SUMMARY:The ParaDiag Algorithm
DESCRIPTION:Instructors/Speakers\nProf. Shu-Lin WU\nProfessor\nSchool of Mathematics and Statistics\nNortheast Normal University\nChangchun\, Jilin\, China \nAbstract\nThe mainstream parallel-in-time (PinT) algorithms\, such as parareal and MGRiT\, cannot efficiently handle the wave propagation problems\, due to the poor convergence rate (or even divergence). New PinT algorithms are proposed in recent years and have shown promising advantages. These new PinT algorithms are called ParaDiag\, which was permitted in 2020 by the PinT scientific committee to show and popularize on the homepage of this filed (http://parallel-in-time.org/codes/paradiag.html). In this talk we will discuss some variants and introduce some basic theoretical results. \nBiography\nProf. Shulin WU obtained his Ph.D. degree in Huazhong University of Science and Technology in 2010. From 2010 to 2016\, he did post-doctoral research at University of Electronic Science and Technology of China\, University Of Geneva and The Hong Kong Polytechnic University. His research interests are Parallel-in-Time algorithms\, waveform relaxation\, numerical analysis of DLCP/DNCP problems and numerical wave propagation. Prof. Wu Shulin works as a Professor at Northeast Normal University now\, published more than 30 papers on many international famous SCI journals of computing\, such as J. Comp. Phys.\, J. Sci. Comp.\, SIAM J. Control and Optimization. \n

SUMMARY:High-dimensional vector autoregressive time series modeling via tensor decomposition
DESCRIPTION:Instructors/Speakers\nProf. Guodong LI\nAssociate Professor\nDepartment of Statistics & Actuarial Science\nUniversity of Hong Kong\nHong Kong \nAbstract\nThe classical vector autoregressive model is a fundamental tool for multivariate time series analysis. However\, it involves too many parameters when the number of time series and lag order are even moderately large. This paper proposes to rearrange the coefficient matrices of the model into a tensor form such that the parameter space can be restricted in three directions simultaneously via tensor decomposition. The proposed method substantially expands the capacity of vector autoregressive modeling for a large number of time series. In contrast\, the widely used reduced-rank regression method can restrict the parameter space in only one direction. Moreover\, to handle high-dimensional time series\, this paper considers imposing sparsity on factor matrices to improve the interpretability and estimation efficiency\, which leads to a sparsity-inducing estimator. For the low-dimensional case\, we derive asymptotic properties of the proposed least squares estimator and introduce an alternating least squares algorithm. For the high-dimensional case\, we establish non-asymptotic properties of the sparsity-inducing estimator and propose an ADMM-based algorithm for regularized estimation. Simulation experiments and a real data example demonstrate the advantages of the proposed approach over various existing methods. \nBiography\nProf. Li received his PhD at The University of Hong Kong and is an associate professor at The University of Hong Kong. Prof. Li research fields include high dimensional statistics\, econometrics\, machine learning. He has published nearly 50 papers on international journals such as Annals of Statistics\, JRSS-B\, Biometrika\, JASA and so on. \n

SUMMARY:Deep Feature Encoding for Age-invariant Face Recognition
DESCRIPTION:Instructors/Speakers\nProf. Kin-Man LAM\nThe Hong Kong Polytechnic University \nAbstract\nFacial aging variation is a major problem for face recognition systems\, due to large intra-personal variations caused by age progression. A major challenge is to develop an efficient\, discriminative feature representation and matching framework\, which is robust to facial aging variations. In this talk\, we will present a robust deep-feature encoding-based discriminative model for age-invariant face recognition. Our method learns high-level deep features using a pretrained deep-CNN model. These features are then encoded by learning a codebook with S codewords or atoms\, which converts each of the features into a discriminant S-dimensional codeword for image representation. By incorporating the locality information in the whole learning process\, a closed-form solution is obtained for both the codebook-updating and encoding stages. Furthermore\, as the features of the same person at different ages should have certain correlations\, canonical correlation analysis is utilized to fuse the pair of training features from the same person\, but at two different ages\, to make the codebook discriminative in terms of age progression. In the testing stage\, the gallery and query image’s features are encoded using the learned codebook. Then\, linear mapping based on linear regression is employed for face matching. We will present the performance of the method on three publicly available challenging facial aging datasets\, FGNET\, MORPH Album 2\, and Large Age-Gap. \nBiography\nProf. Kin-Man Lam received his Associateship in Electronic Engineering with distinction from the Hong Kong Polytechnic University (formerly called Hong Kong Polytechnic) in 1986.

SUMMARY:New Developments in Lithium Niobate Nanophotonics
DESCRIPTION:Instructors/Speakers\nDr. Maria-Pilar BERNAL\nResearch Director of FEMTO-ST (Franche-Comté Electronics Mechanics Thermal Science and Optics-Sciences and Technologies) Institute\nCNRS (National Scientific Research Center)\nFrance \nAbstract\nThe optics community has used since decades lithium niobate material for various application like optical modulation\, lasers\, acousto-optical devices etc. Due to its multi-physical nature (it possesses high electro-optic\, acousto-optical\, photorefractive\, pyroelectric\, and nonlinear coefficients)\, it is rather straightforward to imagine a lithium niobate chip in which thousands of optical functions could be incorporated. In this talk\, work that Dr. Bernal’s group at CNRS has been doing since the last 10 years in order to achieve this goal will be presented. Different active optical functions based on lithium niobate photonic crystals and plasmonic nanostructures combined with lithium niobate will be presented. The possibility of currently working with lithium niobate thin films on SiO2 has allowed us to radically improve the optical performances of these devices. Results of novel photonic nanostructures based on single crystal lithium niobate will be shown. \nBiography\nDr. Maria-Pilar Bernal received her Bachelor degree in physics at University of Zaragoza\, Spain in 1993. In the year of 1998\, she obtained her doctoral degree in physics through a joint study program between University of Zaragoza and IBM Research-Almaden in California USA. She then worked as a postdoctoral fellow in EPFL Switzerland on near-field and nano optics for about three years which began from September 1998. Since 2003\, she worked as a researcher in FEMTO-ST institute CNRS(法國國家科研中心). Currently she is the Directrice of FEMTO-ST institute in Besancon. Her research works include electro-optic exaltation and nonlinear effect enhancement in lithium niobate photonics. She also works on plasmonics such as utilizing annular aperture array structure for extraordinary optical transmission and other sensing applications. She had already been the responsible person for various projects such as ANR(法國科研署)\, DGA(法國國防部)\, ERC(歐盟研究中心) and DARPA etc. She had already been invited to give talks for ten more conferences\, published one book chapter and patented an USA patent on optical information storage system. She has been author or coauthors of over 100 papers. \n

SUMMARY:Novel Mg-based Amorphous Alloys and Nanocomposites Induced from Amorphous Alloys for Hydrogen Storage
DESCRIPTION:Instructors/Speakers\nProf. Huai-Jun LIN\nAssociate Professor of Institute of Advanced Wear & Corrosion Resistance and Functional Materials\nJinan University\nChina \nAbstract\nMgH2 has been widely considered as a promising candidate for hydrogen storage because it stores 7.6 wt% of hydrogen\, however thermodynamics and kinetics for hydrogen absorption and desorption are not well satisfied. Abundant efforts have been devoted to prepare nanostructured Mg-based materials with enhanced hydrogen storage. Although kinetics improvements could be well achieved\, thermodynamics issues are remained in Mg-based hydrogen storage materials. \nWe attempted to prepare novel Mg-based amorphous alloys for hydrogen storage applications. The results could be summarized as follows: (1) A hydrogen-induced glass-to-glass transition in Mg-Ce-Ni amorphous alloys with a storage capacity of 5 wt%-H is reported. The hydrogen storage capacity of amorphous hydrides is obviously higher than that of their crystalline counterparts owing to the free volume and disordered atomic structure associated with glasses. (2) The dehydrogenation temperature of the amorphous hydrides can be efficiently tuned as it shows a close relationship with the enthalpy of mixing between the alloying element and hydrogen. (3) Further study on the five-component Mg60Ce10Ni20Cu5X5 (X = Co\, Zn) amorphous alloys shows that addition of Co greatly improves the hydrogenation kinetics and capacity\, indicating that geometry issue is not a key factor on influencing the hydrogenation properties of the studied Mg-based amorphous alloys. (4) Similarly\, minor alloying addition of Ag improves the hydrogen storage capacity and reduces the dehydrogenation temperature of the amorphous Mg65Cu25Y10 alloy. (5)\, High-pressure torsion (HPT) is applied to reduce the hydrogenation temperature and improve the hydrogenation kinetics of Mg-based amorphous alloy\, which is due to the introduction of nanoglasses regions and interfaces among them providing abundant pathways for fast hydrogenation. \nMoreover\, hydrogenation treatment of the Mg-based amorphous alloys at temperature above the crystallization temperatures will lead to the formation of hydrides nanocomposites consisting of MgH2\, Mg2NiH4 and so on. Hydrogen storage properties of the nanocomposites could be well tuned by designing the chemical compositions and phase structures\, by controlling the hydrogen activation treatments\, and by designing subsequent oxidation treatment upon the nano-hydrides composites etc. \nBiography\nProf. Huai-Jun Lin serves as associate professor in Jinan University\, Guangzhou\, China from 2017. During his PhD study\, he obtained a CSC scholar and studied as a visiting student in Kyushu University\, Japan from 2013 to 2014. After completing his Ph.D. degree in Materials Science and Engineering from South China University of Technology\, China in 2014\, he worked in Kyushu University as a Postdoctoral fellow from 2015 to 2016. His research interests include hydrogen storage materials\, functional applications of amorphous alloys and battery etc. \n

SUMMARY:Synthesis of Mg based Metal Hydrides for Hydrogen Storage
DESCRIPTION:Instructors/Speakers\nDr. Kohta ASANO\nSenior Researcher of Senior Researcher of Research Institute of Energy Frontier\nNational Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST)\nJapan \nAbstract\nMetal hydrides have a number of properties that may be utilized to promote the use of hydrogen as an energy carrier. Those with a high hydrogen permeability can be applied as membranes for hydrogen separation\, while the optical changes occurring in metal thin films upon hydrogenation can be used for hydrogen sensing. Even better known is the fact that the high volumetric density of hydrogen makes metal hydrides an attractive option to store energy. The applicability of metal hydrides for storage applications depends on its affinity to hydrogen which determines the equilibrium pressure for (de-)hydrogenation. One of the most attractive hydride forming metals is Mg because of its light weight and low material costs. However\, the Mg-H system has thermodynamic and kinetic limitations associated with hydrogen absorption and desorption processes: the high stability of the MgH2 phase and the slow diffusion of hydrogen in Mg and MgH2 at moderate temperatures and pressures. \nA possible way to destabilize MgH2 and enhance the reaction kinetics is to reduce the size of Mg. It has been calculated that MgH2 is destabilized by decreasing the size on a nanometer scale. We have successfully synthesized nanometer-sized MgH2 clusters\, which form in a self-organized way by the hydrogenation of non-equilibrium Mg-TM (TM: Ti\, Mn\, Cr\, Fe etc.) alloys. Here MgH2 is destabilized by the interface energy between the two metal hydrides. Our results suggest that we can tune the thermodynamics and kinetics of hydrogen absorption and desorption in Mg-H. This concept paves the way for the development of lightweight and cheap Mg-based functional materials in the metal-hydrogen system. \nBiography\nDr. Kohta Asano\, (Ph.D. Eng.)\, now is a Senior Researcher\, Hydrogen Industrial Use and Storage Group\, Research Institute of Energy Frontier\, National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST) in Tsukuba.
