OWABI - Paul Bürkner - January 30
by Massimiliano Tamborrino 14 Jan '25

14 Jan '25

Dear all, the next One World Approximate Bayesian Inference (OWABI) Seminar<https://warwick.ac.uk/fac/sci/statistics/news/upcoming-seminars/abcworldsem…> is quickly approaching, being scheduled on Thursday, the 30th January at 11am UK time. Our next speaker is Paul Bürkner<https://paulbuerkner.com/> (TU Dortmund University), who will talk about "Amortized Mixture and Multilevel Models" with an abstract reported below. Abstract: Probabilistic mixture and multilevel models are central building blocks in Bayesian data analysis. However, they remain challenging to estimate and evaluate, especially when the involved likelihoods or priors are analytically intractable. Recent developments in generative deep learning and simulation-based inference have shown promising results in scaling up Bayesian inference through amortization. Against this background, we have developed specialized neural inference frameworks for estimating Bayesian mixture and multilevel models. The involved neural architectures are closely mirroring the probabilistic symmetries and conditional (in-)dependencies assumed by these models. This not only speeds up neural network training, but also enables amortized inference for new datasets of varying number of groups and sample sizes. Keywords: Amortized Bayesian Inference; Neural Posterior Estimation; Probabilistic Factorization This and all talks are hosted on the OWABI Ms Teams Channel, which is available here https://teams.microsoft.com/l/team/19%3AdhZ_4e_XLNJzCXPAMzTvT6BZ5KShEETkd_w…. The MS Teams link to join Paul Bürkner's talk is https://teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-join/19%3adhZ_4e_XLNJzCXPAMzTvT6BZ5KSh… Meeting ID: 361 477 079 820 Passcode: C49gr9Gx Lastly, if you missed Jeremias Knoblauch's seminar, you could now watch the recorded talk on the OWABI webpage<http://www.warwick.ac.uk/oneworldabc>.

SPASS Seminar: Rangel Baldasso
by Gianmarco Bet 13 Jan '25

13 Jan '25

Dear Colleagues, We would like to invite you to the following SPASS seminar, jointly organized by UniPi, SNS, UniFi and UniSi: *The random Markov property for random walks in random environments* by *Rangel Baldasso* (*PUC-Rio*) The seminar will take place on TUE, 21.01.2025 at *14:00 CET* in Aula Tricerri, Dipartimento di Matematica e Informatica "Ulisse Dini", Università degli Studi di Firenze, and streamed online at this link <https://meet.google.com/gji-phwo-vbg>. The organizers, A. Agazzi, G. Bet, A. Caraceni, F. Grotto, G. Zanco https://sites.google.com/unipi.it/spass -------------------------------------------- *Abstract: We consider random walks evolving in dynamic random environments and propose a criterion which, if satisfied, allows to decompose the random walk trajectory into i.i.d. increments, and ultimately to prove limit theorems. This criterion, dubbed the random Markov property, involves the construction of a random field built from the environment that has to satisfy a certain Markovian-like property along with some mixing estimates. We apply this criterion to correlated environments such as Boolean percolation and renewal chains featuring polynomial decay of correlations. Based on a joint work with Julien Allasia, Oriane Blondel, and Augusto Teixeira.*

Dear all, a kind reminder that the deadline for the abstract submission for contributed talks or poster at BioInference2025 (28th -30th May in Bardonecchia, a town in the Alps near Turin) is quickly approaching. If you are interested on mathematical modelling and statistical methods for (widely defined/interpreted) biological problems, then please consider submitting an abstract here https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdxF-b-Q_TY0o0F8T_fRmgY6_SAC72w71O… by the 31st January 2025. More info are available on the website https://bioinference.github.io/2025/ and below. Best, Massimiliano on the behalf of the BioInference2025 organising committee ------ BioInference aims to bring together researchers from across statistics and mathematical modelling who work with biological systems, to foster discussions and prompt collaborations between the two communities across all career stages. After the previous three editions hosted in the UK, the BioInference 2025 conference (https://bioinference.github.io/2025/) is now going abroad to Italy. This year’s BioInference conference will take place in Bardonecchia, a town in the Alps near Turin on the 28-30 May 2025. Differently from previous editions, this year's conference is going to be a residential 3-days event that will include more talks and networking opportunities compared to previous years. A hike activity will take place on the second day! The three-day conference will combine contributed talks and poster sessions. We now invite abstracts for oral/poster presentations on work on mathematical modelling and/or statistical methods (either development or application) for (widely defined/interpreted) biological problems. All presentations will be in-person with no-parallel sessions. The abstract can be submitted here https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdxF-b-Q_TY0o0F8T_fRmgY6_SAC72w71O… by the 31st January 2025.

PhD positions in Bielefeld
by Ferrari, Giorgio 09 Jan '25

09 Jan '25

Dear Colleagues, we have the great pleasure to share information on new doctoral positions within the research training group (RTG) „Coping with Uncertainty in Dynamic Economies“. This research training group is sponsored by the German Research Foundation (DFG) for up to 9 years, with approximately one million euro per year. We have successfully hired a first cohort of students in 2023, and we are now looking forward to the second cohort. The positions are fully funded, at competitive levels (approx 43.000 Euro gross per year). The RTG is an initiative of ten principal investigators from the Center for Mathematical Economics and the Data Science Research Group at Bielefeld University. Next to the well established core program of our doctoral school BiGSEM (www.bigsem.de <http://www.bigsem.de/>), students will thus work in an excellent research environment on topics involving uncertainty in its various aspects and their consequences for dynamic economies. The research training group holds strong ties with top international researchers who will give specialized block courses and summer schools. As a highlight of our program, the Mercator fellow Jean-Marc Tallon from the Paris School of Economics is part of our research training group. He will serve as a contact person for possible research stays in Paris. Please share the exciting news with your talented master students and encourage them to apply! More information can be found at the inomics website (https://inomics.com/program/9-phd-positions-in-the-research-training-group-…) and at Bielefeld’s official announcement (https://uni-bielefeld.hr4you.org/job/view/3881/research-positions-in-the-re…).
