Events
CILVR Seminar: Large learning rate in matrix recovery problems | Data-driven multiscale modeling of subgrid parameterizations in climate models
Speaker: Lei Chen and Karl Otness
Location: 60 Fifth Avenue, Room 7th floor common area
Date: Thursday, October 5, 2023
Abstract for Lei’s talk:
Lei will introduce some of his ongoing research on optimization instability and implicit bias. He will introduce the setting of Edge of Stability, where the sharpness of loss landscape is beyond the stability threshold. Then he will talk about the implicit bias of large learning rates in matrix factorization and matrix sensing.

Abstract for Karl’s talk:
Subgrid parameterizations, which represent physical processes occurring below the resolution of current climate models, are an important component in producing accurate, long-term predictions for the climate. Recent works have proposed a variety of machine learning approaches to modeling these unresolved dynamics. In this talk I will present this research problem and discuss an ongoing project investigating a multiscale, deep learning-based approach to this task.
