Uncertainty Quantification
Variational inference, diffusion, Monte Carlo, Kalman methods, Langevin and Hamiltonian dynamics, rare events, and simulation based inference.
Course materialsMy courses connect rigorous mathematical foundations with modern computational practice, emphasizing how assumptions, algorithms, and empirical behavior fit together.
Course pages preserve lecture notes, assignments, and reference material from the original offerings.
Variational inference, diffusion, Monte Carlo, Kalman methods, Langevin and Hamiltonian dynamics, rare events, and simulation based inference.
Course materialsRegression, uncertainty, resampling, model interpretation, and the statistical workflow from assumptions to diagnosis.
Course materialsOptimization, generalization, kernels, neural networks, generative models, and the mathematical foundations of modern learning.
Course materialsLinear systems, geometry, eigenvalues, singular values, least squares, and computational interpretations.
Course materialsProbability, stochastic processes, optimal transport, diffusion, sequential inference, and inference time computation.
Approximation, PDE learning, operator learning, physics informed models, uncertainty quantification, and scaling laws.
Students should understand what a method estimates, what information it uses, and what can fundamentally go wrong before they memorize an algorithm.
Derivations are paired with experiments that reveal scaling, stability, and approximation behavior. The computation is part of the argument.
Open ended projects ask students to formulate a precise question, defend their evaluation, and explain what evidence would change their conclusion.
