CS: Presentations of the Workshop on Probability and Geometry in High Dimensions

Djalil Chafaï, Olivier Guédon, Guillaume Lecué and Alain Pajor just made available the presentations given at the Workshop on Probability and Geometry in High Dimensions that took place a week or so ago in Marne-la-Vallee, near Paris. From the main site, here is the list of speakers and their presentations:



Congratulations to the organizers for following through by posting the presentations on the site. I note that the presentation by Jared Tanner ( Random matrix theory and stochastic geometry in compressed sensing ) is easier to understand than it used to be. Maybe I am getting accustomed to the subject. Other items that jumped at my face was the bound in slide 61 of Holger Rauhut's presentation (Compressive Sensing and Structured Random Matrices): 57, I don't think I remember that number, wow, certainly if 57 is the smallest bound then this Legendre expansion thing is not going to take off in neutron transport problems. It might do a good job in atmospheric transport problems instead.
