Operator-Adapted Wavelets, Fast Solvers, and Numerical Homogenization: From a Game Theoretic Approach to Numerical Approximation and Algorithm Design

About Clint ScovelHouman Owhadi

Houman Owhadi is Professor of Applied and Computational Mathematics and Control and Dynamical Systems in the Computing and Mathematical Sciences department at the California Institute of Technology. He is one of the main editors of the Handbook of Uncertainty Quantification (2016). His research interests concern the exploration of interplays between numerical approximation statistical inference and learning from a game theoretic perspective especially the facilitation/automation possibilities emerging from these interplays. Clint Scovel is a Research Associate in the Computing and Mathematical Sciences department at the California Institute of Technology after a twenty-six-year career at Los Alamos National Laboratory including foundational research in symplectic algorithms and machine learning. He received his Ph.D. in mathematics from the Courant Institute of Mathematics at New York University in 1983. He currently works on uncertainty quantification Bayesian methods incorporating computational complexity in Wald's statistical decision theory operator adapted wavelets and fast solvers.
