Ph.D. Mini-Course@Sapienza | An introduction to changepoint detection
by Pierpaolo Brutti 21 Feb '25

21 Feb '25

Dear all, apologies for cross-posting. Quick note on an upcoming PhD course course on multiple changepoint analysis that will take place next week @Sapienza-DIAG (Rome, Via Ariosto 25). Here's the details: *Schedule*: 1. 24 Feb: 10:00-12:00 | Aula B203 @ DIAG 24 Feb: 13:45-17:00 | Aula B101 @ DIAG 2. 25 Feb: 9:30-12:00 | Aula B203 @ DIAG 25 Feb: 13:45-17:00 | Aula B203 @ DIAG 3. 26 Feb: 9:30-12:00 | Aula B203 @ DIAG 26 Feb: 13:45-17:00 | Aula B203 @ DIAG 4. 27 Feb: 9:30-11:30 | Aula B203 @ DIAG *Zoom links*: - AM: https://inrae-fr.zoom.us/j/96946255684?pwd=Gm04CV5Dw8AZ2bdcRbHHreG9hHaakH.1 - PM: https://inrae-fr.zoom.us/j/92052483887?pwd=4tuFd0TS6HAxIgYLMRmIkaYPm55LgF.1 *Abstract* In recent years, there has been a proliferation of methods for detecting changepoints (also known as breakpoints or structural breaks) in data streams. This surge has been driven by the wide range of applications where changepoint methods are needed, including genomics, neuroscience, climate science, finance, and econometrics, among others. This course serves as an introduction to multiple changepoint detection methods. This course will first address the simpler task of detecting a single changepoint in the mean of a univariate data stream. This is crucial for understanding several state-of-the-art approaches designed for detecting multiple changepoints. Subsequently, we will delve into the fundamentals of two classical approaches for multiple changepoint detection: (1) binary segmentation and (2) dynamic programming. We will review their statistical and computational properties and explain some of their recent improvements. We will illustrate the application of these approaches to genomic datasets using the Python/R programming language. *Additional teacher* Arnaud Liehrmann *Short-bio * Guillem Rigaill is a senior researcher (aka DR) at INRAE in France. He is a member of the GNet Team at the Institute of Plant Sciences Paris-Saclay and the Stat & Genome team at the Laboratoire de Mathématiques et Modélisation d'Évry. He received his PhD from AgroParisTech in 2010 for the development of algorithms and statistical methods for the analysis of breast cancer data. His research interests focus on developing efficient algorithms and appropriate statistical methodologies for analyzing high-dimensional genomic and transcriptomic data. He has been developing new models for changepoint detection and proposed inference procedures for these models that are both statistically and algorithmically efficient. He has applied those new tools in many interdisciplinary projects involving cancer and plant biologists, bioinformaticians, and statisticians. Data Science PhD Program

by Alberto Chiarini 18 Feb '25

18 Feb '25

Seminari on-line del gruppo UMI - PRISMA (http://www.umi-prisma.polito.it/) I seminari PRISMA hanno un formato di "colloquium" per creare un'occasione di scambio e discussione con tutta la comunità dei probabilisti e statistici italiani. Ogni giornata comprende due relatori che tengono due seminari di 30 minuti strettamente connessi, per presentare alla comunità una prospettiva sul proprio ambito di ricerca. Da quest'anno le registrazioni dei seminari vengono pubblicate sul canale YouTube dell'UMI: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmySpc-jrtAMq84VH71evyqPc1hl6eEQb Il prossimo appuntamento è per lunedì 3 marzo 2025. I relatori saranno Giuseppe Cannizzaro (University of Warwick) e Fabio Toninelli (Technical University of Vienna) che parleranno di: Teorema del Limite Centrale superdiffusivo per l'equazione di Burgers stocastica alla dimensione critica. con il seguente orario: 16:30 Primo seminario 17:00 Pausa e discussione 17:15 Secondo seminario 17:45 Conclusione e discussione Trovate di seguito il riassunto. I seminari verranno trasmessi via Zoom al seguente link: https://unipd.zoom.us/j/81175434050?pwd=hCozT8gqnlu49Io6LawZWAwLDrnaJ7.1 Meeting ID: 811 7543 4050 Passcode: 871716 Vi aspettiamo numerosi! Alberto Chiarini e Sonia Mazzucchi %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% RELATORI: Giuseppe Cannizzaro (University of Warwick) e Fabio Toninelli (Technical University of Vienna) TITOLO: Teorema del Limite Centrale superdiffusivo per l'equazione di Burgers stocastica alla dimensione critica RIASSUNTO: L'equazione di Burgers Stocastica (EBS) è stata introdotta da van Beijren, Kutner and Spohn per modellizzare sistemi diffusivi asimmetrici con una singola quantità conservata (e.g. il modello di esclusione semplice asimmetrico). Nella dimensione sub-critica d=1, EBS coincide con la derivata dell'equazione KPZ il cui comportamento a grandi scale è superdiffusivo con crescita polinomiale e le cui fluttuazioni coincidono con il KPZ Fixed Point, mentre nelle dimensioni super-critiche d>2, è diffusivo e converge a un'equazione del calore stocastica anisotropica. Alla dimensione critica, è stato congetturato che la EBS sia superdiffusiva con crescita logaritmica con un esponente preciso ma ciò è stato mostrato solo modulo correzioni di ordine inferiore. Il presente seminario è basato su un lavoro assieme a Quentin Moulard https://arxiv.org/abs/2501.00344, in cui indentifichiamo la superdiffusività e deriviamo le asintotiche della matrice di diffusione in modo esatto. Inoltre, dimostriamo che nel limite di scala corretto, ovvero che tiene presente della crescita logaritmiche alla diffusività, la soluzione di EBS soddisfa un teorema del limite centrale. Il nostro è il primo limite di scala superdiffusivo per un'equazione alle derivate parziali stocastica critica, al di là dell'ambito di applicabilità della teoria delle strutture di regolarità di Hairer. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

School on Robust Statistics: Theory and Computation - Ispra (IT) - 15-17 May 2025
by Francesca Greselin 17 Feb '25

17 Feb '25

*School on Robust Statistics: Theory and Computation* *Date:* 15-17 May 2025 *Location:* Joint Research Centre of the European Commission, Ispra (Varese), Italy The *School on Robust Statistics* <https://datascience.maths.unitn.it/icors2025/school.html> is an *educational event* tailored for students, early-career researchers, and professionals. It precedes the International Conference on Robust Statistics (ICORS 2025) <https://datascience.maths.unitn.it/icors2025/> and offers a unique opportunity to learn from leading experts in robust statistics. The school will cover a broad range of topics central to robust statistics, starting with foundational principles and concepts that underpin robustness, such as breakdown points, influence functions, and the asymptotic properties of robust estimation techniques. These foundational elements are crucial for understanding why robust methods are indispensable in real data analysis, particularly in scenarios where standard approaches fail. Whether you are a student just beginning your journey into robust statistics or an experienced researcher looking to stay at the forefront of the field, this school provides an opportunity to learn, connect, and grow in an intellectually stimulating environment. *Lectures will be delivered in English.* The school has an excellent lineup of top-class lecturers covering a range of diverse topics in Robust Statistics: - Rik Lopuhaä (TU Delft, Netherlands) - Abhik Ghosh (Indian Statistical Institute, India) - Peter Rousseeuw (KU Leuven, Belgium) - Marco Riani (University of Parma, Italy) - Valentin Todorov (UNIDO, Austria) *Registration:* - *Opening Date:* 15 January 2025 - *Fee:* Free of charge - *Link to Register:* https://web.jrc.ec.europa.eu/remjrc/screen/meeting/16640/registration-form For further details, please visit: https://datascience.maths.unitn.it/icors2025/school.html ------------------------------ We look forward to welcoming you to *Ispra!* Best regards, The ICORS 2025 Organizing Committee - Claudio Agostinelli (University of Trento) - Francesca Greselin (University of Milano Bicocca) - Domenico Perrotta (Joint Research Center) - Marco Riani (University of Parma) Francesca Greselin <https://www.unimib.it/francesca-greselin>, Associate Professor University of Milano-Bicocca Scopus <https://www.scopus.com/authid/detail.uri?authorId=25936155400> - Wos <https://www.webofscience.com/wos/author/record/A-8770-2015> - ArXiv <https://arxiv.org/search/?query=Francesca+Greselin&searchtype=all&source=he…> - Personal page <https://sites.google.com/unimib.it/francesca-greselin> - ResearchGate <https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Francesca-Greselin/research> - ‪‪Google Scholar‬ <https://scholar.google.com/citations?hl=it&user=xOOTbBAAAAAJ> https://unimib.webex.com/meet/francesca.greselin
