Dates marked with an asterisk correspond to [https://uwbadgers.com/sports/football/schedule home football games of the UW–Madison Badgers]. On these dates it can be difficult to get a hotel room close to campus at short notice.

Title: Taming Uncertainty in a Complex World: The Rise of Uncertainty Quantification -- A Tutorial for Beginners
== Archived semesters ==
 
I will provide a tutorial about uncertainty quantification (UQ) for those who have no background but are interested in learning more about this area. The talk will exploit many elementary examples, which are understandable to graduate students and senior undergraduates, to present the ideas of UQ. Topics include characterizing uncertainties using information theory, UQ in linear and nonlinear dynamical systems, UQ via data assimilation, the role of uncertainty in diagnostics, and UQ in advancing efficient modeling. The surprisingly simple examples in each topic explain why and how UQ is essential. Both Matlab and Python codes have been made available for these simple examples.

Title: Fine-grained Theory and Hybrid Algorithms for Randomized Numerical Linear Algebra
 
Randomized algorithms have gained increased prominence within numerical linear algebra and they play a key role in an ever-expanding range of problems driven by a breadth of scientific applications. In this talk we will explore two aspects of randomized algorithms by (1) providing experiments and accompanying theoretical analysis that demonstrate how their performance depends on matrix structures beyond singular values (such as coherence of singular subspaces), and (2) showing how to leverage those insights to build hybrid algorithms that blend favorable aspects of deterministic and randomized methods. A focus of this talk will be on methods that approximate matrices using subsets of columns. Relevant motivating applications will be discussed and numerical experiments will illuminate directions for further research.
