What's ASC about?
Many applications in computer science require methods of (numerical) mathematics - especially in science and engineering, of course, but also in surprisingly many areas that one might suspect to be directly at the heart of computer science:
Consider, for example, Fourier and wavelet transformations, which are indispensable in image processing and image compression. Similar, numerical methods for approximation have become essential techniques for high-dimensional classification problems in data science. Essentially, these methods come down to the question of how to represent and process information or data as (multi-dimensional) continuous functions. "Algorithms for Scientific Computing" thus provides an algorithmically oriented introduction to the foundations of such mathematical methods.
Topics include:
- The fast Fourier transformation (FFT) and some of its variants:
- FCT (Fast Cosine Transform), real FFT, Application for compression of video and audio data
- Hierarchical and recursive methods in scientific computing
- From Archimedes' quadrature to the hierarchical basis
- Classification problems
- From the hierarchical basis to wavelets
- High-demonsional problems
- Sparse grids and the sparse-grid combination technique
- Octrees and Space filling curves (SFCs):
- Tree-structured (hierarchical) adaptivity
- Construction and properies of SFCs
- Application for parallelization and to linearize multidimensional data spaces in data bases
