How should we represent high-dimensional data when it is slowly time-varying? High-dimensional data often exhibits low-dimensional structures, including signal sparsity under a given basis, or the data may lie near a manifold.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EIn this talk, Dr. Yao Xie will present answers to these questions by exploiting various low-dimensional structures and by finding ways to connect modern signal processing (such as compressed sensing) with traditional statistics (such as change-point detection). In particular, Dr. Xie will focus on multi-sensor change-point detection, which utilizes signal sparsity to achieve much quicker detection, and the MOUSSE algorithm that forms online estimates of the dynamic manifold, which enables high-dimensional change-point detection with missing data. She establishes theoretical performance guarantees for these methods by using old and new tools from sequential analysis, compressed sensing, geometric wavelet, subspace tracking, and information theory. She will also mention other applications such as low-complexity multi-user detection in large wireless networks and early breast cancer detection.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ELearn more about solar flares in this \u003Ca href=\u0022http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Z000jHwblKQ\u0022 target=\u0022_blank\u0022\u003E2-minute video\u003C\/a\u003E. \u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ESpeaker Bio:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E Yao Xie joined Georgia Tech\u0027s H.
