Joint Asymptotics and Inferences for Partly Linear Models April 4, 2012 3:30 p.m. Guang Cheng Abstract Partly linear models provide a useful class of tools for modeling complex data by naturally incorporating a combination of linear and nonlinear effects within one framework. This talk will focus on the joint asymptotics and inferences for both Euclidean […]
Adaptive Graph Regularized Nonnegative Matrix Factorization Via Feature Selection November 28, 2012 9:30 a.m. Dr. Jingyan Wang Abstract Nonnegative Matrix Factorization (NMF), a popular compact data representation method, fails to discover the intrinsic geometrical structure of the data space. Graph regularized NMF (GrNMF) is proposed to avoid this limitation by regularizing NMF with a nearest […]
An Axiomatic and Data Driven View on the EPK Paradox December 10, 2012 10:00 a.m. Dr. Maria Grith Abstract Supported by several recent investigations, the empirical pricing kernel (EPK) paradox might be considered as a stylized fact. Some authors suggest that this paradox might be caused by regime switching in financial markets. Based on an […]

Understanding Soot Growth Turbulent Nonpremixed Glames via Direct Numerical Simulation and Lagrangian Statistics October 29, 2012 2:00 p.m. Dr. Fabrizio Bisetti Abstract Particulate emissions from combustion devices endanger population health and have adverse effects on the environment. The formation and growth of soot in n-heptane/air turbulent non-premixed jet flames is investigated by performing a set […]
