Manchester Number Theory Seminar - Cassani
Speaker: Cassani Title: The Pila-Zannier strategy and the Zilber-Pink conjecture Abstract: I will explain how the Pila-Zannier strategy plays out in the context of the Zilber-Pink conjecture for connected pure Shimura varieties. This extends Daw-Ren2018 from algebraic curves to irreducible varieties of arbitrary dimension. Room: Frank Adams...
AI-Fun Seminar | Neill Campbell: Generative models as priors for inverse problems
The Manchester Centre for AI Fundamentals is hosting a series of seminars featuring expert researchers working in the fundamentals of AI. Title: Generative models as priors for inverse problems. Abstract: We will discuss the use of generative models in the regularisation of inverse problems involving both appearance and shape as well as the...
