Seminario Yen-Chi Chen a Roma Tor Vergata
by Anna Vidotto 08 Jul '19

08 Jul '19

I would like to announce the following talk that will be held on Tuesday July 16th 2019, at 4:30 PM, in Aula D’Antoni (1101) of the Department of Mathematics, University of Rome Tor Vergata. Speaker: Yen-Chi Chen (University of Washington) Title: Analyzing GPS data using density ranking Abstract: A common approach for analyzing a point cloud is based on estimating the underlying probability density function. However, in complex datasets such as GPS data, the underlying distribution function is singular so the usual density function no longer exist. To analyze this type of data, we introduce a statistical model for GPS data in the form of a mixture model with different dimensions. To derive a meaningful surrogate of the probability density, we propose a quantity called density ranking. Density ranking is a quantity representing the intensity of observations around a given point that can be defined in a singular measure. We then show that one can consistently estimate the density ranking using a kernel density estimator even in a singular distribution such as the GPS data. We apply density ranking to GPS datasets to analyze activity spaces of individuals.

Seminario Christian Keller in Bicocca

03 Jul '19

Lunedi' 8 luglio alle ore 11:00, nell’aula 3014 del Dipartimento di Matematica e Applicazioni dell’Università di Milano-Bicocca, in Via R. Cozzi 55, si terrà il seguente seminario: Speaker: Christian Keller (University of Central Florida) Title: Path-dependent Hamilton-Jacobi equations in infinite dimensions Abstract: We propose notions of minimax and viscosity solutions for a class of fully nonlinear path-dependent PDEs with nonlinear, monotone, and coercive operators on Hilbert space. Our main result is well-posedness (existence, uniqueness, and stability) for minimax solutions. A particular novelty is a suitable combination of minimax and viscosity solution techniques in the proof of the comparison principle. One of the main difficulties, the lack of compactness in infinite-dimensional Hilbert spaces, is circumvented by working with suitable compact subsets of our path space. As an application, our theory makes it possible to employ the dynamic programming approach to study optimal control problems for a fairly general class of (delay) evolution equations in the variational framework. Furthermore, differential games associated to such evolution equations can be investigated following the Krasovskii-Subbotin approach similarly as in finite dimensions. This talk is based on joint work with Erhan Bayraktar.

Seminario Marianna Pensky a Roma Tor Vergata
by Anna Vidotto 02 Jul '19

02 Jul '19

Dear all, I would like to announce the following talk that will be held on Friday *July* *12th* 2019, at *4:30 PM*, in *Aula D’Antoni (1101)* of the Department of Mathematics, University of Rome Tor Vergata. *Speaker:* Marianna Pensky (University of Central Florida) *Title:* *Estimation and Clustering in Popularity Adjusted Stochastic Block Model * *Abstract:* Stochastic networks in general and stochastic block models in particular attracted a lot of attention in the last decade. The talk considers the Popularity Adjusted Block model (PABM) which generalizes the Stochastic Block model and the Degree Corrected Block Model by allowing more flexibility for block probabilities. We argue that the main appeal of the PABM is its less rigid spectral structure which makes the PABM an attractive choice for modeling networks that appear in biological sciences. Based on a joint work with Majid Noroozi and Ramchandra Rimal.

Seminario: Lorenzo Trippa, Adaptive trial design in glioblastoma
by Antonio Pievatolo 28 Jun '19

28 Jun '19

Thursday 4 July 2019 at 14:30 Lorenzo Trippa, Harvard University and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Department of Statistics and Computational Biology CNR IMATI, Via A. Corti, 12, Milano, Aula B *Adaptive trial design in glioblastoma* There have been few treatment advances for patients with glioblastoma (GBM) despite increasing scientific understanding of the disease. While factors such as intrinsic tumor biology and drug delivery are challenges to developing efficacious therapies, it is unclear whether the current clinical trial landscape is optimally evaluating new therapies and biomarkers. We queried ClinicalTrials.gov for interventional clinical trials for patients with GBM initiated between January 2005 and December 2016 and abstracted data regarding phase, status, start and end dates, testing locations, endpoints, experimental interventions, sample size, clinical presentation/indication, and design to better understand the clinical trials landscape. Only approximately 8%–11% of patients with newly diagnosed GBM enroll on clinical trials with a similar estimate for all patients with GBM. Trial duration was similar across phases with median time to completion between 3 and 4 years. While 93% of clinical trials were in phases I–II, 26% of the overall clinical trial patient population was enrolled on phase III studies. We use the results of this meta analysis to discuss pros and cons of trial designs in GBM. This analysis includes platforms and the use of external controls. Platform design allow to add new experimental arms to the clinical study when they become available, while the aim of an external controls is to leverage external data that were not generated from the clinical study. -- Dr Antonio Pievatolo IMATI-CNR http://www.imati.cnr.it/joomla/index.php/people?layout=edit&id=101 ph. +39 02 23699 520

EXTENDED Submission deadline July 31, 2019 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Open Position for a post-doc scientist at Géoazur (https://geoazur.oca.eu/fr/acc-geoazur) in collaboration with Inria (https://www.inria.fr/en/centre/sophia) at Sophia Antipolis (Nice region), France, in the area of Computer Vision, Deep Learning and Remote Sensing applied to curvilinear detection on both optical and SAR satellite images (project abstract below). Both Geoazur and Inria Sophia Antipolis are ideally located in the heart of the French Riviera, inside the multi-cultural silicon valley of Europe (ie. Sophia-Antipolis, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sophia_Antipolis) This position is funded by University Côte d'Azur (UCA, see http://univ-cotedazur.fr/en#.XOforoWTpT4) Duration: 18 months Starting date: between September 1st and December 1st 2019. Salary: gross salary per month 3000 EUR (ie. approximately 2400 EUR net) Please see full announcement https://faultsrgems.oca.eu/images/FAULT/News/Post-doc_offer-AI-ManighettiZe…, or on https://euraxess.ec.europa.eu/jobs/411481 Candidate profile Strong academic backgrounds in Stochastic Modeling, Deep Learning, Computer Vision, Remote Sensing and Parallel Programming with GPUs and/or multicore CPUs. A decent knowledge of Earth and telluric features (especially faults) will be appreciated. To apply, please email a full application to both Isabelle Manighetti (manighetti(a)geoazur.unice.fr) and Josiane Zerubia (josiane.Zerubia(a)inria.fr) indicating “UCA-AI-post-doc” in the e-mail subject. The application should contain: - a motivation letter demonstrating motivation, academic strengths and related experience to this position. - CV including publication list - at least two major publications in pdf - minimum 2 reference letters Project abstract Curvilinear structure networks are widespread in both nature and anthropogenic systems, ranging from angiography, earth and environment sciences, to biology and anthropogenic activities. Recovering the existence and architecture of these curvilinear networks is an essential and fundamental task in all the related domains. At present, there has been an explosion of image data documenting these curvilinear structure networks. Therefore, it is of upmost importance to develop numerical approaches that may assist us efficiently to automatically extract curvilinear networks from image data. In recent years, a bulk of works have been proposed to extract curvilinear networks. However, automated and high-quality curvilinear network extraction is still a challenging task nowadays. This is mainly due to the network shape complexity, low-contrast in images, and high annotation cost for training data. To address the problems aroused by these difficulties, this project intends to develop a novel, minimally-supervised curvilinear network extraction method by combining deep neural networks with active learning, where the deep neural networks are employed to automatically learn hierarchical and data-driven features of curvilinear networks, and the active learning is exploited to achieve high-quality extraction using as few annotations as possible. Furthermore, composite and hierarchical heuristic rules will be designed to constrain the geometry of curvilinear structures and guide the curvilinear graph growing. The proposed approach will be tested and validated on extraction of tectonic fractures and faults from a dense collection of satellite and aerial data and “ground truth” available at the Géoazur laboratory in the framework of the Faults_R_Gems project co-funded by the University Côte d’Azur (UCA) and the French National Research Agency (ANR). Then we intend to apply the new automatic extraction approaches to other scenarios, as road extraction in remote sensing images of the Nice region, and blood vessel extraction in available medical image databases. -- Josiane Zerubia INRIA Sophia-Antipolis Méditerranée BP 93, 2004 Route des Lucioles 06902 Sophia-Antipolis Cedex - France phone: +33 4 92 38 78 65, fax: +33 4 92 38 78 58 email: Josiane.Zerubia(a)inria.fr web: http://www-sop.inria.fr/members/Josiane.Zerubia/index-eng.html

Gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare. I contenuti del corso sono riportati qui di seguito. Research context What happens if the discrete time at which innovations occur for a Markov chain is replaced by a counting process? If the counting process is the Poisson process, one still gets a Markov process. On the contrary, if the counting process is of renewal type, the resulting process is no longer Markovian: It becomes a semi-Markov process. Semi-Markov processes have infinite memory and are naturally related to non-local operators in time such as the so-called Caputo derivative that appears when the expected values of inter-event times diverge. For this reason, there has been a surge of interest on these processes in recent years. Syllabus: 1. From Markov chains to semi-Markov processes: General framework (2 hours) 1.1 From the Poisson process to the fractional Poisson process 1.2 Time change and its consequences 2. Example 1: Continuous-time random walks (CTRWs) and applications (8 hours) 2.1 The diffusion equation and the normal compound Poisson process 2.2 The space-time fractional diffusion equation and CTRWs 2.3 Some applications 3. Example 2: Semi-Markov graph dynamics (6 hours) Pre-requisites The course will be accessible to first year PhD students (Corso di Dottorato in Matematica, Fisica e Applicazioni). In fact, the main pre-requisites are: 1. An introductory course in probability and statistics. 2. Fourier and Laplace transforms. Learning objectives After following this course, the students should be able: 1. To read and understand the recent literature on semi-Markov process 2. To perform calculations on continuous-time random walks and other semi-Markov processes using elementary probabilistic methods Essential references: - Scalas, Enrico (2017) Continuous-time statistics and generalized relaxation equations.
