This quarter, we will read some recent papers on
a variety of important topics in the area of Applied and Computational Harmonic
Analysis, in particular, those related to data analysis on graphs/networks and
machine learning.
Any participant who actually makes a classroom presentation on a paper selected
from the following list will receive 2 credit units. The other participants
will receive 1 credit unit (attendance will be checked).
Jan. 6: Organizational Meeting
- Determine the meeting schedule, groupings of the
participants depending on the themes of the papers.
