Math just got cooler!

We attended STEM Night at Hunter elementary school. Our team, including our president, officers and members, led an unforgettable night filled with:

Puzzles, games & fun!

Check out the highlights!

🥳🥳Join the Fun and Fundraise with SIAM🥳🥳

As proud SIAM members, we love stepping outside the box to participate in activities that not only help raise funds for our society but also foster a sense of community! Our recent ticket scanning event was a fantastic way to contribute to important initiatives like SCUDEM, SIAM socials, and our upcoming outreach programs.

Not only did we support our chapter, but we also enjoyed a wonderful opportunity to bond and network outside our usual Tuesday meetings. A heartfelt thank you to all our SIAM members and officers who showed up and made this event a success!

We encourage all members to take advantage of such events—they are a great way to help contribute to the SIAM BSU chapter while having fun! Plus, who doesn’t love free perks. After the ticket scanning, we got to watch a game for free., and our dinner was covered with delicious free food!

Let’s continue to build our SIAM community. Please keep an eye out for more events coming your way!

Exciting Insights at SIAM!

Have you noticed how diverse our discussions are in the field of applied mathematics? Recently, we had the pleasure of learning from Dr Michael Perlmutter, who delved into the world of regression. While you may be familiar with the term, Dr. Perlmutter took us deeper into its application within machine learning, covering essential topics like classification and logistic regression.

We know you want to hear more about these insightful talks, so remember to join us every Tuesday! Our sessions are designed to enrich your understanding and spark new ideas in applied mathematics.

A big thank you to Dr Michael Perlmutter for his engaging presentation!

Looking forward to seeing you all this Tuesday!

Recap: Distinguished Lecture by Dr Stephan Wild on Optimization and Learning

We were thrilled to host Dr. Stephan Wild for an insightful Distinguished Lecture on “Optimization and Learning with Zeroth-Order Stochastic Oracles”. This session dived into an especially challenging area of data-driven science and engineering: how to effectively work with noisy oracles that aren’t suited for differentiable programming.

Dr. Wild shared groundbreaking approaches for tackling problems where only noisy feedback is available and traditional gradient-based methods fall short. He discussed innovative strategies that:

1) Improve scalability in zeroth-order optimization, especially under noisy conditions.
2) Utilize randomized subspaces and adaptive estimates to refine results iteratively.

This was such an incredible opportunity to explore advanced optimization techniques in data science and engineering anyway do you want to hear more😉? Join us every Tuesday for more seminars and lectures—don’t miss a day!

Thank you to everyone who attended!
