Cari colleghi, inoltro promemoria per il seguente seminario. Un cordiale saluto a tutti, Enea Bongiorno -------------------------------------- 8th of November, at 16.00: - in presence: room 201 of the campus Perrone, via Perrone, 18, Novara Università del Piemonte Orientale, Dipartimento di Studi per l’Economia e l’Impresa. - on-line at the link: meet.google.com/yvq-ccbt-pzt Prof. Germain Van Bever Université de Namur, Belgio Title: Flexible Hilbertian Additive Regression with Small Errors-in-Variables Abstract: In this talk, we present a new framework of additive regression modelling for data in very generic settings. More precisely, we tackle the problem of estimating component functions of additive models where the regressors and/or response variable belong to general Hilbert spaces and can be imperfectly observed. By this,we mean that some variables can be either measured incompletely or with errors. Smooth backﬁtting methods are used to estimate consistently the component functions and we provide explicit rates of convergence. We amply illustrate our methodology in various settings, including the functional, Riemannian and Hilbertian settings. -- Enea Bongiorno,PhD Associate Professor of Statistics Università degli Studi del Piemonte Orientale Via Perrone 18, 28100, Novara, Italia Phone: +390321375317 enea.bongiorno(a)uniupo.it upobook.uniupo.it/enea.bongiorno

Seminar in Statistics - MASSIMILIANO PONTIL

SEMINARS IN STATISTICS @ COLLEGIO CARLO ALBERTO <https://www.carloalberto.org/events/category/seminars/seminars-in-statistic…> Venerdi 11 Novembre 2022, alle ore 12.00, presso il Collegio Carlo Alberto, in Piazza Arbarello 8, Torino, si terrà il seguente seminario: ------------------------------------------------ Speaker: *Massimiliano Pontil* (Italian Institute of Technology and University College London) Title: *Learning Dynamical Systems via Koopman Operator Regression in Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Spaces* Abstract: In the last couple of years the Koopman operator framework attracted a lot of attention due to growing use of data-driven dynamical systems in science and engineering. Relevant results span fields of functional analysis, numerical algorithms, as well as machine learning. In this talk we will focus on discrete dynamical systems modelled by Markov chains and their study through the corresponding Koopman operator. While many data-driven algorithms to reconstruct such operators are well known, their relationship with statistical learning is largely unexplored. We will introduce a framework to learn the Koopman operator from a finite data sample of the dynamical system. We will limit to the important case when the Markov chain admits an invariant distribution and, relying on the theory of reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces (RKHS), introduce a notion of risk from which different estimators naturally arise. Special attention will be given to the estimation of the Koopman spectral properties, and in particular its modal decomposition (KMD) that is of paramount importance in practice. With this framework we will analyse, theoretically and empirically, some existing estimators, e.g. (extended) dynamic mode decomposition (DMD), and introduce a novel reduced-rank operator regression (RRR) estimator. We will further present learning bounds for the proposed estimator, holding for both data drawn i.i.d. from the invariant distribution and for non i.i.d. data gathered from the trajectories of the dynamical system, the latter in terms of mixing coefficients.

Seminario Sapienza Martedì 8 Novembre
by Lorenzo Taggi 07 Nov '22

07 Nov '22

Cari colleghi, riporto l'annuncio del seminario di Matteo Quattropani presso il dipartimento di Matematica di Sapienza Università di Roma. Cordiali saluti, Lorenzo Taggi *Data e ora: *Martedì 8 Novembre, ore 14.15, Sala di Consiglio, Dipartimento di Matematica di Sapienza Università di Roma *Title: *Mixing of the Averaging process on graphs *Speaker:* Matteo Quattropani, Sapienza Università di Roma *Abstract:* The Averaging process (a.k.a. repeated averages) is a mass redistribution model over the vertex set of a graph. Given a graph G, the process starts with a non-negative mass associated to each vertex. The edges of G are equipped with Poissonian clocks: when an edge rings, the masses at the two extremes of the edge are equally redistributed on these two vertices. Clearly, as time grows to infinity the state of the system will converge (in some sense) to a flat configuration in which all the vertices have the same mass. The process has been introduced to the probabilistic community by Aldous and Lanoue [1] in 2012, and recently received some attention thanks to the work of Chatterjee, Diaconis, Sly and Zhang [2], where the authors show an abrupt convergence to equilibrium (measured in L^1 distance) in the case in which the underlying graph is complete (and of diverging size). In this talk, I will present some recent results obtained in collaboration with F. Sau (IST Austria) [3,4] and P. Caputo (Roma Tre) [4]. In [3] we show that if the underlying graph is “finite dimensional” (e.g., a finite box of Z^d), then the convergence to equilibrium is smooth (i.e., without cutoff) when measured in L^p with p \in [1,2]. On the other hand, in [4] we show that a cutoff phenomenon (for the L^1 and L^2 distance to equilibrium) takes place when the underlying graph is the hypercube or the complete bipartite graph.

SPASS seminars: Giulia Livieri & Robin Stephenson - TUE 08.11 at 14:00
by Andrea Agazzi 06 Nov '22

06 Nov '22

Dear Colleagues, We would like to invite you to the following SPASS <https://sites.google.com/unipi.it/spass> seminars, jointly organized by UniPi, SNS, UniFi and UniSi: - *N-player Games and Mean Field Games of Moderate Interaction* Giulia Livieri (Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa) - *Scaling Limits of Multi-Type Markov Branching Trees* Robin Stephenson (University of Sheffield) The seminars will take place in person on *TUE, 08.11.2022 at 14:00* (the second talk starting at 15:00) in Sala Seminari, Dipartimento di Matematica, University of Pisa and streamed online here <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 -------------------------------------------- Abstracts: *N-player Games and Mean Field Games of Moderate Interaction* *We study the asymptotic organization among many optimizing individuals interacting in a suitable "moderate" way. We justify this limiting game by proving that its solution provides approximate Nash equilibria for large but finite player games. This proof depends upon the derivation of a law of large numbers for the empirical processes in the limit as the number of players tends to infinity. Because it is of independent interest, we prove this result in full detail. We characterize the solutions of the limiting game via a verification argument.* *Scaling Limits of Multi-Type Markov Branching Trees* *Consider a population where individuals have two characteristics: a size, which is a positive integer, and a type, which is a member of a finite set. This population reproduces in a Galton-Watson fashion, with one additional condition: given that an individual has size n, the sum of the sizes of its children is less than or equal to n. We call multi-type Markov branching tree the family tree of such a population.*

[PRISMA] seminari di Paolo Dai Pra e Alberto Chiarini
by Domenico Marinucci 03 Nov '22

03 Nov '22

Cari colleghi i seminari del gruppo UMI Prisma riprenderanno a partire da Novembre con il calendario consueto (primo lunedì del mese, ore 16-18, online su piattaforma Teams). Qui sotto i dettagli del prossimo incontro (Paolo Dai Pra e Alberto Chiarini), grazie per l'attenzione, Domenico Marinucci * November 7, 2022, 16:00-17:00 (CET): Paolo Dai Pra TITLE: Noise-induced periodicity in stochastic dynamics: some examples ABSTRACT: The emergence of periodic behavior in the dynamics of several interacting components is a common pattern of self-organisation in living systems. Rigorous mathematical treatments are still limited to few examples. In this talk we review some of these examples, emphasizing the essential role of the noise in the appearance of regular rhythms. * November 7, 2022, 17:00-18:00 (CET): Alberto Chiarini TITLE: How costly is it for a simple random walk to cover a fraction of amacroscopic body? ABSTRACT: In this talk we aim at establishing large deviation estimates for the probability that a simple random walk on the Euclidean lattice (d>2) covers a substantial fraction of a macroscopic body. It turns out that, when such rare event happens, the random walk is locally well approximated by random interlacements with a specific intensity, which can be used as a pivotal tool to obtain precise exponential rates. Random interlacements have been introduced by Sznitman in 2007 in order to describe the local picture left by the trace of a random walk on a large discrete torus when it runs up to times proportional to the volume of the torus, and has been since a popular object of study. In the first part of the talk we introduce random interlacements and give a brief account of some results surrounding this object. In the second part of the talk we study the event that random interlacements cover a substantial fraction of a macroscopic body. This allows to obtain an upper bound on the probability of the corresponding event for the random walk. Finally, by constructing a near-optimal strategy for the random walk to cover a macroscopic body, we discuss a matching large deviation lower bound. The talk is based on ongoing work with M. Nitzschner (NYU Courant).

Seminario di Gianni Pagnini a Napoli
by Enrica Pirozzi 30 Oct '22

30 Oct '22

--- AVVISO di SEMINARIO Dr. Gianni Pagnini BCAM & Ikerbasque, Bilbao, Spain Title: Fractional diffusion as an intermediate asymptotic regime. Abstract: A continuous-time random walk driven by two different Markovian hopping-trap mechanisms is investigated and it is shown that the paradigmatic features of anomalous diffusion are met. More precisely, anomalous diffusion results from a process that goes through the action of two co-existing Markovian mechanisms acting with different statistical frequency, and the probability of occurrence of this switch between the two Markovian settings originates and fully characterises the anomalous diffusion. In fact, ensemble and single-particle observables of this model have been studied and they match the main characteristics of anomalous diffusion as they are typically measured in living systems. In particular, the celebrated transition of the walker?s distribution from exponential to stretched-exponential and finally to Gaussian distribution is displayed by including also the Brownian yet non-Gaussian interval. Moreover, the model dynamically provides the power-law exponent of the mean-square displacement as a function of the probability of switching between the two Markovian states, namely the fractional order. Hence, fractional diffusion emerges as an intermediate asymptotic regime.

Seminar Van Bever at UPO
by Enea Bongiorno 28 Oct '22

28 Oct '22

Dear colleagues, We are glad to invite you to the seminar that will take place on the 8th of November, at 16.00: - in presence: room 201 of the campus Perrone, via Perrone, 18, Novara Università del Piemonte Orientale, Dipartimento di Studi per l’Economia e l’Impresa. - on-line at the link: meet.google.com/yvq-ccbt-pzt Prof. Germain Van Bever Université de Namur, Belgio Title: Flexible Hilbertian Additive Regression with Small Errors-in-Variables Abstract: In this talk, we present a new framework of additive regression modelling for data in very generic settings. More precisely, we tackle the problem of estimating component functions of additive models where the regressors and/or response variable belong to general Hilbert spaces and can be imperfectly observed. By this,we mean that some variables can be either measured incompletely or with errors. Smooth backﬁtting methods are used to estimate consistently the component functions and we provide explicit rates of convergence. We amply illustrate our methodology in various settings, including the functional, Riemannian and Hilbertian settings.

Seminar Dombry @Bocconi - Thursday 3/11 at 12:00
by Giacomo Zanella 28 Oct '22

28 Oct '22

We are glad to announce the following seminar: Thursday, 3rd of November 2022 12:00, Room AS02 (only in presence, no online) Bocconi University, Via Roentgen 1, floor -1 Speaker: Clément Dombry (Université de Franche-Comté) Title: Stone's theorem and minimax rate of convergence for distributional regression Abstract: Distributional regression aims at estimating the full conditional distribution of the response variable given the covariates and is a fundamental tool in probabilistic forecast. In this talk, we prove Stone's theorem for distributional regression. It establishes universal consistency in Wasserstein distance of a large class of models based on local weights. Next we consider minimax rates of convergence on suitable classes of distributions and prove that nearest neighbor and kernel algorithms are rate optimal. Best regards, Giacomo Zanella

Thank you very much. Sincerely, Gianni Ps: further open positions at BCAM can be found at http://www.bcamath.org/en/research/job <http://www.bcamath.org/en/research/job> ============== Effective treatment strategies for rare diseases based on gene therapy Project summary Gene therapy medicinal products (GTMPs) are one of the most promising biopharmaceuticals, which are beginning to show encouraging results. Gene therapy based on the administration of DNA, messenger RNA (mRNA) or short-hairpin RNA (shRNA) are intended for gene augmentation or gene suppression, whereas the use of small interfering RNA (siRNA), microRNA, antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) or aptamers provides posttranslational gene silencing. The efforts and advances made in this area have led to the development of new therapeutic strategies to treat several disorders, many of them without currently available treatments, as rare diseases. A key challenge for the clinical application of nucleic acid medicinal products entails the availability of delivery systems specifically adapted to their features and purpose. For a successful gene therapy, the delivery systems have to protect the genetic material from degradation, facilitating its internalization in target cells and releasing them intracellularly. The first step for an efficient internalization of the nucleic acid is the interaction between the delivery system and the cell membrane. Therefore, the understanding of the intracellular behaviour of the nanodelivery systems, the nucleic acid they carry (mRNA, DNA, siRNA, shRNA or ASO) and the endosomes after the internalization process will allow to advance in the design of nucleic acid based-nanomedicines aiming to improve the effectiveness of gene therapy treatments, by developing strategies for an improved intracellular delivery and endosomal escape. The issue of physical understanding and mathematical modelling of nanodelivering is still an open problem. As a matter of fact, anomalous diffusion emerged in living systems, namely, diffusing particles do not follow rules and properties of Brownian motion, and delivering by nanoparticles also goes according to anomalous diffusion such that modelling and understanding of anomalous diffusion is fundamental for gene therapy improvement. Therefore, new and advanced techniques are required for modelling such random motions and further studies needed for the understanding of the underlying statistical physics. It is well-known that anomalous diffusion is strongly related with fractional diffusion equations that are differential equations involving integral operators defined within the branch of mathematical analysis named Fractional Calculus. Under the point of view of statistical physics, these systems show not classical features as, for example, long-range correlations, power-law distributions, weak ergodicity breaking and aging. This framework calls for stochastic processes in inhomogeneous media and/or for heterogeneous ensembles of particles and then within the families, for example, of scaled Brownian motion and diffusing-diffusivity as well as those of the generalized gray Brownian motion and the superstatistical fractional Brownian motion, in general, and their under-damped extension. In general, the project aims to assess in deep the intracellular behavior of lipid nanoparticles for nucleic acid delivery for establishing models of anomalous diffusion useful to optimize the nanomedicines since the first steps of development. An important step towards further progress in the clinical application of gene therapy is expected and the results be applied in a number of delivery systems and diseases. The project will be mainly focused on the following rare diseases: Rare metabolic diseases; Rare retinal degenerative diseases; CAR therapy in pediatric acute leukemia, that are currently investigated by the PharmaNanoGene group at the Faculty of Pharmacy (UPV/EHU) and Bioaraba Health Research Institute. The development of the proper stochastic processes for nanodelivering and the interpretation of the corresponding statistical physics will be conducted by the Statistical Physics group at BCAM led by the proponent Ikerbasque Research Associate Gianni Pagnini has decades of experience in the field of fractional diffusion equations and the development of the related models, while the molecular simulations and advanced data analysis will be provided by the Mathematical, Computational and Experimental Neuroscience group at BCAM led by Ikerbasque Professor Serafim Rodrigues. — Gianni Pagnini Ikerbasque Research Associate BCAM - Basque Center for Applied Mathematics Alameda de Mazarredo, 14 E-48009 Bilbao, Basque Country - Spain Tel. +34 946 567 842 gpagnini(a)bcamath.org | www.bcamath.org/gpagnini ( matematika mugaz bestalde )
