Afternoons will be devoted to labs on modeling and analyzing data from space – time processes. In particular, they will include a module on the use of state space models for random space - time fields. Another module on Bayesian melding will show how...

The workshop will consist of several minicourses addressing a broad range of theoretical and practical issues arising in seismic imaging including the use of curvelets and other frames in seismic imaging, compressed sensing applied to seismic imaging...

Disjunctive programming is a classical technique for 0-1optimization in which a set of vertices of the hypercube is approximated by the convex hull of (carefully selected) polyhedra. Through the work of Lovasz, Schriver, Sherali and Adams, and others...

It has been known for over a century that there are many Riemannian metrics on the 2-sphere with the property that all of their geodesics are closed. Zoll, a student of Hilbert, constructed an infinite dimensional family of surfaces of rotation with...

In addition to frequent single-nucleotide mutations, mammalian and many other genomes undergo rare and dramatic changes called genome rearrangements. These include inversions, fissions, fusions, and translocations. Although analysis of genome...
