Abstract

Particle systems exhibit various dynamics such as collision, interaction, and collective motions that can lead to lots of applications in biology, physics, and engineering. One major modeling strategy is to start with individual-based models that consist of ordinary differential equations describing the dynamics of each particle due to physical laws, and then derive the mean-field and fluid models in the mesoscopic and macroscopic levels. The models in different scales are suitable for certain applications of great interest. We will present the classic theory on the connection between particle models and McKean-Vlasov equations, and discuss the open questions.

Deep learning of multi-scale PDEs based on data generated from particle methods
AbstractSolving multiscale PDEs is difficult in high dimensional and/or convection dominant cases. The Lagrangian computation, interacting particle method, is shown to outperform solving PDEs directly (Eulerian). Examples include computing effective diffusivities, KPP front speed, and asymptotic transport properties in topological insulators. However the particle simulation takes long before co...

[Seminar on Control theory and Nonlinear Filtering] Convergence Analysis of the Gaussian mixture particle filters
Abstract：In this talk, I will discuss in detail the convergence result of the Gaussian mixture particle filters, in which each particle in the estimation system is regarded as a Gaussian distributed random variable, rather than a simple particle as in the classical particle filters. The convergence rate of the particle system will be given. The relationship between the Gaussian mixture particl...
