This software is a collection of computational kernels and user interfaces for various types of non-intrusive UQ analysis such as - uncertainty analysis - dimension reduction - response surface analysis - local/global sensitivity analysis - statistical inferences - optimization/optimization under uncertainty - optimal experimental design - tools for visualizing UQ analysis results The software can be downloaded from https://github.com/LLNL/psuade ------------------------------------------------------- From: Felix Lucka [log in to unmask] Date: September 11, 2023 Subject: X-ray CT Data Set for Machine Learning We recently published a large 2D expandable, trainable, experimental Computed Tomography data collection for machine learning (2DeteCT). A diverse mix of samples with high natural variability in shape and density mimicking abdominal CT was scanned slice-by-slice (5,000 slices in total) with high angular and spatial resolution and three different beam characteristics: A high-fidelity, a low-dose and a beam-hardening- inflicted mode. Our aim was to provide the computational imaging community with a versatile data collection for the development and evaluation of both classical and learned CT image reconstruction algorithms. The 2DeteCT data collection includes: the raw-projection data (sinograms) of the three acquisition modes (low dose, high dose, unfiltered); description of the scanning geometry; pre-processing, reconstruction and segmentation scripts; iterative reference reconstructions; four-class reference segmentations. The corresponding "Data Descriptor" paper is published in "Nature Scientific Data" under https://www.nature.com/articles/s41597-023- 02484-6. The dataset can be found on zenodo at https://zenodo.org/record/8014758 and all other links contained in the description of the data upload. The corresponding collection of Python scripts for loading, pre-processing, reconstructing and segmenting the X-ray CT projection data of the 2DeteCT data collection can be found at https://github.com/mbkiss/2DeteCTcodes . If you have any comments about the dataset, your feedback is highly appreciated! ------------------------------------------------------- From: Mitch Graham [log in to unmask] Date: September 15, 2023 Subject: New Book, Calculus for the Natural Sciences Calculus for the Natural Sciences by Michel Helfgott In this textbook on calculus of one variable, applications to the natural sciences play a central role. Examples from biology, chemistry, and physics are discussed in detail without compromising the mathematical aspects essential to learning differential and integral calculus. Calculus for the Natural Sciences distinguishes itself from other textbooks on the topic by: "balancing theory, mathematical techniques, and applications to motivate students and bridge the gap between mathematics and the natural sciences and engineering; "employing real data to convey the main ideas underlying the scientific method; and "using SageMath and R to perform calculations and write short programs, thus giving the teacher more time to explain important concepts. This textbook is intended for first-year students in mathematics, engineering, and the natural sciences and is appropriate for a two- semester course on calculus I and II (freshman calculus of one variable). It can also be used for self-study by engineers and natural scientists. 2023 / xii + 444 pages / Softcover / 978-1-61197-768-4 / List $94 / SIAM Member $65.80 / OT194 Bookstore link: https://my.siam.org/Store/Product/viewproduct/?ProductId=49037871 ------------------------------------------------------- From: Mitch Graham [log in to unmask] Date: September 15, 2023 Subject: New Book, Classical Analysis of Real-Valued Functions Classical Analysis of Real-Valued Functions by V.S. Serov Divided into two self-contained parts, this textbook is an introduction to modern real analysis. More than 350 exercises and 100 examples are integrated into the text to help clarify the theoretical considerations and the practical applications to differential geometry, Fourier series, differential equations, and other subjects. The first part of Classical Analysis of Real-Valued Functions covers the theorems of existence of supremum and infimum of bounded sets on the real line and the Lagrange formula for differentiable functions. Applications of these results are crucial for classical mathematical analysis, and many are threaded through the text. In the second part of the book, the implicit function theorem plays a central role, while the Gauss-Ostrogradskii formula, surface integration, Heine-Borel lemma, the Ascoli-Arzela theorem, and the one-dimensional indefinite Lebesgue integral are also covered. This book is intended for first and second year students majoring in mathematics although students of engineering disciplines will also gain important and helpful insights. It is appropriate for courses in mathematical analysis, functional analysis, real analysis, and calculus and can be used for self-study as well. 2023 / x + 412 pages / Softcover / 978-1-61197-766-0 / List $94.00 / SIAM Member $65.80 / OT193 Bookstore Link: https://my.siam.org/Store/Product/viewproduct/?ProductId=47622334 ------------------------------------------------------- From: Dimitrios Mitsotakis [log in to unmask] Date: August 23, 2023 Subject: New Book, Computational Mathematics Computational Mathematics: An introduction to Numerical Analysis and Scientific Computing by Dimitrios Mitsotakis This textbook is a comprehensive introduction to computational mathematics and scientific computing suitable for undergraduate and postgraduate courses.

Some are familiar with Chandler's 1954 hearing before a subcommittee of the House Un-American Activities Committee where he asserted the First Amendment to justify his refusal to answer questions about his Communist associations. In the midst of the McCarthyism hysteria he was then fired by the University of Michigan, blacklisted by American universities, convicted of contempt of Congress, and sentenced to six months in federal prison. This book examines Chandler's ordeal. The research relies on archival records from the Bentley Historical Library at the University of Michigan, the House Un-American Activities Committee, the FBI (via Freedom of Information Act request) and former Supreme Court justices at the Library of Congress and other repositories. Special features of the book are deep dives into the University of Michigan's enabling of McCarthyism and the role of Justice Felix Frankfurter in court cases that eventually determined Chandler's fate on a 5-4 decision in a related case. The book is available in paper, cloth, and ebook from Amazon and other booksellers.

Ingrained in physical laws and engineering principles, these schemes have played a pivotal role in providing quantitative insights of complex phenomena including electrodynamics, heat transfer, and photonics, but due to their computational complexity their use was restricted exclusively to offline simulation. To serve the needs of modern engineering, like AI, IoT and digital twins, these schemes must be redesigned to become more agile and suitable for online and edge (in-situ) computing. This transformation requires (i) a capability to perform model prediction/calibration at arbitrary scale (up to a few billion parameters), (ii) a capability to operate with low storage/energy resources (embedded within battery operated processing units), (iii) extending their prediction skill by augmenting with non-physics (data driven) model extensions, and (iv) execution in almost real-time to inform decision making processes. To provide robust solutions to these challenges one must exploit the inherent structures of the FEM/FDTD schemes in order to dramatically reduce their computational complexity and allow speed ups of 1000x or more without a significant compromise (< 1%) in their accuracy or increase in prediction uncertainty. An approach to enable such a transformational research is to utilize the framework of randomised numerical linear algebra (aka randomized sketching) whilst leveraging algorithms from deep learning research (e.g. learned continuous operators). Randomised algebra provides a prudent way to "replace" expensive matrix-vector operations of extremely large dimension with simple-to-implement random projections or sample-based estimators that utilize only a tiny fraction of the available data/computational objects. The project will focus on the numerical solution of the wave equation that underpins a multitude of physical phenomena and consider its application in the context of modelling data from a sensor network. This research will lead to significant advances in the areas of edge computing, and machine learning for science/engineering. ------------------------------------------------------- From: Jose [log in to unmask] Date: September 07, 2023 Subject: PhD Positions, Computational Science, SDSU UCI, USA The Interdisciplinary Ph.D.Program in Computational Science is aimed at training scientists and engineers who will create advanced computational methods and tools to model and solve challenging problems at the intersections of scientific disciplines.
