Description

A central problem in data analysis is the low dimensional representation of high dimensional data, and the concise description of its underlying geometry and density. In the analysis of large scale simulations of complex dynamical systems, where the notion of time evolution comes into play, important problems are the identification of the slow variables and the representation of the reaction coordinates that parameterize them.

In this paper we provide a unifying view of these apparently different tasks, by considering a family of diffusion maps, defined as the embedding of complex data onto a low dimensional Euclidian space, via the eigenvectors of suitably normalized random walks defined on the given datasets. We show, both theoretically and by examples how this embedding can be used for dimensionality reduction, manifold learning, geometric analysis of complex data sets and fast simulations of stochastic dynamical systems. Joint work with R.R. Coifman, S. Lafon, M. Maggioni and I.G. Kevrekidis

Hi

where is this video?

Thanks :)

As usual: Gremlins ate the video so we cooked another one ;)
(Yeah, really, the video was recovered.)

This is a great lecture. Unfortunately, the camera work is so distracting as to make it unwatchable - are the original slides available anywhere?

Many conservatives still condemn https://bridesmaster.com/ international marriage agencies, openly calling them something prejudicial. People who allow themselves such judgments, in most cases, do not know how agencies work. Today an international marriage agency is your chance to get a Slavic mail order bride easily, at ease, and quickly. There is not a single reason not to take advantage of this wonderful opportunity.
