SIAM Annual Meeting 2013: Minisymposium on Laplacian Spectra for Shape Optimization, Classification, Recognition, and Beyond (July 8-10, 2013)

Chiu-Yen Kao, Braxton Osting, and I organized a minisymposium on "Laplacian Spectra for Shape Optimization, Classification, Recognition, and Beyond" at SIAM Annual Meeting in San Diego, CA, on July 8-10, 2013.  Here, with the approval of the invited speakers, we provide their presentation files below (in the order of the actual presentations in the minisymposium) so that people can share our excitement on that day with us!
