SUMMARY:Statistics Seminar: Distance-to-set regularization for inference under constraints
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Jason Xu\, Associate Professor\, Department of Biostatistics\, UCLA \nDescription: We consider a penalty framework based on regularizing the squared distance to set-based constraints for several core statistical tasks. These distance-to-set penalties provide a simple and flexible way to cast constrained optimization problems in more tractable unconstrained forms. We will see that they often avoid drawbacks that arise from popular alternatives such as shrinkage methods. We discuss a general strategy for eliciting effective algorithms in this framework using majorization-minimization (MM)\, the general principle behind EM that transfers difficult problems onto a sequence of more manageable subproblems. We showcase new progress on classical problems including sparse covariance estimation using this approach\, and discuss connections to Bayesian inference. In particular\, analogous ideas lead to constraint relaxation and generalized profile likelihood to include optimization subproblems\, leading to methods that are amenable to gradient-based posterior computation. \nBio: Jason Xu is an Associate Professor in the Department of Biostatistics at the University of California Los Angeles. Before joining the faculty at UCLA\, he was a faculty member in the Department of Statistical Science at Duke University. Xu’s research program focuses on stochastic modeling and computational challenges in dynamic\, dependent\, and missing data settings\, and he contributes tools at the interface of optimization and Bayesian approaches \nHosted by: Professor Paul Parker

SUMMARY:AM Seminar: Sampling-Based Adaptive Rank Integrators for Multi-scale Kinetic Models.
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Professor Jingmei Qiu\, University of Delaware \n  \nDescription: In this talk\, we introduce a sampling-based semi-Lagrangian adaptive rank (SLAR) method\, which leverages a cross approximation strategy—also known as CUR or pseudo-skeleton decomposition—to efficiently represent low-rank structures in kinetic solutions. The method dynamically adapts the rank of the solution while ensuring numerical stability through singular value truncation and mass-conservative projections. By combining the advantages of semi-Lagrangian integration with low-rank approximations\, SLAR enables significantly larger time steps compared to conventional methods and is extended to nonlinear systems such as the Vlasov-Poisson equations using a Runge-Kutta exponential integrator. Building on this framework\, we further develop the SLAR method for the multi-scale BGK equation\, introducing an asymptotically accurate approach that eliminates the need for low-rank decompositions of the local Maxwellian in the collision operator. To enforce conservation of mass\, momentum\, and energy\, we propose a novel locally macroscopic conservative (LoMaC) technique\, which discretizes the macroscopic system using high-order DIRK methods. Additionally\, a dynamic closure strategy is employed to self-consistently adjust macroscopic moments\, enabling robust simulations across both kinetic and hydrodynamic regimes\, even in the presence of shocks and discontinuities. We validate our method through extensive benchmark tests on linear advection\, unto 3D3V nonlinear Vlasov-Poisson\, and multi-scale kinetic problems\, demonstrating its accuracy\, stability\, and computational efficiency. The Sampling-Based Adaptive Rank framework offers a promising pathway for overcoming the curse of dimensionality in high-dimensional multi-scale kinetic problems. \n  \nBio: Dr. Jingmei Qiu is a Unidel Professor in the Department of Mathematical Sciences at the University of Delaware. Her research focuses on the design\, analysis\, and application of high-order structure-preserving computational algorithms for complex systems characterized by multi-scale\, multi-physics\, and high-dimensional features. Dr. Qiu’s work includes developing low-rank tensor approximations for high-dimensional\, time-dependent problems with structure preservation\, as well as Eulerian-Lagrangian high-order numerical methods for fluid and kinetic applications. \n  \nHosted by: Professor Julie Simons \n

SUMMARY:CM Seminar - "Forty-Four Esolangs: The Art of Esoteric Code"
DESCRIPTION:Presented by: Daniel Temkin\n\nDescription: Software art is widely accepted\, but can programming languages themselves be art? The new book Forty-Four Esolangs makes this argument\, collecting work by a single artist who poses code as prayer to the Greek gods\, patterns of empty folders\, or typed in tandem by two programmers\, the rhythm and synchrony of their typing determining commands. Temkin will share projects from the book in the context of thirty plus years of esolangs\, showing the poetic possibilities of this medium. \nBio: Daniel Temkin makes photographic and computational art exploring logic and human irrationality. He began interviewing other esolangers and code artists in 2011\, creating the blog esoteric.codes. ZKM exhibited the blog and commissioned videos of Temkin explaining esolang history for their Open Codes show in 2018–19. Esoteric.codes earned an ArtsWriters.org grant and a residency at New Museum’s NEW INC\, the first museum-led cultural incubator. Temkin has written about esolangs for Hyperallergic and Leonardo\, and his aesthetic theory of the form was published by Digital Humanities Quarterly. You can see his work at danieltemkin.com. \nHosted by: Professor Katherine Isbister \nWhen: Monday\, October 20 from 12:30PM to 1:30PM \nLocation:  \nIN-PERSON @ UCSC Main Campus\, E2-280. \nViewing room @ SVC 3212.  \nLUNCH WILL BE PROVIDED AT BOTH LOCATIONS!

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. Supplies and snacks provided. \n\nSep 26 Snail Mail/Postcards\nOct 3 Souvenir Keychains\nOct 10 Stamp Magnets\nOct 17 Cyanotype Totebags/Pouches/Pencil cases\nOct 24 Candy Around The World Linocuts\nOct 31 Abstract Felt Collages\nNov 7 Phone Photos/Buttons\nNov 14 Travel Related Patches With Upcycled Materials\nNov 21 Thanksgiving Break! No Art Friday\nNov 28 Unexpected Landscape Surrealist Collage\n\nPlease note that the date and the project is subject to change.

SUMMARY:ECE 290 Seminar: Biohybrid Electronics Using Extracellular Electron Transfer
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Ben Keitz\, Associate Professor\, University of Texas at Austin \nDescription: Qualities exhibited by living systems\, including self-regulation\, self-healing\, morphology control\, and environmental responsiveness\, are highly attractive for sensing and computing applications. However\, it has been challenging to develop robust and programmable interfaces between living systems and electronic components. Addressing this challenge\, our lab employs techniques from microbiology\, synthetic biology\, and metabolic engineering to control extracellular electron transfer (EET)\, a form of microbial respiration in which extracellular metals and metal oxides are used as terminal electron acceptors. Using the model electroactive bacterium Shewanella oneidensis\, we coopt EET to link cellular metabolism and protein expression to microelectronic device behavior. Specifically\, we show that S. oneidensis can interface with organic electrochemical transistors (OECTs) through specific electron transfer machinery. The inclusion of living cells endows single transistors with complex logic\, short-term plasticity\, and other unique properties. We also establish that S. oneidensis can interact with both p-type and n-type conducting polymers to further control transistor performance. Ultimately\, our work demonstrates how unique forms of bacterial respiration can be leveraged to merge the advantages of living and traditional computation. \nBio: Benjamin (Keith) Keitz received his PhD in Chemistry from the California Institute of Technology and completed his postdoctoral training at the University of California\, Berkeley. He is a native of Austin\, TX and is currently an Associate Professor and the Frank A. Liddell Jr. Fellow in Chemical Engineering in the McKetta Department of Chemical Engineering at the University of Texas at Austin. Research in the Keitz lab focuses on the engineering of electroactive bacteria and the applications of extracellular electron transfer in biocatalysis\, materials synthesis\, synthetic biology\, and biosensing. His work has received several awards including an NIH Maximizing Investigators’ Research Award\, an NSF CAREER Award\, and an Air Force Office of Scientific Research Young Investigator Award. \nHosted by: Professor Marco Rolandi\, ECE Department \nZoom Link: https://ucsc.zoom.us/j/97975378707?pwd=ljcgaCfhMmhZ88Vt5dqQUBVQRjehOx.1 \nRoom: E2-192

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. Supplies and snacks provided. \n\nSep 26 Snail Mail/Postcards\nOct 3 Souvenir Keychains\nOct 10 Stamp Magnets\nOct 17 Cyanotype Totebags/Pouches/Pencil cases\nOct 24 Candy Around The World Linocuts\nOct 31 Abstract Felt Collages\nNov 7 Phone Photos/Buttons\nNov 14 Travel Related Patches With Upcycled Materials\nNov 21 Thanksgiving Break!

SUMMARY:Sesnon Salon: History of Art & Visual Culture
DESCRIPTION:The Arts Division welcome students\, faculty\, staff\, and the general community to a salon-style gathering presenting the work of UC Santa Cruz’s History of Art and Visual Culture (HAVC) Department. \nAssistant Professor Clementine Bordeaux\, an enrolled member of the Sičáŋǧu Lakóta Nation (Rosebud Sioux Tribe)\, grew up on the Pine Ridge Reservation (South Dakota). Bordeaux received her Ph.D. in Culture and Performance from the World Arts and Cultures/Dance Department at the University of California\, Los Angeles. She works across multi- and interdisciplinary fields and collaborates with artists\, cultural bearers\, and community activists\, and employs Lakota concepts of ikčé\, the everyday\, and ingenuity\, to illustrate a continuum of Očéti Šakówiŋ artistic engagements. \nThis presentation offers a brief overview of her research\, which methodologically and theoretically utilizes relationality as the primary tool to communicate the interrelatedness of Lakota kinship values\, a cultural connection to other-than-human beings\, and creative practice\, as demonstrated through storytelling\, poetry\, and material culture. \nThe event will take place outdoors by the Porter Koi Pond. Light refreshments will be served. \n—\nADMISSION\nFree and open to the public.\n—\nFULL SCHEDULE OF EVENTS\nOct 16: History of Art and Visual Culture Department\nNov 20: Music Department \nJan 15: Art Department\nFeb 19: Film and Digital Media Department \nApril 16: Creative Technologies\nMay 21: Department of Performance\, Play & Design \n—\nPARKING\nLot 124 & 125 are the closest parking lots to the event.\nParking via permit or ParkMobile.\nSee TAPS for parking information. \n— \nThis program is open to all members of the public consistent with state and federal law.

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.
