TUTORIAL TOPIC:

Mathematical Modeling for Tensor, data compression, and Neural networks

SUMMARY:

Mathematics is at the core of machine learning. The aim is to provide a platform for mathematicians to share and exchange their research and ideas with the practitioners in machine learning. This tutorial invites papers on various mathematical topics related to machine learning, such as optimization, probability, statistics, tensors, numerical mathematics, signal processing, system theory, analysis, topology, graph theory, etc

Multidimensional data can be represented as a tensor or multi-array, or multi-linear functionals without losing any information. Mathematically, tensors are a generalization of the concepts of scalars, vectors, and matrices.

Tensors occur naturally in this world, just like scalars, vectors, and matrices, with many video and machine learning applications. This tutorial focuses on the mathematical fundamentals of tensors and their application in data compression and machine learning.

TUTORIAL INSTRUCTOR:

Dr. Hanumant Singh Shekhawat

IIT Guwahati, India

Bio: Dr. Hanumant Singh Shekhawat is working at the Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Electronics and Electrical Engineering. He did his postdoc at the Department of Electrical Engineering, Eindhoven University of Technology, and The Netherlands. His research was on multi-linear data (tensor) reduction techniques, which have applications in video/speech processing, MRI, and (higher dimensional) data analysis. He completed his Ph.D. in Nov 2012, from the Department of Applied Mathematics, the University of Twente, The Netherlands. His research was related to optimization problems in sampling and interpolation. He has completed his master’s (in 2004) from the Department of Electrical engineering and his bachelor’s in Electronics and communication engineering (in 2002) from the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay and Rajasthan University in India, respectively. After the master’s degree, he worked in Texas Instruments India and Sasken Communications India for around four years in the area of electronics, software, and algorithm development. He had a visiting faculty position at the University of Pardubice, the Czech Republic from May to June 2019. Currently, his work is related to problems in radar, tensor, speech, signals, and systems.


Dr. Shodhan Rao

Ghent University Global Campus, South Korea

Bio: Shodhan Rao is an Associate Professor of Applied Mathematics/ Director of Research Center for Biosystems and Biotech Data Science at Ghent University Global Campus (GUGC), Incheon, South Korea. He is also a part-time (10%) Professor with the Department of Mathematical Modelling and Data Analysis at Ghent University’s main campus. He is currently pursuing research on stability, parameter estimation and model reduction of biochemical reaction networks, validity conditions of quasi-steady-state approximations, and the dynamics of competition network models in ecology. His research interests are in the areas of chemical reaction network theory, systems biology, and mathematical ecology.
