Abstract
This talk will be divided into two parts where the first part will be on my current research, and the second part will be focused on sharing my experience at Stony Brook University and studying Math/Applied Math as an undergraduate degree.
PART 1: In this talk, I will take an oil reservoir modeling and a history matching problem as an example to address the challenges of modern data analysis. As modern data become more complex and higher dimensional, finding a way to represent the data in a concise and useful form is an important problem. An auto-encoder can be used to find a low dimensional representation for an oil reservoir data and used for history matching problem.
PART 2: Experience at Stony Brook University as a math major, life after graduation, job interview etc.
