This is a classic algorithmic task that arises when dealing with massive datasets. Its applications span many areas\, including information retrieval\, machine learning\, data mining\, computer vision\, signal processing\, bioinformatics\, etc. For example\, this task underlies the classic ‘nearest neighbor’ classification rule in machine learning. The natural solution for similarity search — to scan the entire dataset\, comparing a given item to each item in the dataset — is prohibitively slow for modern datasets. \nAlexandr Andoni will describe how efficient solutions for similarity search benefit from the tools and perspectives of high-dimensional geometry. The latter emerged as the natural language of similarity search: e.g.\, a 20 x 20 pixel image naturally corresponds to a 400-dimensional vector\, one coordinate per pixel. Andoni will show how geometric tools such as dimension reduction and randomized space partitions enable efficient similarity search algorithms. \nDr. Andoni is associate professor of computer science at Columbia University and a member of its Data Science Institute. Previously\, Andoni performed research at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology\, the Center for Computational Intractability (Princeton University\, New York University and the Institute for Advanced Study)\, Microsoft Research in Silicon Valley\, California\, and the Simons Institute for the Theory of Computing at the University of California\, Berkeley. Andoni focuses on advancing algorithmic foundations of massive data\, studying topics such as sublinear algorithms\, high-dimensional geometry\, metric embeddings and theoretical machine-learning.

Fischbach Auditorium\, 2nd Floor\n160 Fifth Avenue at 21st Street\nNew York\, NY 10010REGISTER HERE\nNote: Attendance is by invitation only.\nConference organizer: Jeffrey Harvey \nThe recognition that Calabi-Yau manifolds are fundamental for string compactification initiated a synthesis of geometry and string theory in the 1980s. This reinvigorated enumerative geometry\, reshaped Gromov-Witten theory\, and precipitated the development of new fields such as Donaldson-Thomas theory\, quantum cohomology and homological mirror symmetry. Contemporaneously\, efforts to unravel the mysteries of monstrous moonshine produced new algebraic theories which elucidated the role of automorphic forms in string theory and facilitated further developments in these and other fields. \nIn this century\, the connections between number theory\, geometry and string theory have deepened\, with developments in the theory of harmonic Maass forms\, the appearance of mock modular forms in enumerative geometry and string theory\, and new relationships between automorphic forms and arithmetic geometry. New forms of moonshine have illuminated new paths for exploration. \nThe Conference on Number Theory\, Geometry\, Moonshine & Strings is the first in a series of meetings that will bring together mathematicians and physicists to elucidate\, synthesize\, develop and disseminate these emerging relationships between number theory\, geometry\, moonshine and string theory. The first meeting will focus on exploring number theoretic and string theoretic aspects of some recently discovered half-integral weight forms of moonshine which exhibit connections to modularity of varieties and the Birch–Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture. \n\nAgenda\n\n\n\n\nWednesday\, September 6\n\n\n8:00 AM\nCHECK-IN & BREAKFAST\n\n\n9:00 AM\nProgram\n\n\n10:00 AM\nBREAK\n\n\n10:30 AM\nProgram\n\n\n11:30 AM\nProgram\n\n\n12:30 PM\nLUNCH\n\n\n2:00 PM\nProgram\n\n\n3:00 PM\nBREAK\n\n\n3:15 PM\nProgram\n\n\n4:15 PM\nTEA\n\n\n5:00 PM\nPublic Lecture\n\n\n6:00 PM\nDAY ONE CONCLUDES\n\n\nThursday\, September 7\n\n\n8:00 AM\nBREAKFAST\n\n\n9:00 AM\nProgram\n\n\n10:00 AM\nBREAK\n\n\n10:30 AM\nProgram\n\n\n11:30 AM\nProgram\n\n\n12:30 PM\nLUNCH\n\n\n2:00 PM\nProgram\n\n\n3:00 PM\nBREAK\n\n\n3:30 PM\nProgram\n\n\n4:30 PM\nDAY TWO CONCLUDES\n\n\nFriday\, September 8\n\n\n8:00 AM\nBREAKFAST\n\n\n9:00 AM\nProgram\n\n\n10:00 AM\nBREAK\n\n\n10:30 AM\nProgram\n\n\n11:30 AM\nProgram\n\n\n12:30 PM\nLUNCH\n\n\n1:30 PM\nProgram\n\n\n2:30 PM\nProgram\n\n\n3:30 PM\nMEETING CONCLUDES URL:https://www.simonsfoundation.org/event/conference-on-number-theory-geometry-moonshine-and-strings/ LOCATION:Gerald D.
