SUMMARY:MICDE Seminar: Nathan Kutz\, University of Washington
DESCRIPTION:Bio: Nathan Kutz is the Robert Bolles and Yasuko Endo Professor in the department of Applied Mathematics\, and an adjunct professor of Electrical Engineering and Physics at the University of Washington. He was awarded the B.S. in Physics and Mathematics from the University of Washington in 1990 and the PhD in Applied Mathematics from Northwestern University in 1994. Following postdoctoral fellowships at the Institute for Mathematics and its Applications (University of Minnesota\, 1994-1995) and Princeton University (1995-1997)\, he joined the faculty of applied mathematics and served as Chair from 2007-2015. \nData-driven discovery of dynamical systems in the engineering\, physical and biological sciences\nWe demonstrate that the integration of data-driven dynamical systems and machine learning strategies with adaptive control are capable of producing efficient and optimal self-tuning algorithms for many complex systems arising in the engineering\, physical and biological sciences. We demonstrate that we can use emerging\, large-scale time-series data from modern sensors to directly construct\, in an adaptive manner\, governing equations\, even nonlinear dynamics\, that best model the system measured using sparsity-promoting techniques. Recent innovations also allow for handling multi-scale physics phenomenon and control protocols in an adaptive and robust way. The overall architecture is equation-free in that the dynamics and control protocols are discovered directly from data acquired from sensors. The theory developed is demonstrated on a number of example problems. Ultimately\, the method can be used to construct adaptive controllers which are capable of obtaining and maintaining optimal states while the machine learning and sparse sensing techniques characterize the system itself for rapid state identification and improved optimization. \nThis seminar is co-sponsored by the U-M Department of Mathematics.

SUMMARY:CoE Endowed Professorship Recognition: Eric Michielssen\, The Future of Scientific Computing
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nFor decades\, high-end computer-aided simulations have helped researchers gain new insights into the nature of the physical world. But only relatively recently has computational science developed the ability to quantitatively predict the behavior of physical phenomena\, and taken its place next to theory and physical experimentation as the third pillar of scientific inquiry. In this talk\, I will explain the mathematical algorithms and computing hardware that fueled this transformation. I will also discuss what the future of scientific computing holds\, given the demise of Moore’s law\, using computational electromagnetics as an example. Finally\, I will argue that U-M is ideally positioned to become a national leader in research computing\, giving researchers in its 19 schools and colleges a competitive advantage in their pursuit of engineering\, scientific\, and medical discoveries. \nBio: \nEric Michielssen is Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science and Associate Vice President for Advanced Research Computing. He was also the founding director of the Michigan Institute for Computational Discovery and Engineering (MICDE).  Eric is an international leader in the field of computational electromagnetics (CEM)\, which involves the development and application of computer algorithms to simulate the generation\, propagation\, and interaction of electromagnetic radiation with matter. He has applied his techniques to the characterization of semiconductor and microelectronic devices\, photonic crystals and optical phenomena\, aircraft scattering\, and terrain detection\, to name a few. \nProf. Michielssen’s research on fundamental algorithms is found in the codes and simulations of countless other researchers as well as commercially available simulators. His more than 500 journal and conference publications have been cited more than 10\,500 times\, with an h-index of 43.  Eric serves as Editor-in-Chief of the International Journal of Numerical Modeling\, and served on the National Academy’s Committee on Mathematical Foundations of Uncertainty Quantification\, Validation\, and Verification. He is an IEEE Fellow.

SUMMARY:Biostatistics Seminar: Kenneth Lange\, Professor of Biomathematics\, Human Genetics and Statistics\, UCLA: "Next Generation Statistical Genetics"
DESCRIPTION:This talk will discuss how modern data mining techniques can be imported into statistical genetics. Most relevant models now invoke high-dimensional optimization. Penalization and set projection give sparsity. Separation of variables gives parallelization. Time permitting\, these ideas will be illustrated by several examples: estimation of ethnic ancestry\, genotype imputation via matrix completion\, conversion of imputed genotypes into haplotypes\, matrix completion discriminant analysis\, estimation in the linear mixed model\, iterative hard thresholding in GWAS\, and sparse principal components analysis.

SUMMARY:Introduction to Survey Design: Data Collection\, Questionnaire Design and Response Processes-Lecture
DESCRIPTION:This lecture-format workshop will present an overview of available modes and methods of survey data collection as well as an introduction to the survey response process and implications for questionnaire design.  Participants will gain an appreciation of the tradeoffs inherent in survey design decisions and how design can affect data quality and survey errors. Topics will include: \n\nSurvey errors\, in particular measurement\, coverage\, and nonresponse error.\nWhat to consider when selecting a data collection method for a particular research question.\nMeasurement (response) error and how to reduce it through question wording/format and questionnaire structure.\n\nThe role of the interviewer and interviewer effects.
