Show Notes:



  • Here is the original paper on total variation for denoising.



  • Here is a talk from 2003 where Stan describes and shows images from the attack on the truck driver Reginald Denny during the riots in LA (skip to 11:00 for the story).



  • Here is the paper on the level set method.



  • The company Stan cofounded, Luminescent Technologies, Inc, used the level set method for inverse lithography technology.





  • Here is a paper by Candes, Romberg and Tao on compressed sensing, providing rigorous theory for use of the L1 norm.



  • An example of "thinking continuously rather than discretely" is the analysis of Su, Boyd, and Candes in providing a short and simple proof for Nesterov acceleration in the continuous setting via a continuous ODE (see Theorem 3 in this ⁠paper⁠).
