[ IMA] Monday, October 18, 2010 - Friday, October 22, 2010 Mathematical and computational models for an increasing number of complex systems in basic sciences, engineering and, increasingly, also in life sciences and socioeconomic modeling, involve uncertainty: the input data could be random parameters expressing information that may only be revealed in the future, or simply reflect measurement error or inherent variability.
[ IMA] Monday, November 01, 2010 - Friday, November 05, 2010 This workshop will survey novel discretization techniques in numerical partial differential equations that address the computational challenges posed by higher dimensions, higher orders, complex spaces, complex geometries, nonlinearities and multiscales. The focus is on new and fundamental methodologies that impact diverse areas of numerical partial differential equations. Topics include discontin...
[ IMA] Monday, November 29, 2010 - Friday, December 03, 2010 The amount of time required to solve the large scale problems arising from numerical partial differential equations is a major concern in using mathematical models based on partial differential equations. Various fast solution techniques, such as adaptive methods, domain decomposition methods and multilevel methods, have been developed to address this issue. This workshop will survey new developme...
[ IMA] Monday, January 10, 2011 - Friday, January 14, 2011 Recently, computational science has been offered the prospect of vast increases in capability, thanks to a paradigm shift in hardware architectures. The IT industry has sidestepped the bottlenecks it faced (memory, power, complexity) by opting for on-chip parallelism. This brought first the multi-core model, and now promises many-core as the future. In addition, we have a great opportunity in the ...
[ IMA] Monday, March 07, 2011 - Friday, March 11, 2011 This workshop focuses on the processing, modeling and simulation of image data, and in particular, data that is related to humans and human activities. The main core areas consist of image processing, computer graphics, virtual surgeries, and sport sciences. The modern world is full of image data that is not only gathered from the real world via various imaging mechanisms, but also produced throug...
[ IMA] Monday, April 11, 2011 - Friday, April 15, 2011 Simulation and computation play a critical role in important societal problems. Examples include the role of anthropogenic emissions on climate and ocean circulation; the prediction of earthquakes and tsunamis; the prediction of paths and storm surges of hurricanes; designing infrastructure that is capable of withstanding disasters, such as floods and terrorist attacks; the design and long term du...
[ IMA] Monday, June 06, 2011 - Friday, June 10, 2011 Many classes of problems in computational science and engineering are characterized by a cycle of experiment design, observation, parameter/state estimation, prediction, and decision-making. The critical steps in this process involve: (1) modeling of the physical processes via, for example, PDEs; (2) estimating unknown parameters in the model from observational data via solution of an inverse prob...
[ IMA] Monday, September 13, 2010 - Wednesday, September 15, 2010 This workshop is to bring together a group of scientists, mathematicians, and physicians to discuss the device-biological interactions at the material-tissue interfaces from the perspective of medical efficacy and scientific mechanisms. Medical, engineering, and mathematic tools will be used. The goal of the workshop is to identify challenges and opportunities in the fields to stimulate collaborat...
[ IMA] Friday, November 05, 2010 - Saturday, November 06, 2010 The Finite Element Circus is a conference series with a rich history, focusing on new developments in the finite element method (FEM) and applications. FEM plays a crucial role in simulation of engineering, physical, biological, and other scientific phenomena. A driving force for its success has been its mathematical analysis, which has led to novel competitive methods and significant improvements...
[ IMA] Thursday, September 01, 2011 - Saturday, June 30, 2012 The Mathematics of Information program will involve invited long-term visitors, New Direction Visiting Professors, as well as postdoctoral fellows. Six workshops on rapidly growing research areas are being organized. In addition, there will be tutorials as well as short courses offered to introduce graduate students, postdocs, and other researchers in neighboring areas to the topics covered in the...
[ IMA] Monday, September 19, 2011 - Friday, September 23, 2011 The time is ripe to foster a direct cross-fertilization between the communities in geometric functional analysis, high dimensional geometry and probability and various information theory communities. This workshop will bring together researchers from these communities, including those already at work at the interface, as well as young investigators entering one of the fields.
[ IMA] Monday, October 24, 2011 - Friday, October 28, 2011 The focus of the workshop will be on the mathematical, algorithmic, and statistical questions that arise in graph-based machine learning and data analysis, with an emphasis on graphs that arise in the above settings, as well as the corresponding algorithms and motivating applications. Thus, this workshop will be an opportunity for researchers from diverse fields to get together and share problems ...
[ IMA] Monday, November 14, 2011 - Friday, November 18, 2011 The goal of this workshop is to bring together mathematicians, statisticians, engineers and scientists working on particular aspects of medical informatics or related areas. A careful look at the literature in any of the subfields of medical informatics reveals specialized approaches and philosophies combined with a lack of knowledge of other potentially useful methodologies that have been develop...
[ IMA] Monday, February 13, 2012 - Friday, February 17, 2012 The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers in a diverse mixture of theoretical computer science (including streaming and sublinear algorithms, property testing, lower bounds, and space complexity results), bioinformatics and analysis of large genetic data sets, information and coding theory, and high throughput biological screening.
[ IMA] Sunday, March 25, 2012 - Friday, March 30, 2012 This workshop attempts to bring together researchers from different disciplines to discuss recent trends and advances in the theoretical and computational aspects of machine learning.
[ IMA] Monday, May 07, 2012 - Friday, May 11, 2012 This data-driven workshop will explore the challenges for inference, models, algorithms and graphical and analytical tools that these different aspects of user-centered modeling raise. The plan is to start with enabling, evaluating, and analyzing data that users actively contribute in citizen science, taking into account thorny issues like data aggregation, selection bias, data quality, and infere...
[ IMA] Wednesday, September 07, 2011 - Friday, September 09, 2011 One of the main objectives of the workshop is to promote research that leads to the discovery and understanding of the underlying processes in order to provide a base for building predictive models. An extension of the trend study is the problem of regression, which is also of great interests to a broad research community, including the econometrics/finance community.
