This talk contains two parts: In the first part, I will present some recent work on developing partial differential equation principled robust neural architecture and optimization algorithms for robust, accurate, private, and efficient deep learning. In the second part, I will discuss some recent progress on leveraging Nesterov accelerated gradient style momentum for accelerating deep learning, which again involves designing stochastic optimization algorithms and mathematically principled neural architecture.
