Research Collaborations in Randomized Numerical Linear Algebra (RNLA) focuses on developing efficient and practical algorithms for solving problems using numerical linear algebra via randomized techniques. Such methods have gained significant interest in the last 20 years due to the availability of large-scale data, and the challenges that arise when working with it. While computational capabilities have witnessed substantial growth, memory latency constraints persist. This one-week workshop aims to bring together researchers working in RNLA and closely related areas to discuss and initiate collaborations on open problems. The workshop will focus on three subtopics: (i) randomization in algorithms, (ii) randomized multilinear algebra, and (iii) applications to machine learning and inverse problems.

This week-long workshop engages researchers in in-depth discussions and hands-on problem-solving within RNLA, and the format of the program is modeled after the successful sequence of Association of Women in Math (AWM) research network collaborations. Our primary aim is cultivating new, long-lasting collaborations among mathematicians and researchers in this specialized field. Participants typically range from graduate students to senior faculty members and professional researchers in government and industry labs. We intend to leverage this one-week workshop as an inaugural platform, creating a productive environment for participants to convene in person, explore problems of mutual interest, exchange expertise, and network, paving the way for sustained collaboration and innovation.
