Benchmarks and the need for theoretical foundations

Welcome to Carry the Two, the podcast about how math and statistics impact the world around us from the Institute for Mathematical and Statistical Innovation. In this season of Carry the Two we are going to be examining how math and stats is helping scientists, engineers, and industry develop new and emerging technologies. This episode is all about Computation Imaging. Hosts Sam Hansen and Sadie Witkowski are joined by Rebecca Willett the Worah Family Professor of Statistics and Computer Science in the Wallman Society of Fellows at the University of Chicago, Stanley Chan Elmore Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering and Statistics Purdue University, and David Lindell Assistant Professor at the University of Toronto in the Department of Computer Science.
