Carissimi colleghi, scusandomi per eventuali invii multipli, vi inoltro il seguente annuncio di seminario. Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare. Cordialmente, Enea Bongiorno -------------------------------- - data e orario: 23 maggio 2024 ore 15.00 - aula 204, campus Perrone, via Perrone, 18, Novara. Università del Piemonte Orientale. - on-line: meet.google.com/iap-gjcr-bkb Title: *Regression analysis with density functions in Bayes spaces* *Ivana Pavlů*, Palacký University Olomouc, Czech Republic *Abstract*: Regression analysis offers tools for explaining the relation between (a set of) dependent and independent variables. Recent advances extend the available response types from uni- or multivariate to functional, and more recently also distributional responses. For functional distributions, often represented through probability density functions, the Bayes space framework was developed to respect the relative information they carry. The Hilbert space structure of Bayes space enables one to utilize standard methods of functional data analysis for the use on - properly transformed - density functions. Focusing on regression analysis, it is possible to construct adequate models with densities on the side of both the dependent and independent variables. In this seminar, a brief overview of regression models for univariate densities will be presented. A closer attention will be given to the possible generalization of additive regression model for bivariate distributions. Finally, an outlook at the Bayesian inference in linear regression with probability densities will be discussed. All proposed methods will be demonstrated on real data from the fields of geochemistry and demographics. ----------------------------------- Locandina dell'evento <https://drive.google.com/file/d/1AW4P1_HNdVO7Ot70mjM-KCQLhnSSVmRi/view?usp=…> Seminari Matematici Statistici <https://seminari-ms.uniupo.it/home-page> ----------------------------------- -- Enea G.

talk Prof. Domenico Marinucci on May 29 - DIMA - UNIGE
by Ernesto De Vito 16 May '24

16 May '24

Dear all, you are all invited to participate to the following seminar. Speaker : Domenico Marinucci (https://sites.google.com/view/domenicomarinucci/home) Affiliation: Dipartimento di Matematica - Università Roma Tor Vergata Title: Spectral complexity of deep neural networks Date: Monday, May 29, 2024 at 11.30 Place: Aula 704 (7th floor) , Dipartimento di Matematica at University of Genova, Via Dodencaneso 35, Abstract: It is well-known that randomly initialized, push-forward, fully-connected neural networks weakly converge to isotropic Gaussian processes, in the limit where the width of all layers goes to infinity. In this paper, we propose to use the angular power spectrum of the limiting fields to characterize the complexity of the network architecture. In particular, we define sequences of random variables associated with the angular power spectrum, and provide a full characterization of the network complexity in terms of the asymptotic distribution of these sequences as the depth diverges. On this basis, we classify neural networks as low-disorder, sparse, or high-disorder; we show how this classification highlights a number of distinct features for standard activation functions, and in particular, sparsity properties of ReLU networks. Our theoretical results are also validated by numerical simulations.

Seminar: Bayesian network structural learning from complex survey data - P. Vicard
by Mira Antonietta 15 May '24

15 May '24

On behalf of Prof Di Serio I am sharing the following announcement ———————- The Statistical Network Science committee of the Bernoulli Society invites you to an online talk this week Thursday: Thursday May 16 2-3 pm UK time Title: Bayesian network structural learning from complex survey data Statistical Network Science Seminar Series- Bernoulli Society Speaker: Paola Vicard (Department of Economics, Università Roma Tre, Rome, Italy) Abstract: The association structure of a Bayesian network can be known in advance by subject matter knowledge or have to be learned from a database. One of the most widely used procedures is the PC algorithm consisting in carrying out several independence tests on the available data set and in building a Bayesian network according to the tests results. In case of data driven learning, the PC algorithm is based on the irremissible assumption that data are independent and identically distributed. Unfortunately, official statistics data are generally collected through complex sampling designs, then the aforementioned assumption is not met. In such a context the PC algorithm fails in learning the structure. To avoid this, the sample selection must be taken into account in the structural learning process. A modified version of the PC algorithm is proposed for inferring causal structure from complex survey data. It is based on resampling techniques for finite populations. A simulation experiment showing the robustness with respect to departures from the assumptions and the good performance of the proposed algorithm is carried out.

In particolare, si propone di utilizzare, in maniera appropriata e con la finalità di sollecitare le abilità comunicative ed argomentative, alcuni problemi e paradossi della probabilità condizionata che nel corso del tempo sono stati occasione di discussioni vivaci e intriganti. I problemi selezionati e sperimentati nel corso degli ultimi anni in classi della scuola secondaria, nei quali l'enfasi è posta soprattutto sul significato dei simboli e delle formule, forniscono anche un modo per stimolare gli obiettivi di "processo" (argomentare e dimostrare, comunicare, rappresentare, collegare) spesso trascurati a favore dei soli obiettivi di "contenuto". Una tale modalità operativa può essere d'aiuto sia agli insegnanti per mitigare le difficoltà che loro stessi soventemente riscontrano nella concettualizzazione (ovvero quella discontinuità tra i processi cognitivi degli studenti e l'astrazione) e sia agli stessi studenti per meglio orientarsi quando le circostanze della vita quotidiana sicuramente lo richiederanno. Gli interessati sono cordialmente invitati a partecipare, *Antonio Di Crescenzo* *Barbara Martinucci* *Alessandra Meoli* *Serena Spina*

OWABC Seminar: Mark Beaumont - 30th May 9am UK time
by Massimiliano Tamborrino 14 May '24

14 May '24

Dear all, the last OWABC www.warwick.ac.uk/oneworldabc<http://www.warwick.ac.uk/oneworldabc> seminar of Season 5 is quickly approaching. We are glad to announce that our next speaker is Mark Beaumont (University of Bristol), who will talk about "Model misspecification in population genomic" on Thursday the 30th May at 9am UK time. Abstract: In likelihood-free settings, problematic effects of model misspecification can manifest themselves during computation, leading to nonsensical answers, particularly causing convergence problems in sequential algorithms. This issue has been well studied in the last 10 years, leading to a number of methods for robust inference. In practical applications, likelihood-free methods tend to be applied to the output of complex simulations where there is a choice of summary statistics that can be computed. One approach to handling misspecification is to simply not use summary statistics computed from simulations of the model under the prior that cannot be matched with those observed in the data. This presentation gives a brief review of methods for observing and handling misspecification in ABC and SBI, and then discusses approaches that we have explored in a population genomic modelling framework. The talk will be streamed on MS Teams, at the link https://teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-join/19%3ameeting_NWFkYmE2MTgtZTNiNS00… Meeting ID: 349 104 341 838 Passcode: YxPUhR We are looking forward to seeing you at the next OWABC Seminar, best, Massimiliano on the behalf of the OWABC Seminar Organisers ------ Dr. Massimiliano Tamborrino Associate Professor and Warwick International Higher Education Academy (WIHEA) Fellow Department of Statistics University of Warwick https://warwick.ac.uk/tamborrino
