Date: 28th November 2018
Organizers: Thomas Cass and Dan Crisan
Location: All talks to be held at the EPSRC Centres for Doctoral Training Suite at the South Kensington Campus, Imperial College London
Abstract: This is a one-day workshop that aims to bring together researchers from two sister areas Data Assimilation and Nonlinear Filtering. The morning session will be devoted to will be on applications of filtering and methodology (in particular data assimilation). The afternoon theme will be on nonlinear filtering theoretical results. The workshop will be an opportunity to celebrate Martin Clark’s 80th birthday. Here is a brief appreciation of Martin’s life and work by David Mayne.
