Dato il numero limitato di posti disponibili in aula, tutti gli interessati sono invitati a **prenotarsi** compilando il seguente form entro domenica 10 Dicembre: url: https://goo.gl/vfM9FM Entro lunedì 11 Dicembre verrà inviata conferma dell'effettiva disponibilità del posto all’indirizzo email fornito. Ovviamente “first come, first served”, con possibile piccolo bias in favore di studenti e dottorandi. Buon ponte lungo... Pierpaolo Brutti ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- W H O / Haakon Bakka (https://www.ntnu.edu/employees/haakon.bakka) T I T L E / Introduction to R-INLA for Bayesian Spatial Modelling A B S T R A C T / The course starts with a general overview of the possibilities in INLA, for applied research and for model development. We will proceed to examples of generalised linear models with several random effects. We discuss the cool ideas making INLA fast; why most likelihoods are near-Gaussian in the posterior, how to represent random effects with sparse matrices, and more. The last part of the course is looking at spatial random effects and how they fit into the INLA framework; using the brilliant SPDE approach. In the SPDE approach we approximate the spatial random effect itself, representing it in the entire study area, without needing to know the observation locations. Inference in INLA is so fast that we can run all examples live in class! I am looking forwards to giving the course, and I hope to see you there. S Y L L A B U S / Introduction - What is INLA?

seminari Jara e Gubinelli
by FRANCO FLANDOLI 05 Dec '17

05 Dec '17

Giovedì 7 dicembre, nell'aula Cantimori della Scuola Normale Superiore (Palazzo D'Ancona), si terranno i seguenti seminari: 14:00 Milton Jara (IMPA) Title: Entropy methods in interacting particle systems. 15:00 Massimiliano Gubinelli (Bonn) Title: Weak universality of singular SPDEs. Seguono gli abstract. Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare. Abstract M. Jara: We develop a variational formula to estimate the moment generating function of additive functionals of Markov processes. Combined with a related variational formula for the evolution of the relative entropy of the law of the process with respect to suitable reference measures, this variational formula serves as a substitute for the martingale method pioneered by Kipnis-Varadhan in the case of out-of-equilibrium interacting particle systems. Abstract M. Gubinelli: I will discuss the problem of controlling the large scale limit of weakly non-linear SPDEs in the regime where the non-linearity survives at the macroscopic scale giving rise to singular non-linear SPDEs.
