DESCRIPTION:
 Applied Mathematics\n
 \n
 David P. Woodruff, Carnegie 
 Mellon University, will be speaking.\n
 \n
 Th epresentation is titled "A Very Sketchy Talk."\n
 \n
 Contact 
 Olga Turanova (turanova@msu.edu) 
 for more information.\n
 \n
 We give an overview 
 of dimensionality reduction methods, or sketching, 
 for a number of problems in optimization, 
 first surveying work using these methods 
 for classical problems, which gives near optimal 
 algorithms for regression, low rank approximation, 
 and natural variants. We then survey 
 recent work applying sketching to column 
 subset selection, kernel methods, sublinear 
 algorithms for structured matrices, tensors, 
 trace estimation, and so on. The focus in the 
 talk will be on fast algorithms.\n\n
