Tensor Computation Workshop

  • Organized by
  • Miles Stoudenmire, Ph.D.Research Scientist, CCQ, Flatiron Institute
Date & Time


This workshop brings together a small number of researchers from computer science; chemistry; and physics who develop and use high-performance tensor software.

Open to CCQ members and, due to space limitations, to others by invitation only.
