SUMMARY:Shape smoothing (and what I hope to get from the Newton change-poi
 nt program) - Heaton\, T (Sheffield University)

DESCRIPTION:This talk will present some ideas for smoothing manifolds that
  have been observed as discrete meshes subject to noise. We will discuss t
 he potential to create wavelet-type bases informed by the geometry of the 
 manifold. As opposed to global Laplace-Beltrami eigenfunctions\, localised
  bases can be found through the lifting scheme. These bases should allow a
  parsimonious representation of the co-ordinate functions and allow denois
 ing of the original shape via thresholding.\n\nI will also discuss some ho
 pes that I have for the Newton Institute program and areas in change-point
  inference I am interested in working on.\n
