Seminario PRISMA mar 3 dic 2024
by Francesco Caravenna 19 Nov '24

19 Nov '24

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 martedì 3 dicembre 2024. I relatori saranno Sonia Mazzucchi e Stefano Bonaccorsi (Università di Trento) che ci parleranno di Passeggiate casuali sul piano complesso ed equazioni del calore di ordine superiore al secondo con il seguente orario: 16:00 Primo seminario 16:30 Pausa e discussione 16:45 Secondo seminario 17:15 Conclusione e discussione Trovate di seguito il riassunto. I seminari verranno trasmessi via Zoom al seguente link: https://uniroma1.zoom.us/j/88679569146 Meeting ID: 886 7956 9146 Vi aspettiamo numerosi! Valentina Cammarota e Francesco Caravenna %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% RELATORI: Sonia Mazzucchi (Università di Trento) e Stefano Bonaccorsi (Università di Trento) TITOLO: Passeggiate casuali sul piano complesso ed equazioni del calore di ordine superiore al secondo RIASSUNTO: La celebre formula di Feynman-Kac, che fornisce una rappresentazione della soluzione dell'equazione del calore in termini di un integrale rispetto alla misura di Wiener, non può essere generalizzata al caso in cui il laplaciano, o più in generale l'operatore ellittico del secondo ordine, è sostituito da un operatore di ordine superiore a 2. In altre parole per tale classe di equazioni differenziali di ordine elevato non è possibile costruire un processo stocastico che svolga lo stesso ruolo giocato dal moto Browniano per l'equazione del calore. Nella prima parte del seminario si illustreranno dapprima le ragioni di questo risultato no-go per poi descrivere un possibile metodo per aggirarlo tramite la costruzione di opportune successioni di passeggiate casuali nel piano complesso. Nella seconda parte del seminario si descriveranno ulteriori applicazioni e generalizzazioni di tale tecnica. In particolare si illustrerà la costruzione di un calcolo stocastico associato alla successione di passeggiate casuali e la dimostrazione di formule di Feynman-Kac per PDE di ordine elevato, anche nel caso di derivate di tipo frazionario. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Reminder: Bertram Duering in Sapienza
by Enrico Scalas 18 Nov '24

18 Nov '24

Car* collegh*, mi permetto di ricordare il seguente annuncio inviato più di un mese fa. Il seminario si terrà domani. -- Il 19 novembre 2024, in aula 24 del Dipartimento di Scienze Statistiche, Sapienza, Università di Roma, alle ore 14, il Prof. Bertram Düring della University of Warwick, Mathematics Institute terrà un seminario dal titolo From interacting agents to emerging patterns in economics and sociology Riassunto: Real-world systems in economics and sociology often consist of a large number of interacting agents that may form patterns or develop a collective behaviour. Typical applications include wealth and income distribution in an economy and opinion formation in a society. Mathematical techniques originating from statistical mechanics can be successfully developed further to model such systems and obtain mesoscopic and macroscopic descriptions of the microscopic dynamics. Such approaches frequently lead to generalisations of the classical Boltzmann equation for gas dynamics and associated limit partial differential equations. In this talk I will discuss different kinetic models for wealth distribution and opinion formation, and present analytical and numerical results. Tutte le persone interessate sono invitate a partecipare. Chi fosse interessato a partecipare a distanza, per favore, mi scriva a: enrico.scalas(a)uniroma1.it -- Cordiali saluti, Enrico Scalas

Seminario Davide Bignamimi - Politecnico di Milano - 27 Novembre 2024
by Luca Scarpa 18 Nov '24

18 Nov '24

Si segnala il seguente seminario a tutti gli interessati. Mercoledì 27 Novembre 2024, ore 11:00. Aula Seminari III Piano, Dipartimento di Matematica, Politecnico di Milano. Speaker: Davide Bignamini, Università degli Studi dell'Insubria. Title: Strong uniqueness for SPDEs and regularity of Kolmogorov equations. Abstract: Pathwise uniqueness plays a crucial role in the investigation of the existence of strong solutions to Stochastic Differential Equations (SDEs) since the seminal result by Yamada and Watanabe in 1971, where they proved that weak existence and pathwise uniqueness imply strong existence. A few years later, Zvonkin introduced the so-called Zvonkin transformation, which allows to remove a drift term by means of a suitable change of coordinates using the Ito formula, and then applies the result of Yamada and Watanabe to construct strong solutions to a class of SDEs with rough drift coefficient. In recent years, these techniques have been extended to Stochastic Partial Differential Equations (SPDEs) . One of the main tools for proving pathwise uniqueness in infinite dimensions is the so-called Itô-Tanaka trick, which involves replacing the "bad" drift term with the solution to a suitable Kolmogorov equation. In this talk, we will examine these topics for a class of parabolic and hyperbolic SPDEs.

12 Nov '24

Dear Colleagues, We would like to invite you to the following SPASS seminar, jointly organized by UniPi, SNS, UniFi and UniSi: *Exclusion Processes with non-reversible boundary: Hydrodynamics and Large Deviations* by *João Pedro Mangi* (*IMPA*) The seminar will take place on TUE, 19.11.2024 at *11:00 CET* in Aula Tricerri, Dipartimento di Matematica e Informatica "Ulisse Dini", Università degli Studi di Firenze, and streamed online at this link <https://meet.google.com/gji-phwo-vbg>. The organizers, A. Agazzi, G. Bet, A. Caraceni, F. Grotto, G. Zanco https://sites.google.com/unipi.it/spass -------------------------------------------- *Abstract: We consider a family of exclusion processes defined on the discrete interval with weak boundary interaction that allows the creation and annihilation of particles on a neighborhood of radius L of the boundary under very general rates. We prove that the hydrodynamic equation is the heat equation with non-linear Robin boundary conditions. We present a particular choice of boundary rates for which we have multiple stationary solutions but for which it still holds the uniqueness of the solution of its hydrodynamic equation. We also prove the associated dynamical large deviations principle. Joint work with Claudio Landim and Beatriz Salvador.*

Wednesday, November 27, 2024, 1:30 - 2:30 PM CET, Sala del Consiglio Prof. Giulia Livieri, London School of Economics A Mean Field Game approach for pollution regulation of competitive firms Abstract: We develop a model based on mean-field games of competitive firms producing similar goods according to a standard AK model with a depreciation rate of capital generating pollution as a byproduct. Our analysis focuses on the widely-used cap-and-trade pollution regulation. Under this regulation, firms have the flexibility to respond by implementing pollution abatement, reducing output, and participating in emission trading, while a regulator dynamically allocates emission allowances to each firm. The resulting mean-field game is of linear quadratic type and equivalent to a mean-field type control problem, i.e., it is a potential game. We find explicit solutions to this problem through the solutions to differential equations of Riccati type. Further, we investigate the carbon emission equilibrium price that satisfies the market clearing condition and find a specific form of FBSDE of McKean-Vlasov type with common noise. The solution to this equation provides an approximate equilibrium price. Additionally, we demonstrate that the degree of competition is vital in determining the economic consequences of pollution regulation. Joint work with G. Del Sarto and M. Leocata. We look forward to meeting you in Pavia. Kind Regards, Giacomo Bormetti Giacomo Bormetti Department of Economics and Management, University of Pavia

Seminario CLIMATH 20 Novembre
by Marta Leocata 09 Nov '24

09 Nov '24

Cari colleghi, Il gruppo UMI-Climath è lieto di invitarvi a una serie di seminari, in presenza e online, dedicati ai recenti avanzamenti teorici nello studio dei modelli matematici della variabilità climatica e dei modelli che includono gli impatti socio-economici associati. Maggiori dettagli sono disponibili sul sito del gruppo Climath: https://sites.google.com/view/gruppo-umi-climath/seminari-ed-attività-del-g… <https://sites.google.com/view/gruppo-umi-climath/seminari-ed-attivit%C3%A0-…> Il Prossimo seminario si terrà in data Mercoledì 20 novembre 2024, alle ore 14:30, presso l’Aula 1101 (D’Antoni), Dipartimento di Matematica, Tor Vergata, Roma, oppure online tramite Teams (richiesta registrazione al link: https://forms.gle/kuPKvHqLDP4RTLj4A) Ecco il programma: 14:30 - Valerio Lucarini (University of Leicester) Titolo: Detecting and Attributing Change in Climate and Complex Systems: Foundations, Green's Functions, and Nonlinear Fingerprints Abstract: Detection and attribution (D&A) studies are cornerstones of climate science, providing crucial evidence for policy decisions. Their goal is to link observed climate change patterns to anthropogenic and natural drivers via the optimal fingerprinting method (OFM). We show that response theory for nonequilibrium systems offers the physical and dynamical basis for OFM, including the concept of causality used for attribution. Our framework clarifies the method's assumptions, advantages, and potential weaknesses. We use our theory to perform D&A for prototypical climate change experiments performed on an energy balance model and on a low-resolution coupled climate model. We also explain the underpinnings of degenerate fingerprinting, which offers early warning indicators for tipping points. Finally, we extend the OFM to the nonlinear response regime. Our analysis shows that OFM has broad applicability across diverse stochastic systems influenced by time-dependent forcings, with potential relevance to ecosystems, quantitative social sciences, and finance, among others. 15:20 - Discussione 15:30 - Gianmarco Del Sarto (Technische Universität Darmstadt) Titolo: Some Perspective on Climate Change through Energy Balance Models Abstract: In this seminar, I will present how Energy Balance Models (EBMs) can be used to explore climate change dynamics. The first part focuses on ongoing research that investigates a fast-slow system where solar radiation acts as the fast component, while a zero-dimensional EBM describes the slow component. This model exhibits mathematical parallels with the seminal stochastic EBM inspired by Hasselmann's proposal, and we explore these similarities in terms of deterministic limits, fluctuations, and large deviations. In the second part, if time allows, I will discuss a completed research project that extends the analysis of 1D EBMs by introducing local instability effects and additive white noise. The model captures the super-greenhouse effect, a tropical feedback mechanism, and incorporates fast weather fluctuations as white noise. By studying the long-term behaviour of the model's invariant measure, we investigate the link between increased greenhouse gas concentrations and extreme weather events. 16:20 - Discussione 16:3 - Tavola Rotonda moderata da Piermarco Cannarsa Speriamo di vedervi numerosi, sia in presenza che online! Saluti, Marta Leocata (a nome del gruppo Climath)

Seminar by Joanna Michalak, Dr.
by monte＠uniroma2.it 09 Nov '24

09 Nov '24

Dear all, Dr. Joanna Michalak (Nicolaus Copernicus University in Torun, Poland) will give a seminar entitled "Integrated Approach to Sentiment Analysis: Optimizing Short Text Analysis Efficiency in the Context of Economics and Finance" on November 14th at 09:30 am in Room 5 at Macro Teaching Hub Engineering Area., Via del Politecnico, 1, University of Roma "Tor Vergata", Roma. The seminar can also be followed online by sending an email to roberto.monte(a)uniroma2.eu Abstract: Big social data (BSD) is widely used in the social sciences, particularly in economics and finance, where it is valued both for its explanatory insights and its predictive power. Predictive analyses leveraging BSD often focus on modeling the relationship between social media activity and stock market movements. The quality of these analyses relies on two main dimensions: (1) models that capture short-term dynamics and account for observed time-series properties, and (2) sentiment analysis methods that are specifically adapted to the unique vocabulary of finance and economics. This presentation addresses these two dimensions. In the first part, we explore a case study of Apple Inc., comparing the effectiveness of VAR, GARCH, and LSTM models for describing short-term interdependencies between social media sentiment and stock market behavior. The second part of the presentation focuses on the performance of various sentiment analysis methods selected to construct sentiment-based indices. This section aims to compare the efficiency and accuracy of different sentiment analysis methods when applied to short text data. The study emphasizes optimization of analysis efficiency by evaluating widely used datasets, such as Senti140. Several research questions guide this investigation: 1. Which sentiment analysis method is most effective in terms of accuracy and processing speed in financial data analysis? 2. Do advanced methods, such as deep learning models (e.g., BERT), outperform traditional lexicon-based techniques and classical machine learning algorithms? 3. What are the differences in sentiment analysis accuracy between general datasets like Senti140 and finance-specific datasets such as FinBERT? The issue of optimizing text data analysis methods remains an open aspect of this research. The ultimate objective of this study is to construct a dataset or lexicon specifically designed and recommended for financial data analysis.

Seminar by Dr. Andrea Modena.
by Giorgio Rizzini 05 Nov '24

05 Nov '24

Dear all, as part of the Quantitative Finance Seminars, Dr. Andrea Modena (University of Mannheim) will give a seminar entitled "Coordinating Dividends and Capital Regulation" (joint work with Luca Regis and Salvatore Federico) on November 11th at 11 am in Aula Fermi at Scuola Normale Superiore in Pisa.The seminar can also be followed online by sending an email to giorgio.rizzini(a)sns.it. Best regards, Giorgio Rizzini *Abstract: * We develop a tractable dynamic corporate finance model to analyze the effects of state-contingent dividend restrictions and capital requirements on firm optimal policies and value. In the model, a risk-neutral shareholder manages a firm that generates stochastic income under time-varying macroeconomic conditions. The manager maximizes shareholder value by paying dividends, holding reserves, and issuing costly equity without agency conflicts. We analytically solve the firm's stochastic control problem and derive its reserve distribution in closed form. The model predicts that restricting dividends in "bad" macroeconomic states—characterized by lower and more volatile cash flows— reduces shareholder value but can effectively sustain the firm's credit capacity. The policy, however, curtails the firm's recapitalization incentives and credit capacity in "good" states. Coordinating dividends with counter-cyclical capital regulation can mitigate value losses but negatively impacts recapitalization incentives further.

05 Nov '24

Seminari on-line del gruppo UMI - PRISMA (http://www.umi-prisma.polito.it/) Ricordiamo che oggi, martedì 5 novembre 2024, Enzo Orsingher (Sapienza Università di Roma) e Wolfgang Woess (Technische Universitaet Graz) ci parleranno di Il moto browniano iperbolico e le sue ramificazioni con il seguente orario: 16:00 Primo seminario 16:30 Pausa e discussione 16:45 Secondo seminario 17:15 Conclusione e discussione Trovate di seguito il riassunto. I seminari verranno trasmessi via Zoom al seguente link: https://uniroma1.zoom.us/j/88679569146 Meeting ID: 886 7956 9146 Vi aspettiamo numerosi! Valentina Cammarota e Francesco Caravenna %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% RELATORI: Enzo Orsingher (Sapienza Università di Roma) e Wolfgang Woess (Technische Universitaet Graz) TITOLO: Il moto browniano iperbolico e le sue ramificazioni RIASSUNTO: Il moto browniano ramificato (branching Brownian motion - BBM) in ambito euclideo è stato studiato intensamente durante molti decenni da studiosi rinomati. Il BBM sul disco (ossia semipiano) iperbolico ha ricevuto molta meno attenzione. Un lavoro profondo di Lalley and Sellke (1997) ha messo in luce la fase ricorrente, risp. transitoria del BBM sul disco di Poincaré. In particolare, Lalley e Sellke hanno determinato la dimensione di Hausdorff dell'insieme limite sulla frontiera (il cerchio unitario) in funzione del tasso di ramificazione delle particelle. Nel primo dei due seminari viene introdotta la geometria del disco iperbolico con la metrica di Poincaré e del modello equivalente del semipiano superiore. Si presenta il Laplaciano iperbolico, cioè l'operatore di Laplace-Beltrami associato a questa superficie. Esso è l'operatore infinitesimale del moto browniano iperbolico. Si presentano alcune proprietà chiave di questo processo. Nel secondo seminario si introduce il moto browniano ramificato iperbolico. Vengono presentati alcuni nuovi risultati. In particolare, si forniscono i tassi della massima e minima distanza iperbolica della popolazione al tempo t dal punto di partenza e delle stime asintotiche più precise nella fase transitoria. L'altro tema principale riguarda il comportamento delle distribuzioni empiriche della popolazione ramificante e la loro convergenza a una distribuzione limite aleatoria sulla frontiera di supporto infinito. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% 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 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Seminario Pablo Groisman, Lunedì 11 Novembre, Sapienza Università di Roma
by Silvestri, Vittoria 04 Nov '24

04 Nov '24

Segnalo il seguente seminario, che si terrà Lunedì prossimo in Sapienza. *Lunedì 11 Novembre, ore 14:00,* Aula B, Dipartimento di Matematica, Sapienza Università di Roma *Speaker:* Pablo Groisman (University of Buenos Aires) *Title: *The Kuramoto Model in Random Geometric Graphs *Abstract: *The Kuramoto model is a nonlinear system of ODEs that represents the behavior of coupled oscillators. The coupling is determined by a given graph and pushes the system towards synchronization. An important question is whether there is global synchronization (the system converges to a state in which all the phases coincide from almost every initial condition) or if the system supports other patterns. We will consider the Kuramoto model on random geometric graphs in the d dimensional torus and prove a scaling limit. The limiting object is given by the heat equation. On the one hand this shows that the nonlinearities of the system disappear under this scaling and on the other hand, provides evidence that stable equilibria of the Kuramoto model on these graphs are, as n → ∞, in correspondence with those of the heat equation, which are explicit and given by twisted states. In view of this, we conjecture the existence of twisted stable equilibria with high probability as n → ∞. We'll prove this conjecture in dimension d=1. ******************************** Vittoria Silvestri Assistant Professor Department of Mathematics University "La Sapienza" Piazzale Aldo Moro, 5 00185 - Rome ********************************

Apologies for cross posting. Con preghiera di diffusione. Il candidato ideale deve avere della solide basi in inferenza Bayesiana da un punto di vista statistico piuttosto che Machine Learning. Cordiali Saluti, Fabrizio Leisen Professor of Statistics Head of the Statistics Group King’s College London Department of Mathematics Strand | WC2R 2LS | London ---------- Forwarded message --------- Da: Kevin Wilson <0000c562ec979ac8-dmarc-request(a)jiscmail.ac.uk> Date: mer 30 ott 2024 alle ore 14:41 Subject: JOB: Research Associate in Bayesian Statistics, Newcastle University To: <allstat(a)jiscmail.ac.uk> JOB: Research Associate in Bayesian Statistics School of Mathematics, Statistics and Physics, Newcastle University Full advert: Research Associate in Bayesian Statistics Job Details | Newcastle University< https://jobs.ncl.ac.uk/job/Newcastle-Research-Associate-in-Bayesian-Statist… > Applications are invited for a Research Associate position in Bayesian Statistics, for a period of 24 months. The project is at the forefront of Bayesian inference and aims to design a novel Bayesian methodology to implement Bayesian Additive Regression Trees (BART) models to deal with non-linear phenomena. In particular, the aim is to bridge the Loss-based methodology to the framework of BART, building on the previous works of Prof Cristiano Villa and Prof Fabrizio Leisen on model selection, linear regression models and Gaussian graphical models. The successful candidate will work on developing prior distributions to estimate the structure of the trees and the number of trees in a BART model, and building scalable and efficient computational tools to ease the implementation of the methodology. The candidate must have a solid background in computational methods for Bayesian inference to develop efficient algorithms for the new proposed modelling framework.

Seminario di Stanislav Smirnov (medaglia Fields 2010) a Roma Tre
by Elisabetta Candellero 31 Oct '24

31 Oct '24

Stanislav Smirnov (medaglia Fields 2010) terra' un seminario dal titolo "Coulomb gas and lattice models" il giorno mercoledi' 6 novembre, ore 16:00. Il seminario si terra' in Aula M1, Blocco Aule Lungotevere Dante 376 Dipartimento di Matematica e Fisica Universita' degli Studi Roma Tre Abstract: Even before the introduction of Conformal Field Theory by Belavin, Polyakov and Zamolodchikov, it appeared indirectly in the work of den Nijs and Nienhuis using Coulomb gas techniques. The latter postulate (unrigorously) that height functions of lattice models converge to the Gaussian Free Field, allowing to derive many exponents and dimensions of 2D lattice models. This convergence is in many ways mysterious, in particular it was never formulated in the presence of a boundary, but rather on a torus or a cylinder. We will discuss possible formulations on general domains or Riemann surfaces and their relations to CFT, SLE and conformal invariance of critical lattice models. Interestingly, new objects in complex geometry and potential theory seem to arise.

Seminario di probabilita' (Roma Tre), 6/11/2024, Amitai Linker (Santiago del Cile)
by Elisabetta Candellero 31 Oct '24

31 Oct '24

*Data e orario*: Mercoledi' 6 novembre alle ore 14:30 Via della Vasca Navale 84, Dipartimento di Matematica e Fisica, Universita' degli Studi roma Tre, AULA B *Relatore*: Amitai Linker (Universidad Andrés Bello, Santiago, Cile) *Titolo*: "The contact process on dynamic scale-free networks" *Abstract*: In this talk, I will present recent results on the contact process on two specific types of scale-free, inhomogeneous random networks that evolve either through edge resampling or by resampling entire neighborhoods of vertices. Depending on the type of graph, the selected stationary dynamic, the tail exponent of the degree distribution, and the updating rate, we identify parameter regimes that result in either fast or slow extinction. In the latter case, we determine metastable exponents that exhibit first-order phase transitions. This is joint work with Emmanuel Jacob (ENS Lyon) and Peter Mörters (Universität zu Köln).

topical collection on JOTP
by Bruno Toaldo 31 Oct '24

31 Oct '24

Dear All, The *Journal of Theoretical Probability* has recently launched a topical collection titled *"Non-Markov Dynamics and Non-Local Operators"* https ://link.springer.com/collections/fhbhjheefi. This initiative responds to the growing interest in modeling anomalous phenomena, such as anomalous relaxations and diffusions. The scope of this theory encompasses various aspects of random processes, including, but not limited to, semi-Markov processes, continuous-time random walks, (generalized) fractional Brownian motions, long-range dependent processes, and non-Gaussian measures. This topical collection invites submissions on recent advances in these areas broadly, including works focused on specific classes of non-Markov processes or non-local operators with potential applications in probability theory. Submissions for publication are now open. All submitted papers will follow the journal’s standard peer-review process. The review will be managed by the Editors-in-Chief, myself, and Dr. Giacomo Ascione as guest editor. Please feel free to share this announcement: https://link.springer.com /journal/10959/updates/27709086. Thank you all, and best wishes, Giacomo and Bruno

Seminario 05/11 ore 11 A Bayesian Model for Co-clustering Ordinal Data with Informative Missing Entries
by ANTONIO PIEVATOLO 30 Oct '24

30 Oct '24

[ENGLISH BELOW] Con preghiera di diffusione, si avvisa che in data 05-11-2024, alle ore 11:00 precise, presso la sala Pentagonale dell'Area della Ricerca 1 del CNR di Milano in via A. Corti 12, la Dr. Alice Giampino, Università degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca, terrà un seminario dal titolo A Bayesian Model for Co-clustering Ordinal Data with Informative Missing Entries Abstract: Several approaches have been proposed in the literature for clustering multivariate ordinal data. These methods typically treat missing values as absent information, rather than recognizing them as valuable for profiling population characteristics. To address this gap, we introduce a Bayesian nonparametric model for co-clustering multivariate ordinal data that treats censored observations as informative, rather than merely missing. We demonstrate that this offers a significant improvement in understanding the underlying structure of the data. Our model exploits the flexibility of two independent Dirichlet processes, allowing us to infer potentially distinct subpopulations that characterize the latent structure of both subjects and variables. The ordinal nature of the data is addressed by introducing latent variables, while a matrix factorization specification is adopted to handle the high dimensionality of the data in a parsimonious way. The conjugate structure of the model enables an explicit derivation of the full conditional distributions of all the random variables in the model, which facilitates seamless posterior inference using a Gibbs sampling algorithm. We demonstrate the method's performance through simulations and by analyzing politician and movie ratings data. Gli interessati potranno partecipare al seminario da remoto, utilizzando il link indicato qui sotto https://teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-join/19%3ameeting_OTk1YjcxOWMtYjQzYy00… oppure in presenza previa prenotazione via email a federico.cortese(a)mi.imati.cnr.it<mailto:federico.cortese@mi.imati.cnr.it> Distinti saluti, Federico P.

Seminario PRISMA mar 5 nov 2024
by Francesco Caravenna 29 Oct '24

29 Oct '24

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 martedì 5 novembre 2024. I relatori saranno Enzo Orsingher (Sapienza Università di Roma) e Wolfgang Woess (Technische Universitaet Graz) che ci parleranno di Il moto browniano iperbolico e le sue ramificazioni con il seguente orario: 16:00 Primo seminario 16:30 Pausa e discussione 16:45 Secondo seminario 17:15 Conclusione e discussione Trovate di seguito il riassunto. I seminari verranno trasmessi via Zoom al seguente link: https://uniroma1.zoom.us/j/88679569146 Meeting ID: 886 7956 9146 Vi aspettiamo numerosi! Valentina Cammarota e Francesco Caravenna %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% RELATORI: Enzo Orsingher (Sapienza Università di Roma) e Wolfgang Woess (Technische Universitaet Graz) TITOLO: Il moto browniano iperbolico e le sue ramificazioni RIASSUNTO: Il moto browniano ramificato (branching Brownian motion - BBM) in ambito euclideo è stato studiato intensamente durante molti decenni da studiosi rinomati. Il BBM sul disco (ossia semipiano) iperbolico ha ricevuto molta meno attenzione. Un lavoro profondo di Lalley and Sellke (1997) ha messo in luce la fase ricorrente, risp. transitoria del BBM sul disco di Poincaré. In particolare, Lalley e Sellke hanno determinato la dimensione di Hausdorff dell'insieme limite sulla frontiera (il cerchio unitario) in funzione del tasso di ramificazione delle particelle. Nel primo dei due seminari viene introdotta la geometria del disco iperbolico con la metrica di Poincaré e del modello equivalente del semipiano superiore. Si presenta il Laplaciano iperbolico, cioè l'operatore di Laplace-Beltrami associato a questa superficie. Esso è l'operatore infinitesimale del moto browniano iperbolico. Si presentano alcune proprietà chiave di questo processo. Nel secondo seminario si introduce il moto browniano ramificato iperbolico. Vengono presentati alcuni nuovi risultati. In particolare, si forniscono i tassi della massima e minima distanza iperbolica della popolazione al tempo t dal punto di partenza e delle stime asintotiche più precise nella fase transitoria. L'altro tema principale riguarda il comportamento delle distribuzioni empiriche della popolazione ramificante e la loro convergenza a una distribuzione limite aleatoria sulla frontiera di supporto infinito. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

SPASS seminar: Claudio Macci

25 Oct '24

Dear Colleagues, We would like to invite you to the following SPASS seminar, jointly organized by UniPi, SNS, UniFi and UniSi (abstract below): *Large and moderate deviations for Gaussian neural network* by *Claudio Macci* (Università di Roma Tor Vergata) The seminar will take place on *TUE, 29.10.2024* at *14:00 CET *in Aula Seminari, Dipartimento di Matematica, UNIPI and streamed online at this link <https://meet.google.com/gji-phwo-vbg>. The organizers, A. Agazzi, G. Bet, A. Caraceni, F. Grotto, G. Zanco https://sites.google.com/unipi.it/spass <https://www.google.com/url?q=https://sites.google.com/unipi.it/spass&source…> -------------------------------------------- *Title: Large and moderate deviations for Gaussian neural network* *Abstract: We prove large and moderate deviations for the output of Gaussian fully connected neural networks. The main achievements concern deep neural networks (i.e., when the model has more than one hidden layer) and hold for bounded and continuous pre-activation functions. However, for deep neural networks fed by a single input, we have results even if the pre-activation is ReLU. When the network is shallow (i.e., there is exactly one hidden layer) the large and moderate principles hold for quite general pre-activations and in an infinite-dimensional setting.Joint work with Barbara Pacchiarotti (Università di Roma Tor Vergata) and Giovanni Luca Torrisi (IAC-CNR).*
