COMP 5960 - 001 Sci. and Data Comp


This course will cover the foundations of function, derivative and integral approximation, numerical linear algebra for the solution of large systems of equations (including but not limited to gradient descent and Krylov methods), numerical methods for the solution of ordinary differential equations (ODEs), and numerical methods for the solution of partial differential equations (PDEs). We will also discuss using machine learning techniques to both solve PDEs and infer them from data. We will use a unified framework to build all our numerical methods up from the concept of function approximation.
