📎Title: Linguistic and Fuzzy Dynamics: A New Era for Partial Differential Equations
✏️Abstract:
This talk explores the integration of uncertainty modeling into partial differential equations (PDEs), highlighting how concepts such as fuzzy numbers, Z-numbers, and Z-linguistic numbers enhance the ability of mathematical models to handle imprecision, subjectivity, and human-like reasoning. By extending classical PDEs to account for linguistic terms like “moderate risk” or “usually effective,” we can better represent real-world complexities in fields such as healthcare, artificial intelligence, and decision-making. The presentation emphasizes the balance between analytical rigor and interpretability, demonstrating how these enriched models offer a more comprehensive framework for addressing uncertainty in dynamic systems.



Title: "Gaining efficiency in policy gradient methods for optimal control"

Arash Fahim is an associate professor of mathematics at Florida State University. He has worked in various topics including numerical methods for Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equations, partial differential equations with random coefficients, model risk in financial modeling, dual risk models, and most recently in machine learning methods for optimal control and partial differential equations. He also authored open-access books in financial mathematics.



Dr. Simin Shekarpaz is currently a postdoctoral associate in the Center for Space Physics at Boston University. Her research is at the intersection of applied mathematics, machine learning and scientific computing. She focuses on developing scientific machine learning algorithms that integrate data with physical models, with broad applications in computational physics.
