The Day After Tomorrow: Art in Response to Turmoil and Hope

Exhibition

Our new reality is profoundly different than it was six months ago. Curated amid pandemic and protests, "The Day After Tomorrow: Art in Response to Turmoil and Hope" explores how artists respond to crisis, offering parallels to our own emotions and experiences this year.

"The Day After Tomorrow" is divided into three themes. "A Better Tomorrow" focuses on transcendence, alternate realities, the divine, afterlife, and bliss. "A Worse Yesterday" comprises works of art that address events that have shaken the world and thrown it into crises such as world wars, nuclear proliferation, AIDS, genocide, racism, and immigration. "Awry Ecosystem" focuses on art by artists concerned with the environment and how humans are changing it.

Also included is a Community Response Space, which will feature rotating exhibitions of work by local artists and where you can share your personal journey through an interactive display.

Women, Surrealism, and Abstraction

Exhibition

During the 20th century, art made by women was often overlooked or dismissed by museums, collectors, and art historians. Featuring work by 46 artists, "Women, Surrealism, and Abstraction" attempts to present a more holistic and complex view of art history—one that highlights artwork by women pushing beyond societal expectations and creative limitations through Surrealism and abstraction. Also featured alongside the art are 16 poems written by women in the Cache Valley literary community.

Applied Mathematics Seminar: Harnessing the Power of Time Series Data

Conference/Seminar

Zoom ID: 945 1753 3441
Passcode: USUAMS

Speaker: Soukaina Filali Boubrahimi, Assistant Professor of computer science at USU.

abstract:
Time series data are ubiquitous in daily life. From our heart rates measurements, credit cards transactions, to daily bitcoins pricing, all discrete-valued data that have a time component are considered time series data. The limitation of having huge datasets is not at the storage level, as Moore's Law predicted it well, but in the ability to extract useful information from it. In this talk, I will expose some ideas on how to harness the power of time series data through some applications such as solar events predictions and spatiotemporal shape interpolation. I will also discuss our recent model, 1DCNN shapelet miner, a novel interpretable motif discovery model inspired from the idea of mining recurring patterns in DNA that are presumed to have a biological function. Finally, I will provide a discussion on some promising directions on multivariate time series classification using shapelets mining algorithms.
