Maths education seminar: Jonas Latz an analogy between machine learning and a child learning through a game
Speaker: Jonas Latz (University of Manchester) Title: Machine Learning is (not) child’s play Abstract: Machine learning describes the generation of an artificial intelligence (AI) through data. The terminology creates an analogy between this process and the learning in intelligent beings: An analogy that has been criticised as inaccurate in..
Logic Seminar - Leo Gitin
Speaker: Leo Gitin (University of Oxford) Infinitary methods in valuative algebra Infinitary logic is a well-established extension of "ordinary" first-order logic, which flourished in the 60s and 70s. Its usefulness for algebraic applications has been recognised by many, though now it is less commonly used for such purposes. We explain that..
Pure maths colloquium - Bethany Marsh
Speaker: Bethany Marsh (University of Leeds) Title: Additive friezes Abstract: Joint work with Asilat Bapat, Véronique Bazier-Matte, Eleonore Faber, Kunda Kambaso and Yadir Valdivieso. Shephard pointed out in 1976 that the addition table for the natural numbers, when drawn in the right way, has the property that each 2 by 2 submatrix has d..
