Research areas

Maarten de Hoop’s research interests are in extracting subtle signal information from the ever-expanding data sets produced from advances in data acquisition by dense arrays and sensor technology. Maarten is interested in exploiting the foundations of the theory of seismic waves, their properties and multi-scale interaction with complex, highly heterogeneous media and nonlinear inverse theory, and in developing new paradigms for large-scale computing.

Courses taught

CMOR 422

Numerical Analysis

Construction and application of numerical algorithms for root finding, interpolation and approximation of functions, quadrature, and the solution of differential equations; fundamentals of computer arithmetic; solution of linear systems, linear least squares problems, and eigenvalue problems via matrix factorizations; Newton and Newton-like methods for nonlinear systems of equations. Computer programming in MATLAB is required. Cross-list: CMOR 522.
