Combining recent results on numerical integration and optimization, we derive a polynomial bound on the worst case complexity of a class of static stochastic optimization problems. We then describe a technique for reducing dynamic problems to static ones. The reduction technique is only a heuristic but it can effectively employ good guesses for ...

The advent of nanofabrication technologies allows for the development of robust nanoconfined fluidic channels. In this talk I will outline some recent advances and challenges in our research program aimed at elucidating linear and nonlinear electrokinetic phenomena within such channels. First, I will present a combined theoretical and experiment...

Computational anatomy is an emerging discipline at the interface of geometry, statistics, image analysis and medicine that aims at analysing and modelling the biological variability of the organs shapes at the population level. The goal is to model the mean anatomy and its normal variation among a population and to discover morphological differe...
