Anastassiou This monograph is the continuation of author's earlier three monographs. Here we introduce the parametrized, deformed and general activation function neural networks. The parametrized activation function kills much less neurons than the original one. The asymmetry of the brain is best expressed by deformed activation functions. We provide also the related neural network theory using general activation functions. Thus, in this monograph all presented is original work by the author given at a very general level to cover a maximum number of different kinds of Neural Networks over a wide list of activation functions: giving ordinary, fractional, fuzzy and stochastic approximations. Namely it is presented here univariate, fractional and multivariate approximations. Iterated-sequential multi-layer approximations are also covered. The functions under approximation and neural networks are Banach space valued.

They rely on a decomposition of a matrix into sub-matrices of low numerical rank that can be represented efficiently in factorized form. Taking advantage of this representation, operations like the matrix-vector multiplication, matrix multiplication, inversion, factorization, evaluation of matrix functions or solution of matrix equations can be performed in almost linear complexity. The winter school is split into lectures and practical exercises. The lectures present the fundamental concepts and algorithms. The exercises use the H2Lib software package to allow the participants to experience the discussed methods first-hand and discuss specific questions with experts in the field. Participation at the site of the workshop is preferred. On request, online participation can be made possible. Limited funds will be available to support the participation of young scientists financially. If you are interested, please send a motivation letter and a supporting letter. Participants are requested to bring their own laptops capable of compiling and running programs written in C.

The School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences, part of The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, invites applications for up to two Presidential Postdoctoral Fellow positions, with an anticipated start in the 2024-2025 academic year. Fellows will conduct research in an area of data science, with expertise in computational mathematics, optimization, or statistics, with a faculty mentor in the School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences. The Fellows' activities will include production of relevant scholarly products, contributions to grant proposals, participation in the School's seminars, teaching up to two courses per year, and mentoring of students. Fellows will bring life experiences and expertise that promote diverse representation in the mathematical sciences. With grants from the National Science Foundation, National Institutes of Health, Department of Defense, National Security Agency and more, our mathematics and statistical sciences faculty are leading game-changing research, training, and education projects. In particular, the computational and statistics faculty at ASU have broad interdisciplinary data science interests in machine learning, artificial intelligence, and interpretation of large-scale data sets. The postdoctoral scholars selected will join a cohort of 10-15 other postdoctoral scholars at ASU as part of the Presidential Postdoctoral Fellowship Program. The goal of the program is to support the career development of outstanding Ph.D. recipients with great potential for advancing the ASU Charter into a future tenure track appointment at ASU. The program seeks applicants whose professional preparedness, experience, and accomplishments are informed by experiences working with and within groups historically underrepresented or underserved in higher education in the United States. Where pools of qualified applicants are strong, priority will be given to applicants who demonstrate, through prior actions and achievements, intentional and actioned commitment to inclusive excellence. Examples of such contributions are research, teaching, mentorship, service or creative activity focused on empowering underserved populations that increases equitable access and inclusion in fields where historically excluded populations are underrepresented. The School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences has committed to providing individualized mentorship and career development to ensure each candidate is well prepared to succeed in a future tenure track appointment. Career development and community building will also occur through programmatic support at the ASU Graduate College's Postdoctoral Affairs Office.

The research focus is on modeling and simulation of thin structures in nature and man-made systems. These structures display fascinating and often unexpected mechanical properties that enable countless applications, but have proven challenging to model and simulate. Within the projects we focus on multiphase field and phase field crystal models to resolve the individual building blocks and coarse grained models. Requirements: Successfully completed university degree (Master or equivalent) in mathematics, theoretical pysics or mechanics. Excellent knowledge in numerics for partial differential equations and/or differential geometry and/or physics and mechanics of thin structures and experience in scientific programming. The coordinated PhD program will be done in close coopreation with participating universities in Warwick (UK) and Gothenburg (Sweden). Please send full application inclucing a motivation for application, a CV, and copies of your certificates to Prof. Dr. Axel Voigt axel.voigt@tu- dresden.de until November 15th 2023. ------------------------------------------------------- From: Barbara Verfürth [log in to unmask] Date: October 10, 2023 Subject: PhD Position, Numerical Analysis, Univ of Bonn, Germany The Institute for Numerical Simulation (INS) is looking for a research assistant (75%, with possibility of obtaining a PhD) in the area of numerical analysis or a period of three years as soon as possible. The research group of Prof. Barbara Verfurth at University of Bonn is interested in the design and numerical analysis of computational multiscale methods. The candidate will work on the project "Homogenization of time-varying metamaterials", which is funded by DFG within the Collaborative Research Center 1173 Wave phenomena.
