고등과학원 특강입니다.

TIME: 10:00-10:50 May 20 (Thu), 2021
PLACE: Online
SPEAKER: Huh, June(Stanford University)
TITLE: Lorentzian polynomials

ABSTRACT: Lorentzian polynomials link continuous convex analysis and discrete convex analysis via tropical geometry. The tropical connection is used to produce Lorentzian polynomials from discrete convex functions. The talk will be accessible to undergraduate students in mathematics: The audience will need no specific background beyond linear algebra and multivariable calculus to enjoy the presentation. In addition, I advertise the talk and the corresponding paper to people with interests in at least one of the following topics: graphs, convex bodies, stable polynomials, projective varieties, Potts model partition functions, tropicalizations, Schur polynomials, highest weight representations. Based on joint work with Petter Branden.

TITLE: The Mathematics and Physics of Explainable AI

ABSTRACT:
Machine Learning has been a useful tool in recent years for solving computationally costly problems in the natural sciences. However, often too much focus has been on what computation Machine Learning can do for us rather than on how AI can teach us about new interesting natural phenomena. By highlighting the strong connections that Machine Learning fundamentally has with mathematics and physics, the colloquium will outline the challenging problem of explainability of AI and how we might use it in order to make new scientific discoveries. The colloquium will make connections to problems in industry, where explainable AI is quintessential for risk reduction, as well as to problems in a wide range of research areas such as molecular biology, medicine, electronic design automation or material science. At the heart of the colloquium will be our pioneering work in string theory and AI since 2017 and how explainable AI is paving the way for new groundbreaking discoveries at the interface of mathematics and physics.
