The purpose of the course is to describe the mathematical and algorithmic principles of this area.</p> <p>The topic lies at the intersection of fields including inverse problems, differential equations, machine learning, and uncertainty quantification. Applications are drawn from the physical, biological, and data sciences.</p> <h2 id="prerequisites">Prerequisites</h2> <p>Basic differential equations, linear algebra, probability, and statistics, such as:</p> <ul> <li>ACM/IDS 104</li> <li>ACM/EE 106 ab</li> <li>ACM/EE/IDS 116</li> <li>IDS/ACM/CS 157</li> <li>Or equivalent preparation</li> </ul> <h2 id="main-textbook">Main Textbook</h2> <p>The main textbook for the course is:</p> <ul> <li> </li> </ul> <h2 id="course-repositories">Course Repositories</h2> <p>Related GitHub repositories:</p> <ul> <li> </li> <li> </li> </ul>
