framework of MINLP due to lack of warm-start and infeasibility detection capabilities. We present a primal-dual penalty approach that allows interior-point methods to have such cap...

When a moving object is imaged with conventional synthetic aperture radar (SAR) the result is a displaced smear. This is due tothe extra information the objectmotion is imparting to the radar return. When a sensor collects data from a moving extended object,estimation of the direction vectors from the object to the sensor is often essential to t...

After presenting some (personal) history of Macaulay/Macaulay2, we will use Macaulay2 to investigate a couple of problems, the first one being: what kinds of invariants (e.g. regularity, graded Betti numbers) are possible for ideals generated by small numbers of quadrics. This is a good problem to see some of what can be done with Macaulay2 and ...

RNA 3D structure files contain essentially complete information about the interactions that form the 3D structure of an RNA molecule for a given organism. Homologous molecules in other organisms will have very similar 3D structures, but we expect to see sequence variability due to structurally neutral base substitutions, insertions, and deletion...
