Thanks to the combination of potentialities from these two scientific areas, the proposed class of models has important advantages with respect to classical techniques used in spatial data analysis. The models are able to efficiently deal with data distributed over irregularly shaped domains, including Riemannian manifold domains, only few methods existing in literature for this type of data structures. Moreover, they can incorporate problem-specific priori information about the spatial structure of the phenomenon under study, with a very flexible modeling of space variation, allowing naturally for anisotropy and non-stationarity. The models have a generalized additive framework with a regularizing term involving a differential quantity of the surface of spatial field to be estimated. The estimators have good inferential properties; moreover, thanks to the use of numerical analysis techniques, they are computationally highly efficient. The method is illustrated in various applied contexts, including data coming from eco-dopplers, three-dimensional angiographies and computational fluid dynamics simulations. The seminar is based on joint work with Laura Azzimonti, Bree Ettinger, Fabio Nobile, Simona Perotto, Jim Ramsay, Piercesare Secchi. This line of research is developed within the FIRB2008 Futuro in Ricerca research project SNAPLE (http://mox.polimi.it/users/sangalli/firbSNAPLE.html ).

Seminario A. Bianchi a Modena

*Avviso Seminario* La Dott.ssa Alessandra Bianchi (Università di Padova) terrà un seminario Venerdì 22 Novembre alle ore 11:30 in Aula VII - Dipartimento di Scienze Fisiche, Informatiche e Matematiche - Edificio Matematica - Via Campi 213/B - Modena. Titolo del Seminario: "Random Walk in a one-dimensional Levy random environment" Abstract: In this talk we introduce a model for a one-dimensional Levy-Lorentz gas corresponding to a random walk in random environment on the line. The environment is provided by a renewal point process with inter-distances having a Levy-type distribution, that can be seen as a set of randomly arranged static scatterers. We investigate the quenched behavior of the walk in the case of inter-distances having finite mean but infinite variance and provide asymptotic results about its distribution and moments . In particular we show that, contrary to the annealed case, the quenched behavior of the motion is diffusive. This is a work in progress with G. Cristadoro, M. Lenci and M. Ligabò. L'evento è organizzato nell'ambito del progetto FIRB "Processi stocastici e sistemi di particelle interagenti": http://www.stochastics.unimore.it/firb/

Seminario MORANDIN
by barbato＠math.unipd.it 15 Nov '13

15 Nov '13

Ho il piacere di invitarvi al seguente seminario, che si terrà Martedi' 19 novembre 2013 alle ore 16:00 presso l'aula 1AD100 della torre Archimede via Trieste 63 Padova. SPEAKER: Francesco Morandin AFFILIATION: Università di Parma TITLE: Anomalous dissipation in a stochastic inviscid shell model of turbulence ABSTRACT: Shell models of turbulence are infinite systems of coupled nonlinear equations with exponentially-growing coefficients. They are thought to be able to capture some of the statistical properties and features of three-dimensional turbulence, while presenting a structure much simpler than Navier-Stokes and Euler equations. We introduce a stochastic version with multiplicative noise of some of these models and prove energy dissipation in spite of its formal conservativity. ------- David Barbato Università di Padova ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program.

Per equazioni ellittiche su networks si evidenziera' il ruolo chiave delle condizioni di transizione di tipo Kirchhoff sui nodi interni , ma si mostrera' che tale approccio non si adatta alle equazioni di Hamilton-Jacobi. Si introdurra' invece un’appropriata definizione di soluzione viscosita' per caratterizzare la soluzione significativa del problema. > > > > > > -- > Prof. Alessandra Faggionato > Department of Mathematics > University La Sapienza > Piazzale A.
