To alleviate the problem of missing interactions between scientists, a series of online lectures under the label “One World Seminar: Mathematical Methods for Arbitrary Data Sources (MADS)” will be organised during this semester, as part of the RISE action “NoMADS”. Each will use the proprietary software “Zoom” to broadcast talks of invited researchers to interested participants all over the world.

The lecture series will collect talks on mathematical disciplines related to all kind of data, ranging from statistics and machine learning to model-based approaches and inverse problems. Each pair of talks will address a specific direction, e.g. a NoMADS session related to nonlocal approaches or a DeepMADS session related to deep learning.

The first lecture will start on Monday, 20th April, 2020 at 2pm (German time, i.e., UTC+2 CEST) and the first speaker is already fixed:

Speaker: Gabriel Peyré (DMA, Ecole Normale Supérieure, Paris)
Title: Scaling Optimal Transport for High-dimensional Learning
