(Lindsey Bannister/Western Academy for Advanced Research) Princeton's Maria Chudnovsky brings graph theory perspective to WAFAR's interdisciplinary research on neural networks By Lindsey Bannister, Special to Western News, March 28, 2023 By Lindsey Bannister, Special to Western News, March 28, 2023 New advancements in neural imaging and recording technologies may provide the key to understanding Alzheimer's Disease, epilepsy and other disorders. But as remarkable as these technologies are, they also produce vast and complex datasets that pose a challenge to researchers. New approaches are needed to make sense of this information. Renowned Princeton University mathematics Maria Chudnovsky is collaborating with scholars from the Western Academy for Advanced Research (WAFAR) to address this problem. Chudnovsky is associated with Western as a visiting fellow with the " mathematics of neural networks ," an interdisciplinary research theme supported by WAFAR. Leading the project is Lyle Muller of the department of mathematics, with Já n Min ác from the same department and Marieke Mur, assistant professor of psychology and computer science.
