Research and other activities
- Asymptotic analysis and numerical simulation with passive tracer problems (partial differential equations)
- Analysis of *omics data associated with host dynamics of infectious disease (L1 regularization; bioinformatic data wrangling)
- Analysis of time series data for within-host dynamics of infectious disease (anomaly detection; health scoring; clustering; multimodal data analysis)
- Algorithm development for applied topological data analysis (mostly interested in generators)
- Mathematical modeling, spectral/network methods, machine learning; data visualization
- Tool development associated with analysis of police activity and use of force
- Network models of synchronization; polarization
- Machine learning of differential equations from data; related constrained sparse optimization problems
- Freelance writing: mainly for SIAM News. See my profile there.
Teaching
I typically teach:- Programming for computational mathematics
- Linear algebra
- Differential equations
- Numerical analysis
- Mathematical modeling
I also have a small thing for integrating historical documents to enrich my teaching and students' learning.
