DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n      \n\n\n\nDepartment of Mathematical Sciences\nColloq
 uium\nFriday, August 29th, 2025\nStratton Hall 202, 11:00AM- 11:50 AM\nSpe
 aker: Yulia Alexandr, UCLA\nTitle: Can algebra be applied?\nAbstract: This
  talk will explore how the powerful tools of algebraic geometry can be app
 lied to tackle real-world challenges. We will examine how seemingly abstra
 ct concepts, such as algebraic varieties, equations, and semi-algebraic se
 ts, can provide valuable insights into the practical properties of mathema
 tical models. I will focus on the applications of algebra in statistics an
 d machine learning, and discuss my work in these rapidly advancing fields\
