Podcasts on the discussions of mathematics and statistics.
Associate Professor Marcel Jackson (Mathematics and Statistics, La Trobe University) explains where to find the mathematics in music. A lot has been written about the role of mathematics in analysing harmony and what makes two notes sound right together but...

Professor David Clark (Mathematics, SUNY) on recent successful applications of evolutionary computation to the problem of finding terms to represent arbitrarily given term operations on a finite groupoid. Copyright La Trobe University 2013, all rights reserved. Contact for permissions.
Professor Andrei Krokhin (Engineering and Computing Sciences, Durham University) on mixed CSPs,when some constraints in instances are designated as hard and must be satisfied, while others are soft and can be violated (the fractions then refer only to soft constraints). Copyright...
Dr Marcin Kozik (Algorithmics Research Group, Jagiellonian University) presents new versions of tools which will work for all varieties of constraint satisfaction problems. Copyright La Trobe University 2013, all rights reserved. Contact for permissions.

Professor Brian Davey (Mathematics, La Trobe University) on the full versus strong problem, a problem which dates back to the beginnings of the theory of natural dualities in 1980. He presents a survey of the history of the problem, its...
Dr Marcel Jackson (Mathematics, La Trobe University) on mathematics and music, and how they have a lot more in common then you would think. Copyright La Trobe University 2012, all rights reserved. Contact for permissions.
Dr Marcel Jackson (Mathematics, La Trobe University) takes us through the mathematics of rhythm and music. Rhythm is one of the more overtly mathematical aspects of melody and musical structure. But is there more to it than simply fractions? ...
