University of Roma "La Sapienza"

Data-Driven Methods for Multi-Scale Physics and Complex Systems

 

We would like to announce a summer school and workshop focusing on emerging theoretical and computational methods at the intersection of data science, complex systems and networks.  The summer school and workshop will develop ideas from model reduction, data-assimilation, network theory, sparse sampling, equation-free methodologies, and machine learning with the goal of providing innovative tools for adaptively modeling and controlling complex, nonlinear processes. 

 

Workshop Plennary Speakers

 

Peter Benner (Max-Planck Institute, Magdeburg)
Computing parametric reduced-order models using projection and data

Bingni Brunton (Washington)
Data-intensive approaches to understanding neural computations underlying naturalistic behaviors

Claudio Castellano (ISC-CNR, Rome)
Epidemic spreading on complex networks

Bernard Haasdonk (Stuttgart)
Sparse surrogate modeling by greedy kernel approximation

Petros Koumoutsakos (ETH-Zurich)
