    Statistics Seminar: Boosting Biomedical Imaging Analysis via Distributed Functional Regression and Synthetic Surrogates

    Presenter: Guannan Wang, Associate Professor, The College of William & Mary Description: Generative AI has emerged as a powerful tool for synthesizing biomedical images, offering new solutions to challenges such as data scarcity, privacy constraints, and modality imbalance. However, the reliable use of synthetic images in scientific analysis requires principled statistical frameworks that can assess…

    AM Seminar: Probing Forced Responses and Causality in Data-Driven Climate Emulators: Conceptual Limitations and the Role of Reduced-Order Models

    Presenter: Fabrizio Falasca, New York University Description: A central challenge in climate science and applied mathematics is developing data-driven models of multiscale systems that capture both stationary statistics and responses to external perturbations. Current neural climate emulators aim to resolve the atmosphere–ocean system in all its complexity but often struggle to reproduce forced responses, limiting…

  • AM Seminar: Data Driven Modeling for Scientific Discovery and Digital Twins

    AM Seminar: Data Driven Modeling for Scientific Discovery and Digital Twins

    Presenter: Dongbin Xiu, Professor, Ohio State University Description:We present a data-driven modeling framework for scientific discovery, termed Flow Map Learning (FML). This framework enables the construction of accurate predictive models for complex systems that are not amenable to traditional modeling approaches. By leveraging data and the expressiveness of deep neural networks (DNNs), FML facilitates long-term…

  • AM Seminar: Multiscale Modeling of Cellular Membranes and Oncogenic Proteins

    AM Seminar: Multiscale Modeling of Cellular Membranes and Oncogenic Proteins

    Presenter: Liam Stanton, Professor, San Jose State University Description: In this talk, I will present a multiscale model for cellular membranes, which is trained on molecular dynamics simulations. The model is constructed within the formalism of dynamic density functional theory and can be extended to include features such as the presence of proteins and membrane…

    AM Seminar: Science in the Age of Foundation Models

    Presenter: Dr. Danielle Robinson, AWS AI Description: In this talk, I will discuss the large impact of foundation models within the sciences with a particular focus on the importance of physical constraints and uncertainty quantification. First, I will detail our novel ProbConserv framework for enforcing hard constraints within black-box deep learning models. ProbConserv provides uncertainty…

    AM Seminar with Dr. Truong Vu

    Presenter: Dr. Truong Vu, IPAM and MSU Description: We present a framework for the gradient flow of sharp-interface surface energies that couple to embedded curvature active agents. We use a penalty method to develop families of locally incompressible gradient flows that couple interface stretching or compression to local flux of interfacial mass. We establish the…
