Gromov-Witten/Donaldson Thomas theory and Birational/Symplectic invariants for algebraic surfaces
During the Spring 2021 Semester Artan Sheshmani (CMSA/ I.M. A.U.) will be teaching a CMSA special lecture series on Gromov-Witten/Donaldson Thomas theory and Birational/Symplectic invariants for algebraic surfaces. In order to attend this series, please fill out this form. The lectures will be held Mondays from 8:00 – 9:30 AM ET and Wednesdays from 8:00 – 9:00 AM ET beginning January 25 on […]
CMSA Math-Science Literature Lecture: Discrepancy Theory and Randomized Controlled Trials
Dan Spielman (Yale University) Title: Discrepancy Theory and Randomized Controlled Trials Abstract: Discrepancy theory tells us that it is possible to partition vectors into sets so that each set looks surprisingly similar to every other. By “surprisingly similar” we mean much more similar than a random partition. I will begin by surveying fundamental results in […]
Knowledge graph representation: From recent models towards a theoretical understanding
Speaker: Carl Allen and Ivana Balažević - University of Edinburgh School of Informatics Title: Knowledge graph representation: From recent models towards a theoretical understanding Abstract: Knowledge graphs (KGs), or knowledge bases, are large repositories of facts in the form of triples (subject, relation, object), e.g. (Edinburgh, capital_of, Scotland). Many models have been developed to succinctly represent KGs […]
