Zoom Link: https://yale.zoom.us/j/94223816617 Meeting ID: 942 2381 6617 Abstract: The results of learning and statistical inference reveal information about the data they use. This […]


FDS Colloquium: Song Mei (Berkeley), “Revisiting neural network approximation theory in the age of generative AI”

Optional Zoom link: https://yale.zoom.us/j/97222935172 Abstract: Textbooks on deep learning theory primarily perceive neural networks as universal function approximators. While this classical viewpoint is fundamental, it […]


FDS Colloquium: Bento Natura (Columbia), “Faster Exact Linear Programming”

Optional Zoom link: https://yale.zoom.us/j/99342713421 Abstract: We present a novel algorithm to solve various subclasses of linear programs, with a particular focus on strongly polynomial […]


FDS Colloquium: Quanquan C. Liu, “Massive Graph Algorithms from Theory to Practice and Back”

FDS Colloquium: Quanquan C. Liu, “Massive Graph Algorithms from Theory to Practice and Back”

“Massive Graph Algorithms from Theory to Practice and Back” Abstract: In the face of massive graph data, there is increased interest in developing novel […]


S&DS Seminar: Yury Polyanskiy (MIT), “Clustering and phase transitions in transformers”

Abstract: Most of the recent advances in AI are based around a neural architecture known as Transformer. We describe the process of evolution of […]
