Seminari SOYER e POLSON al CNR IMATI - Milano - 3 Maggio
by antonio.pievatolo＠cnr.it 02 May '18

02 May '18

Ricordo i seguenti seminari che si svolgeranno presso CNR IMATI, via Alfonso Corti 12, Milano, Aula A Giovedì 3 maggio 2018, ore 15:00 - 16:30 [notare il cambio di aula; gentilmente scrivere a simona(a)mi.imati.cnr.it se si intende partecipare] 1) Refik Soyer, School of Business, George Washington University ore 15:00-15:45 BAYESIAN MODELING OF NON GAUSSIAN MULTIVARIATE TIME SERIES Abstract: Modeling of multivariate non Gaussian time series of correlated observations is considered. In so doing, we focus on time series from multivariate counts and durations. Dependence among series arises as a result of sharing a common dynamic environment. We discuss characteristics of the resulting multivariate time series models and develop Bayesian inference for them using particle filtering and Markov chain Monte Carlo methods. We illustrate application of the proposed approach using conditionally multivariate Poisson and gamma time series. Joint work with Tevfik Aktekin, University of New Hampshire and Nicholas Polson, University of Chicago 2) Nicholas Polson, Booth School of Business, University of Chicago ore 15:45-16:30 DEEP LEARNING: A BAYESIAN PERSPECTIVE Deep learning is a form of machine learning for nonlinear high dimensional pattern matching and prediction. By taking a Bayesian probabilistic perspective, we provide a number of insights into more efficient algorithms for optimisation and hyper-parameter tuning. Traditional high-dimensional data reduction techniques, such as principal component analysis (PCA), partial least squares (PLS), reduced rank regression (RRR), projection pursuit regression (PPR) are all shown to be shallow learners. Their deep learning counterparts exploit multiple deep layers of data reduction which provide predictive performance gains. Stochastic gradient descent (SGD) training optimisation and Dropout (DO) regularization provide estimation and variable selection. Bayesian regularization is central to finding weights and connections in networks to optimize the predictive bias-variance trade-off. To illustrate our methodology, we provide an analysis of international bookings on Airbnb. Finally, we conclude with directions for future research.

seminario Marco Patacca in Bicocca
by fabio bellini 02 May '18

02 May '18

Il giorno venerdì 11 maggio alle ore 14.30 presso la Aula Seminari 4026 del DISMEQ al IV piano dell'edificio U7, il dott. Marco Patacca della Università di Perugia terrà un seminario su "Bitcoin prices and market attention" Abstract In this work we measure market attention by applying several filters on time series for the trading volume or the SVI Google searches index. We analyze relative impact of these measures either on the mean or on the variance of Bitcoin returns by fitting non linear econometric models to historical data from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2017; two non-overlapping subsamples are also considered. Outcomes confirm our conjecture that market attention has an impact on Bitcoin returns. Specifically, trading volume related measures affect both the mean and the conditional variance of Bitcoin returns while internet searches volume mainly affects the conditional variance of returns. Motivated by these evidences we propose a continuous time model for Bitcoin price, we obtain an approximate formula for the likelihood and we fit the model to historical data (joint work with Gianna Figà-Talamanca). Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare. -- Prof. Fabio Bellini Department of Statistics and Quantitative Methods University of Milano-Bicocca Via Bicocca degli Arcimboldi 8, 20126 Milano 0039-2-64483119 http://scholar.google.it/citations?user=P61L8P4AAAAJ&hl=it
