[Seminar] Harvesting of Interacting Stochastic Populations

Speaker: Ky Tran, SUNY Korea Place: B203 Academic Building Time: Mon, 06/03/2019 - 18:40 Abstract In this talk, we analyze the optimal harvesting problem for an ecosystem of species that experience environmental stochasticity. We take into account non-linear interactions between species, state-dependent prices, noise impacts, and species seeding. The key generalization is making it possible to not only harvest but also ‘seed’ individuals into the ecosystem. The harvesting problem becomes ﬁnding the optimal harvesting-seeding strategy that maximizes the expected total profit. We employ the viscosity solution method, Lyapunov functional approach, and the Markov chain approximation method.

[Seminar] Regression in Predictive Learning

Speaker: Ja-Yong Koo, Korea University Place: B103 Time: Thu, 05/02/2019 - 17:30 Abstract Regression analysis is one of the most commonly used methods in statistics that explores functional relationships between variables of interest. Specifically, it examines the influence of one or more predictors on a response variable. We will review the basics of linear regression analysis in which the relationships between a response variable and predictors are assumed to be linear. The focus will be on a careful and intuitive understanding of fundamental concepts of regression analysis. We will also discuss the case where the relationships between variables are highly nonlinear. Flexible regression models based on splines will be briefly introduced.

[Seminar] Accelerated First-order Methods for Large-scale Optimization

Speaker: Donghwan Kim, KAIST Place: B203 Time: Fri, 04/05/2019 - 16:00 Abstract Many modern applications, such as machine learning and statistics, require solving large-dimensional optimization problems. First-order methods, such as a gradient method and a proximal point method, are widely used to solve such large-scale problems, since their computational cost per iteration mildly depends on the problem dimension. However, they suffer from slow convergence rates, compared to second-order methods such as Newton's method. Therefore, accelerating first-order methods has received a great interest, and this led to the development of a conjugate gradient method, a heavy-ball method, and Nesterov's fast gradient method, which we will review in this talk. This talk will then present recently proposed accelerated first-order methods, named optimized gradient method (OGM) and OGM-G.

[Seminar] Introduction to enumerative geometry

Speaker: Jinwon Choi, Sookmyung Women's University Place: B203 Academic Building Time: Mon, 03/11/2019 - 18:40 Abstract Enumerative geometry is an area of algebraic geometry concerned with counting number of geometric structures satisfying a given collection of geometric conditions. I will discuss basic concepts, history, and recent development.
