Short Course 2016: "COPULAS FOR HYDROLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES"
by Gianfausto SALVADORI 01 Mar '16

01 Mar '16

**************** Dear Colleagues, all interested people (especially PhD and Post-doc students) are kindly invited to attend the following Short Course [details are given below]: "COPULAS FOR HYDROLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES" *** PLEASE CIRCULATE THIS MAIL TO ALL INTERESTED PEOPLE: *** the DEADLINE is getting closer and closer. THANKS. _______________________________________________________________ Short Course "COPULAS FOR HYDROLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES" @ "Centro Studi Alpino" of the University of Tuscia (Italy) Pieve Tesino (Italy), July 24-30, 2016 The Instructors are top scientists in the fields of Copulas and Environmental Applications. The international event is organized by the INTERNATIONAL COMMISSION ON STATISTICAL HYDROLOGY. For all participants, attendance certificates/credits will be provided. *** SCOPE *** The statistical modeling of natural events frequently involves the modeling of the joint distribution of several random phenomena. Copulas are mathematical objects that are particularly suitable for modeling the multivariate dependence between several continuous random variables, independently of their marginal distributions. This explains why they are more and more often used in hydrology and environmental sciences. With the development of powerful statistical software (such as the R statistical system), a multivariate analysis based on copulas appears increasingly feasible. This one-week short course will focus on the theory and statistical practice of copulas with applications to hydrological problems and related environmental issues. It will also contain an introduction to multivariate extreme-value theory from a copula perspective. Theoretical concepts will be illustrated through the analysis of real-world datasets using the R statistical system. *** VENUE *** "Centro Studi Alpino" of the University of Tuscia (Italy) Pieve Tesino (Italy), July 24-30, 2016 *** WEB SITE *** http://www.stahy.org/Events/2016CopulaShortCourse/tabid/120/Default.aspx ____________________________________________________ Gianfausto SALVADORI ____________________________________________________ Università del Salento Dipartimento di Matematica e Fisica "E.

Annuncio Seminari - M. Gubinelli; M. Coghi.
by Marta Leocata 29 Feb '16

29 Feb '16

Cari tutti, Mercoledì 3 febbraio 2016, alle ore 11:30 presso l'aula Seminari del Dipartimento di Matematica dell'Università di Pisa, il professor Massimiliano Gubinelli (Institute of Applied Mathematics, University of Bonn) terrà un seminario dal titolo: "Weak universality of the stationary KPZ equation". Abstract: I will discuss a notion of solution for the KPZ equation which has been introduced by Jara and Gonçalves (2010) and later improved by Jara and myself (2013) and goes under the name of energy solutions. In a recent work in collaboration with Perkowski we have recently obtained a uniqueness results for energy solutions. Using energy solutions is possible to prove weak universality results for KPZ: namely that a wide class of one dimensional microscopic interacting particle models with weak asymmetry and in non-equilibrium stationary states have large scale fluctuations described by the KPZ equation. A seguire, nella stessa aula il dottor Michele Coghi (Scuola Normale Superiore) terrà un seminario dal titolo: "Mean field limit of interacting filaments and vector valued non linear PDEs". Abstract: Families of N interacting curves are considered, with long range, mean-field type, interaction. A family of curves defines a 1-current, concentrated on the curves, analog of the empirical measure of interacting point particles. This current is proved to converge, as N goes to infinity, to a mean field current, solution of a nonlinear, vector valued, partial differential equation. In the limit, each curve interacts with the mean field current and two different curves have an independence property if they are independent at time zero. This set-up is inspired from vortex filaments in turbulent fluids, although for technical reasons we have to restrict to smooth interaction, instead of the singular Biot-Savart kernel. All these results are based on a careful analysis of a nonlinear flow equation for 1-currents, its relation with the vector valued PDE and the continuous dependence on the initial conditions terrà un seminario dal titolo Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare.

Seminario di Silvia Zuffi presso IMATI-Milano
by Antonella Bodini 25 Feb '16

25 Feb '16

Mercoledi' 2 marzo alle ore 11 presso la sala A dell'Area di Ricerca 1 di Milano, via Corti 12, la Dottoressa Silvia Zuffi (ITC-CNR) terra' il seguente seminario: TITOLO: MAP Inference in Probabilistic Graphical Models ABSTRACT: Molti problemi di interesse scientifico ammettono una rappresentazione mediante modelli probabilistici in cui la probabilita’ congiunta delle variabili aleatorie puo’ essere rappresentata mediante un modello grafico. Tali rappresentazioni sono vantaggiose sia in fase di apprendimento del modello che in fase di inferenza delle variabili date le osservazioni. Metodi di computazione distribuita come l’algoritmo Belief Propagation sono efficacemente applicati in modelli a variabili discrete o che ammettono una discretizzazione dello spazio delle variabili. In caso di problemi ad alta dimensionalita’ e/o con variabili continue, dove una discretizzazione dello spazio non e’ computazionalmente affrontabile, un approccio comune e’ ricorrere a metodi non parametrici, ed eseguire una stima della soluzione a posteriori piu’ probabile. Per problemi ad alta dimensionalita’ tali algoritmi sono dipendenti dall’inizializzazione e possono convergere a singoli massimi locali. Nella presentazione illustrero’ un algoritmo per inferenza della soluzione MAP (maximum-a-posteriori) in modelli grafici probabilistici ad alta dimensionalita’, detto “Diverse Particle Max Product” (DPMP). DPMP a differenza di formulazioni precedenti e’ meno sensibile all’inizializzazione ed in grado di mantenere molteplici ipotesi. (Collaboratori: Jason Pacheco ed Erik Sudderth, Brown University e Michael J. Black, MPI-IS Tuebingen) Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare. Cordiali saluti, Antonella. -- Dott. Antonella Bodini CNR-Istituto di Matematica Applicata e Tecnologie Informatiche Via Bassini 15, 20133 Milano (Italy) *** SI PRENDA NOTA CHE PER LAVORI DI RISTRUTTURAZIONE ATTUALMENTE L'ACCESSO E' DA VIA CORTI 12. *** tel +39 02 23699524 fax +39 02 23699538 http://www.mi.imati.cnr.it/~anto/
