SEMINARS IN STATISTICS @ COLLEGIO CARLO ALBERTO <https://www.carloalberto.org/events/category/seminars/seminars-in-statistic…> Venerdi 2 Febbraio 2024, alle ore 12.00, presso il Collegio Carlo Alberto, in Piazza Arbarello 8, Torino, si terrà il seguente seminario: ------------------------------------------------ Speaker: Luca Trapin (Università di Bologna) Title: *Tail index regression forest* Abstract: Regression analysis of the tail index has received increasing attention over the last few years. The availability of large and complex datasets has stimulated the development of tail index regression techniques that can capture complex relationships between a large number of predictors and a dependent variable of interest. However, available methods are either flexible and asymptotically justified but do not scale well with the dimension of the predictor space, or well-suited in high-dimension but lack asymptotic results. This paper presents a novel random forest approach that fills this gap. We establish the asymptotic normality of our tail index regression forest estimator under mild assumptions on the tail behavior of the dependent variable. An extensive simulation study and an application to the conditional distribution of ROE for a large cross-section of U.S. companies confirm that our approach outperforms existing parametric and non-parametric tail index regression methods. ------------------------------------------------ Sarà possibile seguire il seminario anche in streaming: Join Zoom Meeting <https://us02web.zoom.us/j/82054178592?pwd=NHI1RHBLYnUwVUFoSW9HSVhUN3F6dz09> Il seminario è organizzato dalla "de Castro" Statistics Initiative www.carloalberto.org/stats -- Pierpaolo De Blasi University of Torino & Collegio Carlo Alberto carloalberto.org/pdeblasi <https://sites.google.com/a/carloalberto.org/pdeblasi/>

De Finetti Risk Seminar: Giorgio Ferrari
by Marco Maggis 26 Jan '24

26 Jan '24

On behalf of the Scientific Committee of the "B. de Finetti Risk Seminars, Milano Lectures on the Mathematical Theory of Economics and Finance”, we are glad to invite you to participate at the following lecture: Giorgio Ferrari Bielefeld University Title: Stationary Mean-field Games with Singular Controls Abstract: In this talk I will present recent and ongoing results on existence, uniqueness, and characterization of equilibria for mean-field games with singular controls. This class of problems finds natural applications in Economics and Finance, such as in investment problems in oligopolies. In those games, the representative agent employs a bounded-variation control in order to maximize an ergodic profit functional depending on a long-time average of the controlled state-process. Several variants of the considered games will be presented, ranging from one-dimensional settings to multi-dimensional ones. LOCATION: The seminar will be held on *February 7, *2024 at *17.00,* Aula 10 (First Floor), Dipart. Matematica, Università di Milano, Via Saldini 50, Milano. Scientific Committee: Prof. Simone Cerreia-Vioglio (Univ. Bocconi) Prof. Marco Frittelli (Univ. degli Studi di Milano) Prof. Fabio Maccheroni (Univ. Bocconi) Prof. Marco Maggis (Univ. degli Studi di Milano) Prof. Massimo Marinacci (Univ. Bocconi) Prof. Emanuela Rosazza Gianin (Univ. Milano-Bicocca)

There is a great selection of speakers and there will be talks related to many aspects of SPDE, including well-posedness, regularity, numerical approximation, large deviations etc. If you are interested in attending the conference, then please register via the Google form on our website. Feel free to send me an email if you would like to have more information. Please note that there is a limited number of places for participants. Please register as soon as possible if you are interested in attending the conference. It is still unclear if there is room for additional talks at the conference.

SOfA conference 2024 - second announcement
by Mastrogiacomo Elisa 24 Jan '24

24 Jan '24

Apologies in advance for cross-posting *** Dear Colleagues, The University of Insubria and Bicocca are honored to host the next international academic conference in the fields of vector and set optimization, stochastic analysis, risk management, and operation research — the 6th International Conference on Set Optimization for Applications (SOfA 2024). This edition is going to take place in Stresa from June 3 to June 7, 2024. The 6th SOfA aims to bring together experts in various fields of set and vector optimization, convex and variational analysis, stochastic analysis, multivariate dynamic programming, multi-criteria decision-making, as well as applications in economics, risk measurement, game theory, and statistics. The conference is, by tradition, very open; the scientific and local committees long to move outside the stream of set and vector optimization and bring together people with a research record in set optimization, with some maybe only remotely related to this topic. So, a very mixed and curious audience is expected. Join us also for a scenic cruise trip on Lago Maggiore and savor the spectacle of its famous islands! We enthusiastically invite all researchers, practitioners, and students in the field described above and related areas to submit proposals for presentations at the 6th SOfA conference. Abstract submission and conference registration are now open! The 6th SOfA also features a couple of tutorials on dynamic programming and stochastic optimal control, and on solution concepts in set-optimization on June 3rd. For more information about the conference, please visit our conference website<https://sites.google.com/view/sofa2024/programme?authuser=0>. If you have any questions, feel free to get in touch with us at sofa2024.conference(a)gmail.com<mailto:sofa2024.conference@gmail.com>. **Given the high tourist demand in June, we strongly recommend booking as soon as possible. Availability is not guaranteed for last-minute bookings, and rates will increase as the conference start date approaches.** We look forward to your active participation in making the 6th SOfA a diverse and engaging conference for knowledge exchange.

Seminario C. Gaetan presso Politecnico di Milano
by Laura Maria Sangalli 24 Jan '24

24 Jan '24

Si avvisa che in data 06.02.24, alle ore 14:30 precise, presso il Dipartimento di Matematica del Politecnico di Milano, in aula Saleri (VI piano) nell’ambito delle attività del MOX, si svolgerà il seguente seminario: Carlo Gaetan, Università Ca’ Foscari Venezia Link: https://mox.polimi.it/mox-colloquia-seminars-list/mox-seminars/?id_evento=2… Titolo: On modelling space-time threshold exceedances Abstract: The modeling of spatiotemporal extremes initially relied on asymptotic models (i.e., max-stable or r-Pareto processes) for block maxima or peaks above high thresholds. However, in many cases, empirical evidence suggested that these models were too rigid to capture the situation where more severe events tend to be more spatially and temporally localized. Recently, in order to cope with this situation, the literature has focused on different types of models that can more flexibly capture the so-called "sub-asymptotic" situation. After briefly reviewing these recent advances, we present a space-time model of threshold exceedances that embeds the spatial dependence in a time series formulation with different forms of limiting dependence with increasing threshold. Inference from the observed data is difficult due to a high-dimensional censoring scheme, and we propose an indirect inference procedure for estimation. The proposal is illustrated using a rainfall dataset.
