Finite Data

Finite data research addresses the challenges of building and applying models with limited data, a common constraint in many scientific and engineering domains. Current research focuses on developing algorithms that achieve robust performance despite data scarcity, including advancements in optimization techniques (e.g., finite-time stable algorithms), sample complexity analysis for model identification, and novel regularization methods for inverse problems. These efforts are crucial for improving the reliability and applicability of machine learning and other data-driven methods in scenarios where large datasets are unavailable or impractical to obtain, impacting fields ranging from medical imaging to fluid dynamics simulations.
