Analytic and Geometric Approaches to Machine Learning
Organisers: Dr Matthew Thorpe (The University of Manchester)Dr Patricia Vitoria Carrera (Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona)
Dr Bamdad Hosseini (California Institute of Technology)
Funding: International Centre for Mathematical Sciences (ICMS)
Sponsor: Inistitute for Mathematial Innovation (IMI)
The aim of the workshop is to bring together researchers that apply mathematical methodology to machine learning. We particularly want to emphasise how mathematical theory can inform applications and vice versa.
This workshop is the first of two workshops on this topic. The second will be an in-person workshop to be held at ...

LMS-INI- Bath Summer School on K-Theory & Representation Theory
Organisers: Dr. Haluk Şengün, University of SheffieldProf. Roger Plymen, University of Manchester
Prof. Nigel Higson, PennState University
Funding: core funding from the Isaac Newton Institute (INI)
Sponsor: Institute for Mathematical Innovation (IMI)
This is the summer school part of the LMS-INI-Bath Symposium on K-theory and Representation Theory (which will take place in July 2022). In this summer school, we will cover material that is foundational to the upcoming symposium, namely, representation theory of real and p-adic Lie groups, the theory of C*-algebras and operator K-theory, and fi...

Machine Learning (ML) can described as statistical and numerical methods which underpin modern algorithms for detecting patterns and inference. A common theme to many activities in ML today is that mathematical models based on sample data are used to train algorithms to work on real data. Applications include self-driven cars, fraud detection, a...

Combinatorial Algebraic Geometry
Organisers: Johannes Hofscheier (Nottingham)Diane Maclagan (Warwick)
Gregory G. Smith (Queen's)
Funding: Funding from the London Mathematics Society (LMS)
Sponsor: Institute for Mathematical Innovation
This online summer school will be aimed at PhD students and postdocs in algebraic geometry. The core activity will be the three series of talks described below. There will also be lots of time for doing exercises! These will be complemented by accessible seminar talks and professional development activities.
