Course: “Statistical learning: bagging, boosting, SVM, introduction to neural networks”
Within the framework of 2019 International Conference on Applied Probability and Statistics – CAPS 2019 (https://caps2019.viasm.edu.vn/), the Vietnam Institute for Advanced Study in Mathematics (VIASM) organized the mini-course “Statistical learning: bagging, boosting, SVM, introduction to neural networks” on April 1-2, 2019 in Hanoi. The lectures was given by Professor Vincent Lefieux (RTE - Réseau de Transport d'Électricité, France).
The signing ceremony of the Cooperation agreement between VIASM, HUST and VINBDI at the Seminar: “Improving quality of post-graduate education programs via scholarship policies and academics - industry cooperation”.
During the afternoon of Thursday, 14th March 2019, Managing Director Le Minh Ha representing Vietnam Institute of Advanced Study in Mathematics (VIASM) along with Vice-president Tran Van Top representing Hanoi University of Science and Technology (HUST) jointly signed Cooperation agreement regarding activities within training and scientific research scope involving both parties. The agreement focuses on coordination of various raining activities, teaching and learning innovation initiatives and curriculum reform for Mathematics majors as well as mathematics for other sciences at both undergraduate and graduate levels. In addition, both parties are also committed to coordination of scientific research and publishing of documents, materials, textbooks in Mathematics; establishing mutual communication channels for exchanging, sharing of sources of study materials under the disposal of respective parties. Under the agreement, Hanoi University of Science and Technology and the Vietnam Institute for Advanced Study in Mathematics will co-organize various activities such as Math Summer Camps, Math Open Day, … aimed at promoting Mathematics in particular and STEM disciplines in general for youth and science enthusiasts in general.
Conference “Algorithms, Optimization, and Learning in Dynamics Environments” - AOL 2019
Conference on Algorithms, Optimization, and Learning in Dynamics Environments - AOL 2019 was held at both Institute of Mathematics of Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology from 4th to 6th March, 2019 and Vietnam Institute for Advanced Study in Mathematics on 7th March, 2019.
Mini-course "Topics in Lattice-Based Cryptography"
Lattice-based cryptography is the study of cryptosystems whose security is based on the hardness of solving computational problems from lattices. Compared to traditional public-key cryptosystems based on the hardness of factoring integers or computing discrete logarithms, cryptosystems from lattices typically offer a combination of advantages: conjectured resistance against quantum computers, provable security from well-known worst-case assumptions and asymptotic efficiency. Moreover, lattices also provide a rich toolbox for designing advanced cryptographic primitives, some of which have not been known to be achievable based on the factoring and the discrete logarithm problems.
MATH OPEN DAY CENTRAL VIETNAM 2019
