معرفی
Paul Tupper is a Professor in the Department of Mathematics at Simon Fraser University (SFU), part of the Faculty of Science. He holds a Ph.D. in Scientific Computing from Stanford University (2002). His research focuses on applied mathematics with emphasis on mathematical modeling in epidemiology, speech perception, neural networks, and computational linguistics. He teaches advanced courses in probability, numerical linear algebra, and calculus for social sciences.
His work bridges theoretical mathematics and real-world applications, particularly in understanding complex systems like disease transmission dynamics and cognitive processes. Recent studies include modeling the transition of pandemics to endemic states, genomic analysis of viral spread, and audio-visual perception mechanisms in speech. He actively contributes to public health policy discussions through epidemic modeling research.
Professor Tupper's research has been published in high-impact journals and conferences, with notable contributions to diversity metrics in biology and geometry, stochastic differential equations, and connectionist models of linguistic phenomena. His courses reflect interdisciplinary interests, integrating mathematical rigor with practical computational methods.
