Hacking day on Graphical Models
by Claudio Agostinelli 31 Dec '18

31 Dec '18

Hacking Day at Mathematics for daTa scieNce is a series of crash courses (4-8hours) in special topics. The second Hacking Day is Monday and Tuesday, 2019/01/28-29 on: **Graphical Models** Eva Riccomagno (unige) Federico Carli (unige) The course is an introduction to statistical models supported on finite graphs. The idea of modelling a complex system with a graph is present in various disciplines, from information theory to systems engineering to machine learning. In statistics a graphical model specifies conditional independence statements between random vectors, thus providing a statistical model for the joint distribution of observed variables. The graph has the advantage of providing a visual representation and is a powerful calculation tool. The course presents the basics of probabilistic graphical models, including their algebraic representations and basic software. Further information are available at: http://datascience.maths.unitn.it/events/gm2019/index.html Participation is free. Please send an email to Prof. Claudio Agostinelli (claudio.agostinelli(a)unint.it) by January 15, 2019 to confirm your attendance. ------------------------------------------------------------- Claudio Agostinelli Dipartimento di Matematica Universita' di Trento email: claudio.agostinelli(a)unitn.it ------------------------------------------------------------ Per favore non mandatemi documenti in Microsoft Office/Apple iWork.

Seminario di Davide Bignamini a Pavia
by Carbone Raffaella 13 Dec '18

13 Dec '18

Cari colleghi, vi annuncio che giovedì 20 dicembre, alle ore 12, nell'aula Beltrami del Dipartimento di Matematica dell'Universita' di Pavia, il Dott. Davide Bignamini (Università di Parma) terrà un seminario dal titolo Enclosures and structure of invariant states for quantum channels di cui segue il sunto. Distinti saluti, Raffaella Carbone Abstract: In my talk I will present some probability properties for quantum channels, and I will show some similarities with the theory of classical Markov chains. At first I will introduce the concepts of reducibility, invariant state and enclosure. After that I will discuss the structure of invariant states related to the possible decompositions in enclosures of the positive recurrent subspace. Finally I will reconsider this result for a particular case of homogeneous open quantum random walks. This talk is based on the contents of my Master's thesis (Tesi di Laurea Magistrale).

STATISTICS SEMINARS @ COLLEGIO CARLO ALBERTO Mercoledì 19 Dicembre 2018, alle ore 11:00, presso il nuovo edificio del Collegio Carlo Alberto, in Piazza Arbarello 8, Torino, si terrà il seguente seminario: ------------------------------------------------ Matteo SESIA (Stanford University) NEW TOOLS FOR REPRODUCIBLE VARIABLE SELECTION WITH KNOCKOFFS Model-X knockoffs [1] is a new statistical framework that allows the scientist to investigate the relationship between a response of interest and hundreds or thousands of explanatory variables. In particular, model-X knockoffs can be used to identify a subset of important variables from a larger pool that could potentially explain a phenomenon under study while rigorously controlling the false discovery rate [2] in very complex statistical models. In this talk we will briefly review the fundamentals of knockoffs and their use in two different scenarios. First, we will discuss about how knockoffs can be used to exploit prior knowledge of genetic variation to obtain a powerful tool for genome-wide association studies [3]. Then, we will see how the information contained in large unsupervised datasets can be harnessed to perform effectively "model-free" variable selection [4]. [1] E. J. Candès, Y. Fan, L. Janson, and J.

avviso seminario Mauro Mariani
by Franco Flandoli 12 Dec '18

12 Dec '18

Il giorno lunedì 17 dicembre, alle ore 10:30, in aula Aula Marie Curie Il professor Mauro Mariani (High School of Economics, Moscow) terrà un seminario dal titolo: The low temperature limit of Dirichlet energies Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare. Franco Flandoli Abstract: Let M be a Riemannian manifold equipped with a reference measure m with density \exp(- V/T) with respect to the volume measure, where V represents a potential and the positive constant T represents the temperature. The Dirichlet energy with reference measure m is a classical functional defined on the space of probability measures on M. I will discuss the variational convergence of such a functional in the limit T \to 0. In particular, if V is not convex, a non-trivial expansion by Gamma-convergence holds under generic hypotheses on V. The results are based on a joint work with G.DiGesu (TU Wien).

Seminario Stefano Bonaccorsi @ LUISS
by Giovanni Alessandro Zanco 11 Dec '18

11 Dec '18

Dear all, we inform that Professor Stefano Bonaccorsi (Università di Trento) will give a seminar at LUISS University on Tuesday, December the 18th at 10:00 am in Room 205b, Viale Romania 32 with the following title and abstract Title: Some notes on Malliavin calculus, surface integrals and integration by parts formulae in infinite dimensional spaces Abstract: We introduce a basic construction of the Malliavin calculus which unifies some different perspectives (e.g., Bogachev, Da Prato, Lunardi, Nualart). Then we introduce, for suitable functionals of the Brownian motion, the problem of constructing a surface measure (i.e., the restriction of the reference measure on the infinite dimensional Wiener space) on the level sets defined by them. Finally, we give some interpretation of such results in terms of other stochastic processes.
