DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Ming C. Lin\nAbstract: From turbulent fluid flow to ch
 aotic traffic patterns\, many phenomena observed in nature and in society 
 show complex emergent behavior on different scales. The modeling and simul
 ation of such phenomena continues to intrigue scientists and researchers a
 cross different fields\, from computational sciences\, medicine\, traffic 
 engineering\, urban planning\, to social sciences. Understanding and repro
 ducing the visual appearance and dynamic behavior of such complex phenomen
 a through simulation is valuable for enhancing the realism of virtual scen
 es\, for improving the efficiency of design evaluation\, for planning of c
 omplex procedures\, and for training of skilled personnel. This is also es
 sential for interactive applications\, where it is impossible to manually 
 animate all the possible interactions and anticipate all responses beforeh
 and. In this talk\, I survey several recent advances that synthesize toget
 her macroscopic models of the large-scale flows and local representations 
 of intricate behaviors to capture both the aggregate dynamics and fine-gra
 ined details of such phenomena with significantly accelerated performance 
 on commodity hardware\, as well as novel algorithms that integrate physics
 -based modeling and data-driven synthesis to solve challenging research pr
 oblems. Some of the example dynamical systems that I will describe using t
 hese hybrid techniques include soft tissue modeling\, turbulent fluid\, gr
 anular flows\, crowd simulation\, traffic visualization\, and sound synthe
 sis. I conclude by discussing some possible future directions.
