7 | 8 | 9 | 10 - CMSA EVENT: CMSA Interdisciplinary Science Seminar: Recent Advances on Maximum Flows and Minimum-Cost Flows
9:00 AM-10:00 AM August 10, 2022 1 Oxford Street, Cambridge, MA 02138 USA
Abstract: We survey recent advances on computing flows in graphs, culminating in an almost linear time algorithm for solving minimum-cost flow and several other problems to high accuracy on directed graphs. Along the way, we will discuss intuitions from linear programming, graph theory, and data structures that influence these works, and the resulting natural open problems. Bio: Yang P. Liu is a final-year graduate student at Stanford University. He is broadly interested in the efficient design of algorithms, particularly flows, convex optimization, and online algorithms. For his work, he has been awarded STOC and ITCS best student papers.

| 11 - CMSA EVENT: CMSA Interdisciplinary Science Seminar: Exploring and Exploiting the Universality Phenomena in High-Dimensional Estimation and Learning
9:00 AM-10:00 AM August 11, 2022 1 Oxford Street, Cambridge, MA 02138 USA
Universality is a fascinating high-dimensional phenomenon. It points to the existence of universal laws that govern the macroscopic behavior of wide classes of large and complex systems, despite their differences in microscopic details. The notion of universality originated in statistical mechanics, especially in the study of phase transitions. Similar phenomena have been observed in probability theory, dynamical systems, random matrix theory, and number theory. In this talk, I will present some recent progresses in rigorously understanding and exploiting the universality phenomena in the context of statistical estimation and learning on high-dimensional data. Examples include spectral methods for high-dimensional projection pursuit, statistical learning based on kernel and random feature models, and approximate message passing algorithms on highly structured, strongly correlated, and even (nearly) deterministic data matrices. Together, they demonstrate the robustness and wide applicability of the universality phenomena.
