Imaging of Multiple Targets in Rician/Rayleigh Fading Media
Prof. Albert C. Fannjiang ( University of California, Davis, USA )2008 - 05 - 09 (Fri.)
11:10 - 12:00
308, Mathematics Research Center Building (ori. New Math. Bldg.)We consider imaging targets that are cluttered in a random medium. We assume only the phase information of the average Green function. We derive the stability condition NB > M for the time reversal imaging method where N is the number of antennas, B the number of frequencies and M the number of point targets. We demonstrate the method for a medium consisting of many randomly distributed particles.

Physics and mathematics of dispersive shocks: An introduction
Prof. Anatoly Kamchatnov ( Institute of Spectroscopy, Russian Academy of Science )2008 - 04 - 30 (Wed.)
15:30 - 17:20
405, Mathematics Research Center Building (ori. New Math. Bldg.)In this lecture, we will shall show that the KdV hierarchy has a Hamiltonian structure and all Hamiltonians commute with each other with respect to the Poisson bracket. This leads to notion of complete integrability of the KdV hierarchy equations. After that, we shall give a few simple applications of the developed theory: (1) derivation of periodic solutions (2) new simple derivation of Whitham equations (3) cnoidal wave solution of the whole hierarchy (4) Whitham equations for higher KdV equations.

An Eigenvector Variability Plot
Prof. I-Ping Tu ( Institute of Statistical Science , Academia Sinica )2008 - 04 - 29 (Tue.)
13:30 - 15:00
405, Mathematics Research Center Building (ori. New Math. Bldg.)Principal components analysis is perhaps the most widely used method for ex-ploring multivariate data. In this talk, we present a variability plot composed of measures on the stability of each eigenvectors over samples as a data exploration tool. We also show that this variability measure gives a good measure on the intersample variability of eigenvectors through asymptotic analysis. For distinct eigenvalues, the asymptotic behavior for this variability measure is comparable to the size of the asymptotic covariance of the eigenvector in Anderson (1963). A simulation for functional data analysis with dimension p greater than sample size n is provided. The proposed variability plot is successful to distinguish the signal components, noise components and 0 eigenvalue components. Applying this method on a gene expression data set for a gastric cancer study, many hills on the proposed variability plot are observed. When the intersample variability of eigenvectors is considered, the cuto point on informative eigenvectors should not be on the top of the hill as suggested by the proposed variability plot.
