SPASS Seminar: Josué Knorst
by Francesco Grotto 30 Jan '25

30 Jan '25

Dear Colleagues, We would like to invite you to the following SPASS seminar, jointly organized by UniPi, SNS, UniFi and UniSi: *Quantitative particle approximation of nonlinear stochastic Fokker-Planck equations with singular kernel* by Josué Knorst (ENSTA-Paris, UNICAMP) The seminar will take place TUE, 4.2.2025 at 14:00 CET in Aula Magna, Dipartimento di Matematica, UNIPI and streamed online at the link below. The organizers, G. Bet, A. Caraceni, F. Grotto, G. Zanco https://sites.google.com/unipi.it/spass *---------------------------------------------------------* *Abstract: * We derive quantitative estimates for stochastic systems of particles moderately interacting via singular kernels and perturbed by both idiosyncratic and environmental noises. The moderate interaction regime is a scale introduced by Oelschläger in the 80s, and it lies between the mean field and the nearest neighbor interaction regimes. We prove that the (mollified) empirical process converges to the solution of the nonlinear stochastic Fokker-Planck equation. The proof is based on Itô’s formula for the norm of a H^1_q-valued process, commutator estimates, and some estimations for the regularization of the empirical measure. Joint work with C. Olivera and A. de Souza.

Stefano Favaro at Tor Vergata 05.02
by Michele Salvi 29 Jan '25

29 Jan '25

Dear all, On Wednesday, February 5th, at 14h00 in Aula Dal Passo of Tor Vergata Math Department, RoMaDS <https://www.mat.uniroma2.it/~rds/events.php> will host Stefano Favaro (Università di Torino) with the seminar “A smoothed-Bayesian approach to frequency recovery from sketched data” Abstract: We introduce a novel statistical perspective on a classical problem at the intersection of computer science and information theory: recovering the empirical frequency of a symbol in a large discrete dataset using only a compressed representation, or sketch, obtained via random hashing. Departing from traditional algorithmic approaches, recent works have proposed Bayesian nonparametric (BNP) methods that can provide more informative frequency estimates by leveraging modeling assumptions on the distribution of the sketched data. In this paper, we propose a smoothed-Bayesian method, inspired by existing BNP approaches but designed in a frequentist framework to overcome the computational limitations of the BNP approaches when dealing with large-scale data from realistic distributions, including those with power-law tail behaviors. For sketches obtained with a single hash function, our approach is supported by frequentist guarantees, including unbiasedness and optimality under a squared error loss function within a class of linear estimators. For sketches with multiple hash functions, we introduce an approach based on multi-view learning to construct computationally efficient frequency estimators. We validate our method on synthetic and real data, comparing its performance to that of existing alternatives. Joint work with Mario Beraha (Politecnico di Milano) and Matteo Sesia (University of Southern California) We encourage in-person partecipation.

Seminario PRISMA lun 3 feb 2025
by Francesco Caravenna 28 Jan '25

28 Jan '25

Seminari on-line del gruppo UMI - PRISMA (http://www.umi-prisma.polito.it/) I seminari PRISMA hanno un formato di "colloquium" per creare un'occasione di scambio e discussione con tutta la comunità dei probabilisti e statistici italiani. Ogni giornata comprende due relatori che tengono due seminari di 30 minuti strettamente connessi, per presentare alla comunità una prospettiva sul proprio ambito di ricerca. Da quest'anno le registrazioni dei seminari vengono pubblicate sul canale YouTube dell'UMI: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmySpc-jrtAMq84VH71evyqPc1hl6eEQb Il prossimo appuntamento è per lunedì 3 febbraio 2025. I relatori saranno Giambattista Giacomin (Università di Padova) e Marco Zamparo (Università del Piemonte Orientale) che parleranno di Transizioni di fase in modelli di pinning ed effetto del disordine con il seguente orario: 16:00 Primo seminario 16:30 Pausa e discussione 16:45 Secondo seminario 17:15 Conclusione e discussione Trovate di seguito il riassunto. I seminari verranno trasmessi via Zoom al seguente link: https://uniroma1.zoom.us/j/88679569146 Meeting ID: 886 7956 9146 Vi aspettiamo numerosi! Valentina Cammarota e Francesco Caravenna %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% RELATORI: Giambattista Giacomin (Università di Padova) e Marco Zamparo (Università del Piemonte Orientale) TITOLO: Transizioni di fase in modelli di pinning ed effetto del disordine. RIASSUNTO: Il modello di pinning è un modello elementare della meccanica statistica che presenta una transizione di (de)localizzazione. Questo modello è stato molto considerato nella letteratura fisica e biofisica poiché emerge naturalmente nella modellizzazione di una varietà di fenomeni e perché, in assenza di disordine, è esattamente risolubile. In termini matematici il modello di pinning è una misura di Gibbs con potenziali a un corpo basata su un processo di rinnovo discreto. Nella prima parte del seminario introduciamo il modello e presentiamo lo stato dell’arte sull’effetto del disordine, esponendo anche alcuni progressi recenti e menzionando alcuni problemi aperti. Nella seconda parte discutiamo invece delle varianti del modello di pinning in cui la densità dell’insieme dei punti di rinnovo è imposta al sistema tramite condizionamento o tramite dei potenziali aggiunti al modello: questo tipo di modelli è stato proposto in biofisica per lo studio del DNA circolare. In questo contesto una nuova fase, intermedia tra la fase localizzata e quella delocalizzata, appare, almeno in assenza di disordine. La comparsa di questa nuova fase è una versione di un fenomeno ben noto in probabilità, dove una singola variabile è responsabile delle grandi fluttuazioni della somma di tante sue copie (« big jump phenomenon »). La presenza del disordine ha un effetto molto drastico su questa fase: spieghiamo infatti che la fase intermedia non esiste se introduciamo del disordine, anche debole. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

(PMS)^2 talk - C. DURASTANTI - February 4 at 14:00
by Nicola Turchi 27 Jan '25

27 Jan '25

Dear colleagues, we are happy to announce the following talk *Claudio Durastanti* (Univ. Roma La Sapienza) *Aliasing effects for random fields over the sphere* *Abstract:** This talk explores aliasing effects that arise during the reconstruction from discrete samples of spin spherical random fields defined on the sphere, with a brief discussion of the scalar case. With a fixed sampling method for obtaining field samples, we identify the location and intensity of aliases in the frequency domain for the harmonic coefficients in the Fourier decomposition of the random field and assess the impact of aliasing errors on the angular power spectrum. Finally, we show that band-limited spin random fields can be free from aliasing if a sufficiently large number of samples is taken.* Date and time: Tuesday* February 4, 14:00-15:00 (Rome time zone)* Place: *Aula 3014, Dip.

Seminario di B. Schlein a Torino
by Dario Trevisan 24 Jan '25

24 Jan '25

Salve, Inoltro con piacere questo messaggio di Riccardo Adami circa un seminario di B. Schlein a Torino. Saluti, Dario Trevisan ----- Care amiche, cari amici, vi segnalo l'inizio di un ciclo di seminari che avranno luogo in vari dipartimenti universitari di Torino, centrato sulla matematica della fisica contemporanea, con particolare riferimento alla Meccanica Quantistica. Giovedí 30 si terrá il primo appuntamento che, come i successivi, consterá di due parti: una lezione informale aperta da tenere al mattino ("crash course") e un seminario\colloquium al pomeriggio. Auspichiamo una partecipazione nutrita anche da parte di dottorande, dottorandi e studenti magistrali. Il primo speaker sará Benjamin Schlein, dell'Universitá di Zurigo. Informazioni in calce e locandina in allegato. Preannuncio che il secondo appuntamento sará l'11 settembre 2025 con Roberto Longo. Siamo a disposizione per ulteriori chiarimenti. Con preghiera di diffusione a tutti i potenziali interessati. Un saluto cordiale, Riccardo Dear All, We are pleased to announce the launch of the new lecture series "QuanTO - Quantum Lectures in Torino". This joint initiative is the result of the scientific cooperation among researchers from the Departments of Physics and Mathematics of Politecnico di Torino (DISMA-DISAT) and Università di Torino. The goal of this series is to bring together physicists and mathematicians interested in quantum theories through regular meetings and advanced lectures on current topics by leading experts. We are particularly committed to engaging students and young researchers with these fascinating areas. Therefore, to encourage broader participation, each conference will be preceded by one or more introductory lectures ("crash course") designed to review the ideas and techniques necessary to fully appreciate the advanced seminar. The inaugural event of this series will take place on January 30th, 2025. We are pleased to host Professor Benjamin Schlein from the University of Zürich on this occasion, who will talk about "Bogoliubov Theory for Dilute Bose Gases." The schedule is as follows - please find the event leaflet attached: - Crash course at Politecnico di Torino, Aula 1D, from 10:00 to 12:00. - Seminar at the Department of Mathematics "G. Peano" (UniTo), Aula Magna (2nd floor), from 15:00 to 16:00. Abstract: In this talk, I am going to review recent progress in the mathematical understanding of the low-energy properties of dilute quantum systems. In particular, I am going to present a rigorous version of Bogoliubov theory and I am going to show how it can be used to obtain precise estimates for the ground state energy and the low-energy excitation spectrum and also to approximate the time evolution of Bose gases in the so-called Gross-Pitaevskii regime. The seminar will be followed by a coffee break and informal discussions. No registration is required. Should you have any inquiries, please feel free to contact us at quanto.lectures(a)gmail.com. Further information can be found on the webpage of the series: https://sites.google.com/view/quantolectures. We kindly ask you to circulate this message to any potential participants. Best regards, The Organizing Committee: Riccardo Adami, Laura Andrianopoli, Andrea Cavaglià, Dario Martelli, Marco Meineri, Fabrizio Nieri, S. Ivan Trapasso, Mario Trigiante -- Prof. Dr. Riccardo Adami Professor of Mathematical Analysis DISMA G.L. Lagrange Politecnico di Torino

Statistics Seminar @ MEMOTEF Sapienza - 6 Feb - Stefano Favaro
by Panero,F 23 Jan '25

23 Jan '25

Dear all, On Thursday 6th of February at 12:30pm, the Department of Methods and Models for Economy, Territory and Finance (MEMOTEF) at Sapienza University in Rome will host a seminar by Stefano Favaro, Università degli Studi di Torino e Collegio Carlo Alberto. Title: Quasi-Bayes empirical Bayes: a sequential approach to the Poisson compound decision problem. Abstract: The Poisson compound decision problem is a classical problem in statistics, for which parametric and nonparametric empirical Bayes methodologies are available to estimate Poisson's means in static or batch domains. We study the Poisson compound decision problem in a streaming or online domain, where a timely analysis can enhance decision-making and responsiveness to new information, especially for data arriving at high-velocity. By relying on a quasi-Bayesian sequential (learning) model for the data, often referred to as Newton's algorithm, we obtain sequential Poisson's mean estimates that are of easy evaluation, computationally efficient and with a constant computational cost as data increase, which is desirable for streaming data. Large sample asymptotic properties of the proposed estimates are investigated, also providing frequentist guarantees in terms of a regret analysis. We validate empirically our methodology, both on synthetic and real data, comparing against the most popular alternatives. Joint work with Sandra Fortini (Bocconi University). When: Thursday 06/02/2025, 12:30pm Where: Via del Castro Laurenziano 9, 00161, Rome Meeting room: Aula Di Fresco, 4th Floor (Ala Ammistrazione) You are welcome to attend!

Seminar Victor M. Panaretos @Luiss

22 Jan '25

Dear all, The Department of Economics and Finance at Luiss University in Rome (*https://economiaefinanza.luiss.it <https://economiaefinanza.luiss.it/>*) is pleased to announce the following seminar: *Speaker*: Victor M. Panaretos, École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) *Title*: *Distributional Regression and Autoregression via Mass Transportation* *When*: February 6th, 14:30 *Where*: Viale Romania, 32 00197 Rome *Meeting room*: 405 *Abstract*: We present a framework for performing regression when both covariate and response are probability distributions. Our framework is based on the theory of mass transportation and links the conditional Fréchet mean of the response to the covariate via an optimal transport map. In the simplest context of distributions on the real line, we show how one can define and compute a Fréchet least squares estimator of the regression map, which attains the minimax convergence rate under minimal assumptions. We also discuss possible extensions to higher dimensional laws and to autoregressive settings, and how these seem to require additional smoothness conditions for consistent estimation. Based on joint work with Laya Ghodrati. *Webpage*: https://economiaefinanza.luiss.it/research-seminar/distributional-regressio… *Should you be interested, please kindly send me an e-mail.* Best wishes, Alessia Caponera

Seminario a Roma il 05/02/2025
by Pietro Caputo 21 Jan '25

21 Jan '25

Mercoledì *5 febbraio *alle ore *14.30, *Simone Baldassarri (Mathematical Institute Leiden University) terrà il seminario dal titolo “*Opinion dynamics on dense dynamic random graphs*”. Abstract: Describing the evolution of dynamic networks together with dynamic processes running on them constitutes a major challenge in network science. Despite considerable efforts in past years, and notable progress on an intuitive and approximative level, our mathematical understanding of such systems is still in its infancy. The focus of this talk will be two-opinion voter models on dense dynamic random graphs. The goal is to understand and describe the occurrence of consensus versus polarisation over long periods of time. The former means that all vertices have the same opinion, the latter means that the vertices split into two communities with different opinions and few disagreeing edges. We consider three models for the joint dynamics of opinions and graphs: one with one-way feedback and two with two-way feedback. In the first model only coexistence is attainable, meaning that both opinions survive, but with the presence of many disagreeing edges. In the second model only consensus prevails, while in the third model polarisation is possible. Key results cover functional laws of large numbers for the densities of the two opinions, functional laws of large numbers for the dynamic random graphs in the space of graphons, and a characterisation of the limiting densities in terms of Beta-distributions. Il seminario avrà luogo in presenza presso il Dipartimento di Matematica e Fisica di Roma Tre Aula B in Via della Vasca Navale 84, 00146 Roma -- Pietro Caputo Dipartimento di Matematica e Fisica via della vasca navale 84, 00146 Roma, Italy. www.mat.uniroma3.it/users/caputo Tel +39 3460830076

The ABS school SPATIO-TEMPORAL METHODS IN ENVIRONMENTAL EPIDEMIOLOGY, June 3-6, 2025, Genova, Italy
by Elisa Varini 20 Jan '25

20 Jan '25

We are pleased to inform you that the next Applied Bayesian Statistics summer school - ABS25 will be held from 3 to 6 June 2025 in the beautiful historic city of Genova, overlooking the Ligurian Sea in Italy. The school is organized by CNR IMATI (Institute of Applied Mathematics and Information Technologies at the Italian National Research Council in Milano), in cooperation with the Department of Mathematics of the University of Genova. The topic will be SPATIO-TEMPORAL METHODS IN ENVIRONMENTAL EPIDEMIOLOGY The lecturer will be Prof. ALEXANDRA SCHMIDT (McGill University, Department of Epidemiology, Biostatistics and Occupational Health, Canada), with the support of Dr. CARLO ZACCARDI (University G. d'Annunzio Chieti-Pescara, Department of Economics, Italy). If interested, you can register on the school website: https://abs25.imati.cnr.it/ REGISTRATION is now open, but payments will be possible (by credit card and, possibly, by bank transfer) starting from about mid-February 2025. If you are interested in the school but unwilling to register for the moment, please send an email to abs25(a)mi.imati.cnr.it and we will send you updates and reminders. As in the past (since 2004), there will be a combination of theoretical and practical sessions, along with presentations by participants about their work (past, current and future) related to the topic of the school. OUTLINE: This course aims to explore the interface between environmental epidemiology (EE) and spatio-temporal modelling (ST). The aim of EE is to understand the adverse health effects of environmental hazards and to estimate the risks associated with those hazards. Such risks have traditionally been assessed either over time at a fixed point in space or over space at a fixed point in time. ST modelling characterizes the distribution of those hazards and associated risks over both geographical locations and time. Understanding variation and exploiting dependencies over both space and time greatly increases the power to assess those relationships. The course will cover a wide range of topics from an introduction to spatio-temporal and epidemiological principles along with the foundations of ST modeling, with specific focus on their application, to new directions for research. Topics to be covered: - Types of epidemiological studies: cohort, case–control, ecological. - Measures of risk: relative risks, odds ratios, absolute risk, sources of bias, assessing uncertainty. - Bayesian statistics and computational techniques: Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). - Regression models in epidemiology: Logistic and Poisson generalized linear models, hierarchical models. - Dynamic linear models, temporal autocorrelation. - Spatial models: area and point referenced methods, mapping, geostatistical methods, spatial regression. - Spatial-temporal models: separable models, non-separable models, modelling exposures in space and time.
