MAGIC launch lecture 2016:
Topology, Machine Learning and Statistics: three faces of data. (J. Brodski, University of Southampton)
In recent years, topology has emerged as a new approach to analysis of complex data, and has provided some very interesting ideas and methodologies that have led to interesting results in genomics, medicine, mathematical biology, and others. In this talk I shall describe how topology interacts with machine learning and statistics, and how this exciting synthesis may advance research in data science.
All are welcome to join this general interest lecture that will be in the MAGICPUBLIC virtual room.

An orientation preserving piecewise isometry T is a collection of two or more rotations or translations defined on mutually disjoint polygonal domains in the plane. Iteration of T leads to behavior that is intriguing and beautiful, especially as seen through the graphics of a partition into cells which do not get broken up by the iteration process. Despite twenty year efforts to understand the dynamics of T, we are far from a thorough understanding it. In this talk I will attempt to engage audience to use their intuition from classical continuous dynamics in order to derive a few results about the dynamics of T. In particular we will focus on the dynamics of a cone-strip exchange and use basic measure arguments.
This series of occasional seminars is intended for those interested in Nonlinear Dynamics and Dynamical Systems who have Access Grid facilities (as used in the MAGIC network).
