Abstract
Numerical linear algebra (NLA) is fundamental to modern scientific computing and data science. Rapid advances in artificial intelligence (AI), particularly in large-scale machine learning and deep learning, are creating new computational challenges that require scalable and robust linear algebra algorithms. Tasks such as training large neural networks, solving ill-conditioned systems in scientific machine learning, and analyzing massive data sets increasingly rely on efficient numerical linear algebra methods.
This workshop will explore emerging developments at the intersection of numerical linear algebra and AI. Topics include iterative methods and preconditioning for large-scale optimization, scalable matrix and tensor decompositions, randomized and data-driven algorithms, learning-augmented numerical methods, and hardware-aware computation for modern architectures such as GPUs and AI accelerators.
Bringing together researchers from mathematics, computer science, engineering, and industry, the workshop aims to stimulate new collaborations and highlight mathematical and computational challenges shaping the future of numerical linear algebra in the AI era.
