Seminars in Statistics at Collegio Carlo Alberto - Yufei ZHANG (IMPERIAL COLLEGE LONDON)

SEMINARS IN STATISTICS @ COLLEGIO CARLO ALBERTO <https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.carloalberto.org/events/category/s…> Venerdì 14/02/2025, presso il Collegio Carlo Alberto, in Piazza Arbarello 8, Torino, si terrà il seguente seminario: ------------------------------------------------ 12.00-13.00 Speaker: Yufei ZHANG (IMPERIAL COLLEGE LONDON) Title: Towards sample-efficient continuous-time reinforcement learning Abstract: Recently, reinforcement learning (RL) has garnered significant research interest. However, much of this attention and success has been focused on the discrete-time setting. RL for continuous-time systems, despite its natural applicability to a wide range of control tasks in physical systems, remains largely unexplored with limited progress. In particular, characterizing the sample efficiency of continuous-time RL algorithms continues to be a challenging and open problem. In this talk, we introduce a principled framework for systematically analyzing regret bounds for continuous-time RL algorithms in episodic model-based settings. Our framework decomposes the regret analysis into two fundamental components: the finite-sample accuracy of model estimation and the performance gap of a greedy policy derived from the estimated models. The finite-sample accuracy is analyzed using filtering theory and concentration inequalities for correlated observations, while the performance gap is quantified by leveraging the robustness of the control problem. By integrating these insights, we optimize the exploration-exploitation trade-off, achieving the best-known sample complexity in the current literature. ------------------------------------------------ Sarà possibile il seminario anche in streaming: chiunque volesse collegarsi è pregato di inviare una email entro *mercoledì 12/02/2025* a matteo.giordano(a)unito.it <mailto:matteo.giordano@unito.it>.

Seminario Raphael Huser presso Politecnico di Milano
by Laura Maria Sangalli 06 Feb '25

06 Feb '25

Si avvisa che in data 10-02-2025, alle ore 14:30 presso il Politecnico di Milano, Edificio 16B (Via Bonardi 9), in Aula 16B.0.1 (piano terra), nell’ambito delle attività del MOX, si svolgerà il seguente seminario: Raphael Huser, KAUST - King Abdullah University of Science and Technology Titolo: Neural Inference Methods for Spatial Extremes in High Dimensions Abstract: Neural Bayes estimators are neural networks that approximate Bayes estimators. They are thus likelihood-free, extremely fast to evaluate, and amenable to rapid uncertainty quantification, while also (approximately) inheriting the appealing large-sample properties of Bayes estimators. Neural Bayes estimators are therefore ideal to use with spatial extremes models observed in high dimensions, where estimation is often a computational bottleneck. In this seminar, I will summarize our research progress in that area and explain how, for any spatial model that can be simulated from, a single neural Bayes estimator can be trained to make fast inference with new data that involve varying sample sizes, varying spatial configurations of observed locations, and varying censoring levels used in peaks-over-threshold modeling. This methodology will be illustrated by application to sea surface temperature extremes over the Red Sea, and air pollution extremes over the whole Arabic peninsula. Joint work with Jordan Richards, Matthew Sainsbury-Dale, and Andrew Zammit-Mangion. This initiative is part of the “Ph.D. Lectures” activity of the project "Departments of Excellence 2023-2027" of the Department of Mathematics of Politecnico di Milano. This activity consists of seminars open to Ph.D. students, followed by meetings with the speaker to discuss and go into detail on the topics presented at the talk.
