Extractions: Program available Proceedings Participants We are pleased to announce the eleventh in a series of annual fall workshops on Computational Geometry. This workshop series, founded originally under the sponsorship of the Mathematical Sciences Institute (MSI) at Stony Brook (with funding from the U. S. Army Research Office), continued during 1996-1999 under the sponsorship of the Center for Geometric Computing, a collaborative center of Brown, Duke, and Johns Hopkins Universities, also funded by the U.S. Army Research Office. In 2000, for the tenth in the workshop series, the workshop was again held on the campus of the University at Stony Brook. This year, for the first time, it will be held at Polytechnic University in Brooklyn. The aim of this workshop is to bring together students and researchers from academia and industry, to stimulate collaboration on problems of common interest arising in geometric computations. Topics to be covered include, but are not limited to: Algorithmic methods in geometry I/O-scalable geometric algorithms Animation of geometric algorithms Computer graphics Solid modeling Geographic information systems Computational metrology Graph drawing Experimental studies Geometric data structures Implementation issues Robustness in geometric computations Computer vision Robotics Computer-aided design Mesh generation Manufacturing applications of geometry
Extractions: Geometry and representation theory of tensors for computer science, statistics and other areas July 21 to July 25, 2008 at the American Institute of Mathematics , Palo Alto, California organized by Joseph Landsberg, Lek-Heng Lim, Jason Morton, and Jerzy Weyman This workshop, sponsored by AIM and the NSF , will be devoted to translating questions from quantum computing, complexity theory, statistical learning theory, signal processing, and data analysis to problems in geometry and representation theory. In all these areas varieties in spaces of tensors invariant under linear changes of coordinates appear as central objects of study. Despite their different origins, there are striking similarities among the relevant varieties and this workshop will study ways of approaching questions such as finding defining equations, hidden symmetries, and singularities. The main topics for the workshop are Geometric approaches to P?=NP Algebraic statistics, particularly hidden variable models Multi-linear techniques in data analysis and signal processing Entanglement in quantum information theory By the end of the workshop, researchers in the relevant areas will be up to date on what is known about their questions from a geometric perspective and geometers will have a list of open questions to work on. We hope this workshop is the beginning of collaborations between mathematicians and researchers in the targeted areas.

As an example, here is a frequently depicted lusona (from www.tacomacc.edu/home/jkellerrn/Ethnomath/Sona.htm Paulus Gerdes is a well-known ethnomathematician, mathematics educator, and mathematician who, in numerous books and articles, has shown us the mathematics in African art and culture. In Sona Geometry, Gerdes reveals the sophisticated mathematics underlying the sona. Sona Geometry begins with ethnographical data about the Cokwe people and the sona tradition. Included in this discussion are references to the published collections of sona. These chapters are skimpy from an anthropological point of view, but set the stage for Gerdes' primary focus - mathematics. Sona Geometry concludes with an appendix of mathematical research inspired by the sona tradition. Here Gerdes includes mirror curves, Lunda designs, Liki matrices, and cycle matrices.

The aim is to gather researchers in discrete geometry and topology, discrete models, with applications in image analysis and image synthesis. Discrete geometry plays an expanding role in the fields of shape modelling, image synthesis, and image analysis. It deals with topological and geometric definitions of digitized objects or digitized images and provides both a theoretical and computational framework for computer imaging.

Extractions: Russell Poldrack (UCLA) This second one-week course will cover the mathematics of functional brain imaging. Diverse mathematical techniques are now widely used for analyzing functional images of the brain. These include the analysis of time-series of images from functional MRI scanning, positron emission tomography, as well as MEG, EEG, and optical imaging of the cortex. Each technique has given rise to sophisticated mathematics for detecting and analyzing the underlying features in these images. Methods will be outlined for Bayesian analysis of fMRI time-series, as well as statistical analysis using ICA and PCA, random field theory, and integration of multiple functional brain imaging techniques.

ARCC Workshop: Statistical Inferences On Shape Manifolds Workshop on algorithmic and computational shape analysis. AIM Research Conference Center (ARCC), Palo Alto, CA, USA; 69 May 2005. http://aimath.org/ARCC/workshops/shapemanifolds.html
Extractions: Statistical Inferences on Shape Manifolds May 6 to May 9, 2005 at the American Institute of Mathematics , Palo Alto, California organized by Washington Mio David Mumford , and Anuj Srivastava This workshop, sponsored by AIM and the NSF , will be devoted to algorithmic and computational shape analysis. It will bring together researchers in the field of shape analysis to identify and discuss outstanding issues in algorithmic shape representation, statistical inferences on shape manifolds, and applications to areas such as medical imaging, homeland security and military target recognition. Algorithmic shape analysis has a multidisciplinary nature, so the workshop will seek to promote interaction and foster the development of new collaborations among researchers with expertise in mathematics, statistics and image analysis. The main topics for the workshop are: The workshop will differ from typical conferences in some regards. Participants will be invited to suggest open problems and questions before the workshop begins, and these will be posted on the workshop website. These include specific problems on which there is hope of making some progress during the workshop, as well as more ambitious problems which may influence the future activity of the field. Lectures at the workshop will be focused on familiarizing the participants with the background material leading up to specific problems, and the schedule will include discussion and working sessions.
Extractions: The 20th Canadian Conference on Computational Geometry August 13-15, 2008 The Canadian Conference on Computational Geometry (CCCG) was founded in 1989 by a group of computer scientists with a passion for computational and combinatorial geometry. The first meeting was conceived by David Avis and Godfried Toussaint . It was held at McGill University in Montreal and hosted over 180 attendees from different countries across the globe. The opening lecture of this first conference was given by . This year, the opening will be given by one of his close friends Ron Graham CCCG is held annually to this day at various universities across Canada. These annual meetings attract a large number of students and have the informal atmosphere of small workshops despite their size. The conference concentrates on both theoretical and applied results on problems that have geometric nature. The main focus is on problems in discrete and computational geometry with solutions that range from efficient algorithms to abstract mathematical results. This year, the 20th Canadian Conference on Computational Geometry will be held between August 1315, 2008 at
