IEEE MetroLivEnv 2022 - Special Session PROBABILITY AND MATHEMATICAL STATISTICS FOR LIVING ENVIRONMENT AND METROLOGY Esterni
by Antonella Iuliano 02 Mar '22

02 Mar '22

Dear Colleagues, we would like to draw your attention to the upcoming 2022 IEEE INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON METROLOGY FOR LIVING ENVIRONMENT that will be held at the University of Calabria, Cosenza (Italy), 25 - 27 May, 2022. The following Special Session is open to receive your submissions. PROBABILITY AND MATHEMATICAL STATISTICS FOR LIVING ENVIRONMENT AND METROLOGY Measurement uncertainty is an important aspect of measurement that affects quality, costs, decisions, and risks. Therefore, it is mandatory to assess the quality of the results and to establish the accuracy requirements. Probability theory and Statistics provide powerful tools for the development and analysis of new mathematical models of phenomena with random characteristics and for drawing conclusions and making inferences. Nowadays probabilistic models are the basis of a large number of applications in modeling different fields of human activity. In particular, these methods use the language of probability to model different phenomena for the evaluation and forecast of measurements in various areas of applied mathematics. Therefore, the aim of this session is to delineate the fundamentals of probability and mathematical statistics impressing a comprehensive understanding of the theory and mechanics of the calculations through several applications in environmental and metrology fields to improve the quality of life.

Seminari Prisma 7 marzo
by Domenico Marinucci 28 Feb '22

28 Feb '22

Cari colleghi vi ricordo che lunedì prossimo 7 marzo alle ore 16 avranno luogo i prossimi due seminari nella serie Prisma; gli speaker sono Pietro Caputo e Vittoria Silvestri. I seminari avranno luogo come sempre sulla piattaforma teams; i dettagli per il collegamento e la lista completa dei seminari si possono trovare qui: http://www.umi-prisma.polito.it/webinars.html Qui sotto titoli ed abstract, grazie per l'attenzione, Domenico Marinucci ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Speaker: Pietro Caputo, Roma III Title: Random walks on directed random networks Abstract: Exploration via random walks is often very useful for the analysis of directed networks. For instance, the walk's stationary distribution plays a prominent role in ranking systems and search algorithms. In this lecture, we present some recent progress in the analysis of random walks for a class of sparse directed networks generated by the so-called configuration model. We discuss various properties of the stationary distribution, including bulk behaviour and extremal values. We also consider the mixing time, that is the time needed to reach stationarity, and show that the walk typically displays a cutoff behaviour. Moreover, we discuss the asymptotic behaviour of the cover time, that is the expected time it takes the random walk to cover the whole network. Finally, we analyse the convergence to stationarity when the walk experiences regeneration events such as teleportation, as in the PageRank algorithm, or resampling of the underlying graph, as in a dynamically evolving network. ------------------------------------------------------------ Speaker: Vittoria Silvestri, Sapienza Title: Internal DLA on cylinder graphs: typical profiles and mixing. Abstract: Internal DLA is a mathematical model for the growth of a random cluster of particles according to the harmonic measure on the cluster boundary, seen from an internal point. Performing IDLA on cylinder graphs (i.e. graphs of the form GxZ) gives a Markov chain on the infinite space of particle configurations. We show that this chain is positive recurrent, and give a description of typical (i.e. stationary) configurations. We then analyse the mixing time of this chain. -- @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ Domenico Marinucci Dipartimento di Matematica Università di Roma Tor Vergata https://www.mat.uniroma2.it/~marinucc/ @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Inoltro ---------- Forwarded message --------- Da: Christian Horacio Olivera <colivera(a)unicamp.br> Date: mer 23 feb 2022 alle ore 15:43 Brazilian School of Probability/São Paulo School of advanced science on singular stochastic partial differential equations and their applications We are very excited to finally announce the EBP 2022/ São Paulo School of advanced science on singular stochastic partial differential equations and their applications. The São Paulo school is divided into two parts and will happen in the weeks of August 2 to August 13, 2022, at Campinas University. In the first week there will be two introductory mini courses by Paulo Ruffino (Campinas) and Weijun Xu (Beijing) (stochastic calculus and rough paths) that lay the foundations for the courses of the second week and are directed towards students and researchers with little to no experience in the field. The courses of the second week are held by Lorenzo Zambotti (Sorbonne) and Martin Hairer (Imperial College London). Here, newly developed theories and their latest developments in the field of singular SPDEs and related areas will be taught. The program will be complemented with several plenary talks, invited talks, a poster session and a visit to the LNLS laboratories, where the only particle accelerator of Latin America is located. The school will give full financial support for around 100 students and young researchers (50 from Brazil and 50 from abroad). To ask for financial support the registration deadline is April 15, 2022. More information under www.ime.unicamp.br/spas2022. The EBP 20022 will coincide with the second week of the São Paulo School. As in previous years, the EBP will consist of two mini courses, plenary talks, contributed talks and poster sessions, all presented in a relaxed atmosphere. This will be our first edition at IMECC-UNICAMP, which is home to one of Brazil's top ranked Mathematics departments. More information under www.ime.unicamp.br/bsp2022. To guarantee a safe event a big auditorium has been reserved that allows social distancing between participants. All required measures to prevent the spread of Covid 19 will be taken. We would be grateful if you could advertise these events among your colleagues. Best regards Christian Olivera

seminario: "Estimating the directing information and testing for causality", Maria Skoularidou, 1 Marzo
by Umberto Picchini 27 Feb '22

27 Feb '22

Caro gruppo Random, di sotto annuncio un seminario per il 1 Marzo. Saluti. *********************************************** You are welcome to the next Statistics seminar at Dept of Mathematical Sciences at Chalmers and Göteborg University. We are very glad to have, on Tuesday March 1, Maria Skoularidou <https://www.mrc-bsu.cam.ac.uk/people/in-alphabetical-order/n-to-s/maria-sko…> who will talk of: ///"Estimating the directing information and testing for causality" / * * *About the speaker: *Maria Skoularidou <https://www.mrc-bsu.cam.ac.uk/people/in-alphabetical-order/n-to-s/maria-sko…> is a PhD student at Cambridge University, UK. Her thesis is focused on probabilistic machine learning and, more precisely, towards using generative modelling in healthcare. Her fields of interest lie in the underpinnings, theory and methodology of machine intelligence, Bayesian inference, theoretical computer science and information theory. She is founder and chair of {Dis}Ability in AI <https://elesa.github.io/ability_in_AI/> and founder and secretary of Women in Data Science and Statistics (RSS special interest group). // //* * *Abstract: *The problem of estimating the directed information rate between two discrete processes { X n } and {Yn } via the plug-in (or maximum-likelihood) estimator is considered. When the joint process {(Xn,Yn)} is a Markov chain of a given memory length, the plug-in estimator is shown to be asymptotically Gaussian and to converge at the optimal rate O(1/√n) under appropriate conditions; this is the first estimator that has been shown to achieve this rate. An important connection is drawn between the problem of estimating the directed information rate and that of performing a hypothesis test for the presence of causal influence between the two processes. Under fairly general conditions, the null hypothesis, which corresponds to the absence of causal influence, is equivalent to the requirement that the directed information rate be equal to zero. In that case, a finer result is established, showing that the plug-in converges at the faster rate O (1/ n) and that it is asymptotically χ 2 -distributed. This is proved by showing that this estimator is equal to (a scalar multiple of) the classical likelihood ratio statistic for the above hypothesis test. Finally, it is noted that these results facilitate the design of an actual likelihood ratio test for the presence or absence of causal influence.* * *Feel free to spread this announcement in your network.* * * *Where*:https://chalmers.zoom.us/j/61015800942 Password: 697666 ** **** *When*: Tuesday 1 March at 14.15-15.15*(Swedish time)*. ** -- _________________________________________________________ Umberto Picchini, Associate Professor, PhD, Docent https://umbertopicchini.github.io/ , twitter: @uPicchini
