SEMINAR CORNER for Applied
Mathematics, Statistics
and Computing graduates.
- Computer
Algebra- Statistics seminars 2008-09
at UNS: from September 2008,
Time:
17:45 till 19:40, every Thursday
Place: room F207,
University of Science (US), 227 Nguyen Van Cu str., Dist. 5, HCMC
The initial base:
The core theme will be Algebraically
and Statistically Modeling of various problems in
computing, operations research, finance, economics,
computational biology, experiment designs
...
The research seminars focus on using Mathematical and
Statistical Techniques to handle/solve practical problems.
Feassible
developments:
Here are some detailed project proposals towards a Master
degree in Applied Mathematics and Statistics.
Depending on the project content, from February 2009, you
could apply for
working toward
* a Mathematics and Statistics
based
degree at the Mathematics and Computing Fac. of US, or
* a Computer Science based degree at
CSE - HCMUT
For interesting but challenging topics, it is possible to
have
dual advisors.
If you are good (technical, English
and communication),
the change to work with a foreign
professor is high!
Project
1: (Algebraic Statistics)
Algebraic Coding of Fractional Factorial Designs
Remark:
would be a nice work if you are very good in Algebra
Dual advisor: from Math Fac. of Politecnico di
Torino – DIMAT, Torino, Italy
Project
2: (Data Analysis)
Density
Estimation From Interval Data
Remark: would
be a nice work if you know a bit of
polynomial
computing, PCA (principal component analysis), CFA
(confirmary factor analysis) ...
Dual advisor: from FPT Univ., HCMC, Vietnam
Project
3: (Mathematical Biology)
Compartmental models of the Spread of SARS
Remark:
would be a very beautiful but tough work, require a little Partial
Differential Equations
Dual advisor: from Garvan Institute of Medical Research,
Sudney, Australia [to be
confirmed]
Project 4:
(Methods for Design of Experiments)
Number Theory Methods for the
Construction of Hadamard Designs
Remark:
would be a sophisticated work, requires Algebra, Combinatorics and
Programming
Dual advisor: from Montana State
University, USA
Project 5:
(Statistical Optimization)
Methods for Dynamic Project
Control
Remark:
requires statistical formulation and simulation. Good and tough work!
Dual advisor: from DIMAT, Torino, Italy
- My former graduates at UT in
DOE, Discrete
