Kerri Morgan featured on podcast about the redevelopment of an introductory calculus unit
Kerri Morgan has been invited by Joan Sutherland to appear on her Tales of Teaching Online podcast. You can listen to it here: In Episode 36, Joan Sutherland speaks to Dr Kerri Morgan from Deakin’s School of Informational Technology about developing an inclusive introductory maths unit to help students connect with, and overcome anxiety about, […]
SIT-Deakin Excellence in Undergraduate Mathematics Program – Presentations Day 2021
Every year some of our undergraduate students produce outstanding work that exceeds expectations, by participating in summer research projects and/or as part of their coursework. In an effort to celebrate and promote their achievements, the maths team from the School of IT has organised the Deakin Excellence in Undergraduate Mathematics Program, which consists of two […]
Maths Seminar Series: Joanne Hall, RMIT – Non-technical skills needed by cyber security graduates
Wednesday 13 May 2020 – 11:00am – 12:00pm The Mathematics Research Lab welcomes Joanne Hall from RMIT to present some of her recent research on graduate skills. Abstract Technical cyber-defence is often insufficient to protect a system as most cyber security incidences involve a human who takes an erroneous action or regrettable decision. To address […]
Maths Seminar Series: Daniel Horsley, Monash University – Locating arrays and disjoint partitions
Wednesday 6 May 2020 – 11:00am – 12:00pm The Mathematics Research Lab welcomes Daniel Horsley from the School of Mathematics at Monash University to share his research. Abstract Covering arrays are combinatorial objects used for designing testing procedures to determine whether faults are present in complex systems. In particular, they are used extensively in software […]
Maths Seminar Series: Radko Mesiar, STU in Bratislava – Aggregation functions: recent results and trends, links to fuzzy set theory
Friday 14 February 2020 – 11:00am – 12:00pm The Mathematics Research Lab welcomes Radko Mesiar from STU in Bratislava to present his research (part of a double seminar). Abstract We bring an overview of some recent new concepts, results and trends in the aggregation theory. In particular, we focus on monotonicity issues in aggregation, including […]
Maths Seminar Series: Andreas Stathopoulos, College of William and Mary – State-of-the-art SVD for Big Data
Friday 14 February 2020 – 10:00am – 11:00am The Mathematics Research welcomes Andreas Stathopoulos from College of William and Mary to present his research (part of a double session). Abstract The singular value decomposition (SVD) is one of the core computations of today’s scien- tiic applications and data analysis tools. The main goal is to […]
Maths Seminar Series: Graham Farr, Monash University – Powerful Sets: A Generalisation of Binary Linear Spaces
Thursday 7 November 2019 – 2.00pm – 3.00pm The Mathematics Research Lab welcomes Graham Farr from Monash University to present his research. Abstract A set S of binary vectors, with positions indexed by E, is said to be a powerful code if, for all subsets X of E, the number of vectors in S that […]
Maths Seminar Series: Nadia Sukhorukova, Swinburne University of Technology – Optimisation in Real-Life Applications: Sleep and Disaster Management
Thursday 24 October, 2019 The Mathematics Research Lab welcomes Nadia Sukhorukova to present her research. Abstract In this presentation, Dr. Sukhorukova will talk about two large research projects. The irst project is application of optimisation to biomedical signal processing and classiication (done together with Dr. Zahra Roshan Zamir, graduated in December 2016). In this project […]
Maths Seminar Series: Hoa Bui Tui, Federation University – On Fréchet Subdifferential Calculus with Applications to Nonsmooth and Nonconvex Optimization
Thursday 12 September 2019, 2.00pm – 3.00pm The Maths Research Lab welcomes Hoa Bui Tui to present her research. Abstract Most of optimization problems and many fundamental objects frequently appearing in the framework of variational analysis are non-smooth and non-convex. When dealing with non-smoothness, generalized subdifferential calculus becomes inevitably crucial. In this talk, we briely […]
