20 Jun '18

SEMINARIO DI MATEMATICA Venerdì 22 giugno 2018 ore 11:00 *Scuola Normale Superiore* Pisa Aula Mancini *Enrico Priola* *(Università di Torino)* terrà un seminario dal titolo: *“**Poisson stochastic process and basic parabolic estimates**”* *Abstract:* We show how knowing Schauder or Sobolev-space estimates for the one-dimensional heat equation allows one to derive their multidimensional analogs for equations with coefficients depending only on time variable with the same constants as in the case of the one-dimensional heat equation. The method is quite general and is based on using the Poisson stochastic process. It also applies to other types of estimates and to equations involving non-local operators. It looks like no other methods are available at this time and it is a challenging problem to find an analytic approach to prove such results. In the talk I will concentrate on basic Sobolev estimates for the heat equation trying to explain the method. This is a joint work with N. V. Krylov. Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare.

AVVISO DI SEMINARIO Dipartimento di Matematica Università di Roma Tor Vergata Giovedì 14 Giugno Ore 12 Aula Dal Passo Speaker: Victor Panaretos (EPFL) DOUBLY SPECTRAL ANALYSIS OF FUNCTIONAL TIME SERIES AND DNA MOLECULAR DYNAMICS The Karhunen-Loève (KL) expansion has evolved into the workhorse of functional data analysis: the Fourier representation it affords on the one hand serves as a basis for motivating methodology by analogy to multivariate statistics; and, on the other hand, appears as the natural means of regularization in problems such as regression, testing and prediction, which are ill-posed in the functional case. With the aim of obtaining a similarly canonical representation of dependent functional data, we develop a doubly spectral analysis of a stationary functional stochastic process, decomposing it into an integral of uncorrelated functional frequency components (Cramér representation), each of which is in turn expanded into a KL series. This Cramér-Karhunen-Loève representation separates temporal from intrinsic curve variation, and it is seen to yield a harmonic principal component analysis when truncated: a finite dimensional proxy of the time series that optimally captures both within and between curve variation. Empirical versions are introduced, and a rigorous analysis of their large-sample behaviour is provided under Brillinger mixing conditions. Our work is motivated by and applied to the study of the molecular dynamics of short strands of DNA; specifically, we consider the problem of determining whether the dynamics of such strands in solution are significantly affected by small perturbations of their base-pair composition, based on molecular dynamics simulations. (Based on joint work with Shahin Tavakoli, now at Warwick).

Seminario di Stefano Favaro, CNR IMATI, Milano

07 Jun '18

Il prof Stefano Favaro terrà un seminario al CNR-IMATI, sede di Milano, mercoledì 13/6/2018 alle 14:30, via Alfonso Corti 12, aula A. Chi intendesse partecipare è pregato di comunicarlo a simona.milani(a)mi.imati.cnr.it per ragioni organizzative. Cordialmente A. Pievatolo %%%%%%%%% titolo e abstract %%%%%%%%%%% A Bayesian approach to disclosure risk assessment Protection against disclosure is a legal and ethical obligation for statistical agencies releasing microdata files for public use. Given a cross classification of sample records by categorical key variables, any decision about release is supported by measures of disclosure risk, the most common being the number $\tau_{1}$ of sample uniques cells that are also population uniques. In this paper we depart from the dominant literature that infers $\tau_{1}$ by modeling association among key variables, and we consider modeling directly sample records. We develop a novel nonparametric Bayesian approach under the minimal assumption of a generalized Dirichlet prior for the random partition induced by the cross-classified sample records. This allows to derive an explicit, and simple, expression for the posterior distribution of $\tau_{1}$, as well as a large sample Binomial approximation of it. Such a closed-form results, combined with an estimator for prior parameters designed in such a way to recognizes a primary role of small cells, make inference on $\tau_{1}$ exact, of easy implementation, computationally efficient and scalable to massive datasets. The proposed approach is tested on benchmark data from the U.S. 2000 census for the state of California, showing the same good performance of recent semiparametric Bayesian models for key variables. -- Dr Antonio Pievatolo IMATI-CNR http://www.imati.cnr.it/joomla/index.php/people?layout=edit&id=101
