SUMMARY:Applied Microeconomics and Trade Seminar Series presents: Matt Weinberg
DESCRIPTION:Applied Microeconomics and Trade Seminar\nDate: Wednesday\, December 3\, 2025\nTime: 11:50am – 1:10 p.m.\nLocation: E2-499\n\n \n\nSpeaker: Matt Weinberg \nTitle: Professor of Economics \nAffiliation: Ohio State University\nHost: Jon Robinson\n \nSeminar title: Oligopsony and Collective Bargaining: Evidence from K-12 Teachers \n\nABSTRACT:  Employers facing limited labor market competition may suppress wages below socially optimal levels. Unions can counteract this wage suppression through collective bargaining\, though the may also push wages above the socially optimal level. To assess these forces\, we estimate a structural model of labor supply\, labor demand\, and Nashin-Nash bargaining over wages between teacher unions and school districts in Pennsylvania’s K-12 public school system from 2013 to 2020. Using the estimated parameters\, we compare negotiated equilibrium wages and employment to the pure oligopsony scenario and the social planner scenario. On average\, pure oligopsony reduces wages 16 percent below the social optimum\, while collective bargaining raises wages by 9 percent above the optimum. This average masks substantial district-level heterogeneity driven by variation in bargaining power. Twenty-seven percent of schools have negotiated salaries below the social optimum due to cross-district externalities\, where high salaries at one school lead to hiring reductions\, which increase labor supply in competing districts.

SUMMARY:When Less is More: Applications of Type-Based Underapproximate Reasoning
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Suresh Jagganathan\, Purdue University\n\n\nAbstract:\nUnlike program verifiers\, symbolic execution and property-based testing tools underapproximate program behavior: they aim to report only real bugs (no false positives)\, at the cost of potentially missing some (false negatives). Recent work has sought to place such tools on a more formal footing\, primarily through the development of incorrectness logics that capture a program’s ‘must’ rather than ‘may’ behavior. This talk explores how to transplant these ideas of underapproximation into an expressive refinement type system. Our development enables us to:\n\n(a) Typecheck the completeness of property-based testing (PBT) generators\, ensuring that a well-typed generator produces all values (i.e.\, fully covers) its output type;\n\n(b) Synthesize effectful generators by extending the type system to model underapproximations of sequences of effects rather than just values; and\n\n(c) Guide symbolic execution in effectful functional programs\, prioritizing execution paths capable of falsifying data structure safety properties.\n\nOur results demonstrate that viewing types through the lens of underapproximation offers a principled foundation for designing\, implementing\, and reasoning about program analyzers and test generators\, significantly improving their reliability and practical utility in the process.\n\n\nBio:\nSuresh Jagannathan is the Samuel D. Conte Professor of Computer Science at Purdue University. His interests span functional programming\, program verification\, distributed and concurrent systems\, and trustworthy machine learning. In recent years\, he has spent time as an Amazon Scholar\, a program manager at the Information Innovoation Office (I2O) at DARPA\, and a visiting researcher at the University of Cambridge. He serves an Associate Editor of ACM TOPLAS\, and has served as both General and PC Chair of POPL (ACM Symposium on Programming Languages).\n\n\nHosted by: Professor Mohsen Lesani\n\n\nLocation: E2-180\n*Refreshments such as coffee and pastries will be provided\n\n\n\nZoom: https://ucsc.zoom.us/j/93445911992?pwd=YkJ2TQtF79h0PcNXbEcpZLbpK0coiY.1&jst=3

SUMMARY:AM Seminar: Denoising: A Powerful Building Block for Imaging\, Inverse Problems and Machine Learning
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Peyman Milanfar\, Distinguished Scientist\, Google \nDescription: Denoising\, the process of reducing random fluctuations in a signal to emphasize essential patterns\, has been a fundamental problem of interest since the dawn of modern scientific inquiry. Recent denoising techniques\, particularly in imaging\, have achieved remarkable success\, nearing theoretical limits by some measures. Yet\, despite tens of thousands of research papers\, the wide-ranging applications of denoising beyond noise removal have not been fully recognized. This is partly due to the vast and diverse literature\, making a clear overview challenging. This article aims to address this gap. We present a clarifying perspective on denoisers\, their structure and their desired properties. We emphasize the increasing importance of denoising and showcase its evolution into an essential building block for complex tasks in imaging\, inverse problems and machine learning. Despite its long history\, the community continues to uncover unexpected and groundbreaking uses for denoising\, further solidifying its place as a cornerstone of scientific and engineering practice. \nBio: Peyman is a Distinguished Scientist at Google\, where he leads the Computational Imaging team. Prior to this\, he was a Professor of Electrical Engineering at UC Santa Cruz for 15 years\, two of those as Associate Dean for Research. From 2012-2014 he was on leave at Google-x\, where he helped develop the imaging pipeline for Google Glass. Over the last decade\, Peyman’s team at Google has developed several core imaging technologies that are used in many products. Among these are the zoom pipeline for the Pixel phones\, which includes the multi-frame super-resolution (Super Res Zoom) pipeline\, and several generations of state of the art digital upscaling algorithms. Most recently\, his team led the development of Pro Res Zoom\, and Unblur\, features launched in Pixel 10 devices and Google Photos. Peyman received his undergraduate education in electrical engineering and mathematics from the UC Berkeley\, and the MS and PhD degrees in electrical engineering from MIT. He holds more than two dozen patents. He founded MotionDSP\, which was acquired by Cubic Inc. Along with his students and colleagues\, his research work has had deep impact in several areas of computational imaging\, and applications of AI thereto – including the introduction of adaptive kernel regression to imaging; pioneering use of learning for fast\, content-adaptive image upscaling (RAISR); Neural Image quality Assessment (NIMA)\, Regularization by Denoising (RED); and most recently (2024) Inversion by Direct Iteration (InDI). All of these works have been recognized with best paper awards. He’s been a Distinguished Lecturer of the IEEE Signal Processing Society\, and is a Fellow of the IEEE “for contributions to inverse problems and super-resolution in imaging” \nHosted by: Professor Julie Simons\, Applied Mathematics \nZoom link: https://ucsc.zoom.us/j/93681175800?pwd=bgfPLQpTzs5PG4z3Qo2zbvMMScMAwn.1 \nMeeting ID: 936 8117 5800\nPasscode: 609643

SUMMARY:Road Trip! Light in the American West\, from Baja to the Yukon
DESCRIPTION:The photographs in this exhibition\, made between 2004 and 2025\, span across the American West from the Baja California Peninsula in Mexico to The Yukon territory in Canada. Paul Schoellhamer’s (Cowell ‘69) color photographs invite us to travel with him and reflect on our relationship to land\, the light that shapes it\, and the freedom – contested but essential – to move across it. \nThe exhibition draws on voices across time and perspective that frame the American landscape as more than a stage for beauty and awe. For Chief Satanta of the Kiowa Nation\, to roam the land freely was life itself. For N. Scott Momaday\, land must be “believed to be seen.” For Eliot Porter\, light and reflection imparted magic to Glen Canyon’s waters. For Wallace Stegner\, saving natural places meant saving fragments of our collective sanity. For Brook M. Thompson\, the Klamath River is recognized with personhood. Alongside these perspectives\, Paul’s images press us to see public land not as scenery to extract or aestheticize\, but as sustenance and history. Land is alive and contested. To see closely is not to linger on a romanticized vision of the American landscape\, but to reckon with responsibility: how we safeguard access\, how we imagine “wildness\,” and how we hold space for futures beyond our own. For Paul\, this exhibition is a call for students to encounter land and light firsthand and let those encounters be their teachers. \nOpening Reception\nOctober 4\, 2025\n1-4pm \n—– \nJoin us every Friday for Art Fridays.\nNo experience necessary.
