Workshop: Low-rank Optimization and Applications
Date: June 8 - 12, 2015
Venue: Mathematik-Zentrum, Lipschitz Lecture Hall, Endenicher Allee 60, Bonn
Organizers: Pierre-Antoine Absil, Daniel Kressner, André Uschmajew
Description: The problem of how to tackle problems of “high dimensionality” has become a research field of major importance in applied mathematics, statistics, signal processing, machine learning, complexity theory, and other fields. To a large extent this development is stimulated by the rapidly growing capacities of modern computers to collect and process data. One similarity between different communities are model reducing assumptions that involve notions of low-rank, sparsity, or other kinds of separability. They lead to deep theoretical questions at the intersection of geometry and approximation theory, require novel optimization methods, and pose challenging tasks on the level of implementation.
The topic of this workshop is low-rank approximation techniques with an emphasis on tensors, optimization theory, and applications in data processing and scientific computing.
The goal is to foster collaboration and exchange knowledge from the different areas.
