A PhD position in “Big data techniques for maintenance decision making
under uncertainty” is available at Eindhoven University of Technology.
For more information, see below.
In the framework of the national NWA-ORC project “PrimaVera: Predictive
maintenance for Very effective asset management
<https://www.tue.nl/en/news/news-overview/primavera-predictive-maintenance-f…>”,
there is a PhD position available in the Stochastics Section within the
Department of Mathematics and Computer Science in Eindhoven University of
Technology, in The Netherlands. The PrimaVera consortium, led by Twente
University, consists of several Dutch higher education institutes and
companies.
Just-in-time maintenance requires a very accurate, enhanced physically
based data-driven assessment of the system’s health and its future
evolution guaranteeing the reliability, availability and affordability of
the system through accurate monitoring, prognostics and diagnostics. This
is organized around the following key game changers:
• *Development of a big data health index*. Intelligent systems are
equipped with sensors collecting data real-time. Analyzing the collected
data can guarantee the reliability, availability and affordability of the
system through accurate monitoring, prognostics and diagnostics. However,
when dealing with especially large and complex systems, a key challenge for
engineers is how to assess the present condition. By measuring the dynamics
of the asset/network, modelling the dynamic behavior and by combining the
real-time information, we aim to assess the present condition in the form
of a health index and predict the remaining useful life (based on an
assumed usage profile) using big data analytic techniques stemming from
machine learning and artificial intelligence.
• *Causal discovery of failures and root cause analysis.* A key step
in failure prevention is to understand why systems fail. Data-driven
techniques are good at finding correlations between failure modes, but
finding causal relations is challenging. Combinations with physical models
and domain knowledge will create crucial actionable insight and condition
assessment. These associations will be incorporated in a dynamic estimation
and inference paradigm framework for extracting causal graph dynamics,
which can be efficiently queried to find the root causes of specific
failures.
• *Model-enhanced big data techniques for decision making under
uncertainty*. To cope with the complex reality, we need hybrid approaches
leveraging the advantages of statistical methods (guaranteed performance
and uncertainty bounds), data mining approaches (superior in situations
where rules are not yet known), and physics of failure models (causality).
We propose to combine big data analytic techniques stemming from machine
learning and artificial intelligence with the more classical
decision-making approaches (stochastic dynamic programming, Markov decision
models). This combination goes in two directions: (i) on the one hand, we
propose to use big data analytics to automatically learn the health index
model and other relevant failure models with the objective of optimally
fitting the decision objective instead of the classical data fitting
objective. (ii) On the other hand, we propose to use decision-making
approaches to improve the data analytic techniques, e.g., by incorporating
an exploration vs exploitation approach in the maintenance decision making
to cope with the uncertainty in the information.
*Job description*
The project is methodologically oriented. It is on the interface of
statistical operations research and machine learning, and it is strongly
inspired by industrial challenges. The PhD project will be conducted in an
international team and in close collaboration with academic and industrial
partners of PrimaVera. The main goal of the PhD project is to develop
mathematical tools/models/algorithms for (some of) the above-mentioned key
game changers, and thus get a deeper insight. The research will be
concluded with a PhD thesis. A small teaching load is part of the job.
*Job requirements *Preference will be given to candidates in any branch of
applied mathematics and to candidates from a different background (e.g.
engineering) but with strong mathematical foundation. Research experience
will be highly valued. Strong knowledge of applied probability, statistics
and operations research is highly desirable.
The successful applicant will hold a Master’s degree in Mathematics,
Applied Mathematics, Computer Science, Engineering Sciences or related
fields. All applications should include a cover letter, curriculum vitae,
and transcripts. Proficiency in English is also required.
*Team*
The PhD project will be carried out at the stochastics section within the
department of Mathematics and Computer Science (M&CS), TU/e. M&CS has a
vibrant international environment, with almost 50% of the scientific staff
being non-Dutch nationals and more than 100 PhD candidates. It has
extensive experience in helping new (foreign) employees settle in. The
research team consists of the candidate, Dr. Alessandro Di Bucchianico (
a.d.bucchianico(a)tue.nl) and Dr. Stella Kapodistria (s.kapodistria(a)tue.nl).

PROGRAMMA
Prof. Pierre Picco (CNRS Marseille)
Title: One-dimentional Ising model with long range interactions.
A review of results
Abstract:
Introductory lecture
In the first talk I will make an quick historical survey of the rigorous results on the one-dimensional Ising model with long-range interactions.
A first part will be dedicated to uniqueness of the Gibbs states (Ruelle (1968); Dobrushin (1968); Bricmont, Lebowitz & Pfister (1986))
and the regularity of the free energy when the decay of the potential is fast enough (Dobrushin (1973) Cassandro & Olivieri (1981)
and its extensions in particular Capocaccia, Campanino & Olivieri (1983).
A second part will be dedicated to the existence of phase transition starting from the Kac-Thompson conjecture (1968)
the Dyson results (1969), the Frohlich \& Spencer result (1982), the Imbrie result (1982) the Aizenmann, Chayes, Chayes & Newman
result on the Thouless effect (1988), Imbrie & Newman result on the Berezinsky, Kosterlitz & Thouless transition (1988).
A third part will be dedicated to present results in the phase transition regime
that started with Frohlich & Spencer (1981), Cassandro, Ferrari, Merola & Presutti (2001) and its extensions in particular
by Cassandro, Merola, Picco & Rosikov (2014) on the definition of an interface and its fluctuations,
and on a Minlos & Sinai theorem on the phase separation problem by Cassandro, Merola & Picco (2017).
Seminar
In the second talk I will review heuristic arguments that were invoked to conjecture the existence of a phase transition at low temperature in particular the Landau argument.
I will present toy models where the fluctuation of interfaces and localisation of the droplet in the Minlos & Sinai theory will be explained. I will give an algorithmic
definition of one-dimensional contours of Cassandro, Ferrari, Merola & Presutti.
Prof. Rui Pires da Silva Castro (Eindhoven University of Technology)
Title: Testing for the presence of communities in inhomogeneous random graphs
Abstract: Many complex systems can be viewed as a network/graph consisting of vertices (e.g., individuals) connected by edges (e.g., a friendship relation). Often one believes there is some sort of community structure, where some vertices are naturally grouped together (e.g., more densely connected between themselves than to the rest of the network). Much of the community detection literature is concentrated around methods that extract communities from a given network. Our goal in this work is different, and we attempt to understand how difficult is it to determine if a network has real communities. Furthermore, we are primarily interested in the case of small or very small communities, for which many existing results and methods are not applicable.
We cast this problem as a binary hypothesis test, where the null model corresponds to a graph without community structure, and the alternative model almost the same, but it also includes a planted community - that is, a small subset of the vertices has higher connection probability than under the null. The main question is to determine the minimal size and “strength” of the planted community that will allow detection. The seminal work of Arias-Castro and Verzelen tackled this problem when the null model is a homogeneous random graph. In our work, however, we consider the case where the null model is inhomogeneous, as this is somewhat closer to realistic scenarios. In particular, we present a scan test and provide conditions under which it is able to detect the presence of a small community. These results are valid for a wide variety of parameter choices. Furthermore, we show that for some parameters choices the scan test is optimal, and no other test can perform better (e.g, detect smaller or weaker planted communities). Finally, we extend this scan test to adapt to many parameters of the model when the null is a rank-1 generalized random graph.
In the first part of the talk I will describe the above formulation and ensuing results, with illustrative examples and briefly touching upon the analytical methodology. In addition, I will discuss the related problem of characterizing cliques in rank-1 random graphs, which provides some insights on the role of inhomogeneity. The second part of the talk will go deeper into more technical aspects and ensuing insights. This presentation is based on joint work with Kay Bogerd and Remco van der Hofstad (https://arxiv.org/abs/1805.01688 and ongoing work).

18^th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE
CREDIT 2019
*/Assessing and Managing Climate Change Risk: /*
*/Opportunities for Financial Institutions/*
**
Venice, Italy
26 –27 September 2019
*GRETA Associati *(Venice, Italy), *European DataWarehouse* (Frankfurt
am Main, Germany), *Intesa Sanpaolo *(Milan, Italy) and *S&P Global
Market Intelligence* (London, UK) are co-sponsors of a Conference to be
held in Venice on September 26-27, 2019. The objective of the Conference
is to bring together academics, practitioners and Ph.D. students working
in the area of risk management. The conference will provide an
opportunity for participants engaged in research at the forefront of
this area to discuss both the causes and implications of recent
financial and atmospheric events and may, in turn, suggest fruitful
directions for future research. The Conference, organised under the
auspices of the *Department of Economics of the University Ca’ Foscari
of Venice*, *ABI - Italian Banking Association*, *AIAF - Associazione
Italiana per l'Analisi Finanziaria* (Milan, Italy)**and the *Joint
Research Center, European Commission *(Ispra, Italy), is the
*eighteenth* of a series dedicated to various aspects of credit risk.
//The adoption of the Paris Agreement on climate change and the UN 2030
Agenda for Sustainable Development marks a historical international
commitment to the objective of a more sustainable economy and society.
How to mobilise the necessary financing for green and sustainable
investments is thus a primary need. //
//Meanwhile, Regulators are discussing about a green-supporting or a
brown-penalising factor since they want to make sure financial
institutions are prepared. It is to find the way to support sustainable
investments but it is primarily a discussion about credit risk.//
//The banking and insurance industries and more in general the financial
sector has to develop new asset management strategies and to adjust
their credit allocation practices to cope with these new challenges and
take advantage of the new opportunities. All t////hese changes call for
a substantial amount of research to improve the knowledge of the
mechanisms at play and to design adapted policy tools.////
