https://youtu.be/79ymkGQW3b4 Speaker: David McAllester - Toyota Technological Institute at Chicago Title: Type theory from the perspective of artificial intelligence Abstract: This talk will discuss dependent type theory from the perspective of artificial intelligence and cognitive science. From an artificial intelligence perspective it will be argued that type theory is central to defining the "game" of mathematics […]
Peter Shor (MIT) Title: Quantum error correcting codes and fault tolerance Abstract: We will go over the fundamentals of quantum error correction and fault tolerance and survey some of the recent developments in the field. Talk chair: Zhengwei Liu Video
https://youtu.be/VhseP2V3NXg Speaker: Miles Cranmer - Princeton University Title: A Bayesian neural network predicts the dissolution of compact planetary systems Abstract: Despite over three hundred years of effort, no solutions exist for predicting when a general planetary configuration will become unstable. I will discuss our deep learning architecture (arxiv:2101.04117) which pushes forward this problem for compact systems. […]
Yi MaPhoto Copyright Noah Berger / 2019 Yi Ma (University of California, Berkeley) Title: Deep Networks from First Principles Abstract: In this talk, we offer an entirely “white box’’ interpretation of deep (convolution) networks from the perspective of data compression (and group invariance). In particular, we show how modern deep layered architectures, linear (convolution) operators and […]
