Description:
In the past 30 years, Bob Plemmons has made several significant
contributions on a variety of problems in linear algebra, including:
nonnegative and structured matrices; large and sparse least squares
problems, including iterative methods and parallel computations;
signal processing and image processing applications.
The aim of this meeting is to bring together experts from these
diverse, yet related, areas to explore greater commonality.
There will be four invited long presentations (45 minutes), one in each of the following areas:
* Large, sparse least squares problems / parallel algorithms. * Signal processing applications. * Matrix analysis / nonnegative matrices * Image processing applications.
Associated with each of these long presentations there will be up to five invited short presentations (25 minutes). There will be no contributed papers, and no parallel sessions, but we encourage contributed papers to be submitted for a poster session.
On Saturday evening, there will be a banquet in Bob's honor.
Papers presented at the conference, including contributed posters, can be submitted to a special issue of Linear Algebra and Its Applications for possible publication. The papers will go through the usual refereeing process.
