Abstract

Mathematics is the foundation of natural sciences. It provides not only basic theory and tools for other disciplines but also key technology for many areas such as engineering, national security and social economy, etc. In this talk, I will present some examples in leading technology such as Google search, recommendation system and image processing to show several applications of mathematics.
