We introduce an efficient algorithm, called partition of unity extension or PUX, to construct an extension of desired regularity of a function given on a complex multiply connected domain in $2D$.Function extension plays a fundamental role in...

Concentration waves of swimming bacteria Escherichia coli were described in his seminal paper by Adler (Science 1966). These experiments gave rise to intensive PDE modelling and analysis, after the original model by Keller and Segel (J. Theor. Biol...

In this talk, we present a compressed sensing approach to sparse polynomial approximation via convex and non-convex optimization of functions in high dimensions. Of particular interest is the parameterized PDE setting, where the target function is...

Functions appearing in many applications, for example as the solution of an integral or differential equation, are usually discretized and approximated in a basis. Each function in a certain space can be uniquely represented in that basis...

In the simulation of complex physics, multiple model forms of varying fidelity and resolution are commonly available. In computational fluid dynamics, for example, common model fidelities include potential flow, inviscid Euler, Reynolds-averaged...

An intriguing application of Deep Learning research is the use of Deep Convolutional Neural Networks (DCNNs) for image processing, as seen for example in the Prisma app and the Deep Dream algorithm. At SFU SIAT's iVizLab, we are using DCNNs within...

Spherical harmonics are the natural basis for square integrable functions on the sphere in the sense of Lebesgue. However, their analytic structure makes them formidable to work with numerically. In this talk, we will present rapid transformations...

The purpose of the conference is to promote interaction and networking among new researchers in these fields. The participants will present their research via a short expository talk and a poster and mingle throughout the day. There will be plenary...
