Dear colleagues,
We are glad to announce the following *hybrid* - that is, in person with
online streaming - *talk*:
SPEAKER: *Quentin Berger *(Sorbonne Université)
TITLE: *Some results about the Ising model on a Galton-Watson tree*
TIME: *Monday 18 March*, *10:30-11:30* (Rome time zone),
PLACE: building *U5*/*RATIO,* room *3014* - Dept. of Mathematics,
Università di *Milano-Bicocca*
*ABSTRACT*: The goal of my talk is to present some results on the Ising
model on a Galton-Watson tree. I will start with a general introduction,
recalling in particular the seminal results of Russell Lyons. I will then
present the results obtained in collaboration with Irene Ayuso Ventura
(University Paris-Est Créteil), which estimate the effect of a sparse
external field or boundary condition on the magnetisation of the root.

Titolo: On Neighbourhood Cross Validation
Abstract: Cross validation is a well known method for estimating hyperparameters in complex regression models. It comes in many varieties, but some of the more interesting flavours require multiple model fits with consequently high cost. This talk shows how the high cost can be side-stepped for a wide range of models estimated using a quadratically penalized smooth loss, with rather low approximation error. Once the computational cost has the same leading order as a single model fit, it becomes feasible to efficiently optimize the chosen cross-validation criterion with respect to multiple smoothing/precision parameters. Interesting applications include cross-validating smooth additive quantile regression models, and the use of leave-out-neighbourhood cross validation for dealing with nuisance short range autocorrelation. The link between cross validation and the jackknife can be exploited to obtain reasonably well calibrated uncertainty quantification in these case.

Dear all,
we are glad to announce the following hybrid seminar
*March 19, 2024, 12:15 PM*
*Where*: Aula Delta 2C- edificio Zeta (Campus Scientifico), Via Torino,
155 Mestre (Venice, Italy)
Zoom:
https://unive.zoom.us/j/85153268624?pwd=MzBhdlA2M1B2dThJQ2Y5T0EwUE5PZz09
*Speaker*: Andrea Cappozzo, Università degli Studi di Milano (Milano, Italy)
*Title*: Penalized mixed-effects multitask learning: a framework for
regularizing multilevel models with applications on DNA methylation
biomarkers creation
*Abstract:*
Linear mixed modeling is a well-established technique widely employed
when observations possess a grouping structure. Nevertheless, this
standard methodology is no longer applicable when the learning framework
encompasses a multivariate response and high-dimensional predictors. To
overcome these issues, a penalized estimation scheme based on an
expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm is proposed, in which any
penalty criteria previously devised for fixed-effects models can be
conveniently incorporated into the fitting process. We employ the novel
methodology for creating surrogate biomarkers of cardiovascular risk
factors, such as lipids and blood pressure, from whole-genome DNA
methylation data in a multi-center study. The proposed approach shows
promising results in both predictive accuracy and bio-molecular
interpretation compared to state-of-the-art alternatives.
Based on joint work with Francesca Ieva and Giovanni Fiorito.

Dear all,
We are happy to announce that on Monday, September 25th, at 15h00 in Aula Dal Passo of Tor Vergata Math Department, RoMaDS (https://www.mat.uniroma2.it/~rds/about.php) will host Marco Carfagnini (University of California San Diego) with the seminar
"Spectral gaps via small deviations”
Abstract: In this talk we will discuss spectral gaps of second order differential operators and their connection to limit laws such as small deviations and Chung’s laws of the iterated logarithm. The main focus is on hypoelliptic diffusions such as the Kolmogorov diffusion and horizontal Brownian motions on Carnot groups. If time permits, we will discuss spectral properties and existence of spectral gaps on general Dirichlet metric measure spaces.This talk is based on joint works with Maria (Masha) Gordina and Alexander (Sasha) Teplyaev.
We encourage in-person partecipation. Should you be unable to come, here is the link to the Teams streaming:

Dear Colleagues,
The Universities of Insubria and Bicocca are collaborating to organize the next International Conference on Set Optimization for Applications (SOfA 2024), scheduled to take place in Stresa on June 3-7, 2024.
The 6th SOfA aims to bring together experts in various fields of set and vector optimization, convex and variational analysis, stochastic analysis, multivariate dynamic programming, multi-criteria decision-making, as well as applications in economics, risk measurement, game theory, and statistics. The conference is, by tradition, very open; the scientific and local committees aspire to extend beyond the realm of set and vector optimization, attracting individuals with a research background in optimization, even those only tangentially related to this topic. So, a very mixed and curious audience is expected.
Website: SOfA 2024<https://sites.google.com/view/sofa2024/home?authuser=0>
Invited speakers:
Ignacio Cascos<https://www.uc3m.es/ss/Satellite/UC3MInstitucional/en/Detalle/Organismo_C/1…> - Universidad Carlos III de Madrid
Giulia Di Nunno<https://www.mn.uio.no/math/english/people/aca/giulian/> - University of Oslo
Jin Ma<https://dornsife.usc.edu/jin-ma/> - University of Southern California
Call for papers:
We encourage submissions on any topic within the overall theme of the conference. The abstract submission template is available online via the Conference<https://sites.google.com/view/sofa2024/submissions?authuser=0> <https://sites.google.com/view/sofa2024/submissions?authuser=0> website<https://sites.google.com/view/sofa2024/submissions?authuser=0>. Abstracts should be submitted before March 31, 2024. Decisions regarding acceptance will be made by April 7, 2024.
Don't miss the opportunity to join us also for a scenic cruise trip on Lago Maggiore and enjoy the spectacle of its famous islands!
** Considering the high tourist demand in June, we strongly recommend booking as soon as possible. Availability is not guaranteed for last-minute bookings, and rates will increase as the conference start date approaches. **
We look forward to welcoming you in Stresa.

RELATORI: Luca Avena (Università di Firenze) e Matteo Quattropani (Sapienza Università di Roma)
TITOLO: Incontri tra passeggiate aleatorie e dinamiche di opinione su grafi random
RIASSUNTO: Nella prima parte del seminario discuteremo risultati, classici o più recenti, della teoria che lega il comportamento di passeggiate aleatorie su grafi finiti a quello dei processi di coalescenza, e le relative implicazioni nell’analisi del tempo di consenso per dinamiche di opinione markoviane.
Nella seconda parte del seminario presenteremo uno specifico risultato, ottenuto recentemente in collaborazione con Federico Capannoli e Rajat Shubra Hazra (Leiden University), in cui il grafo sottostante è aleatorio, orientato, e con un arbitraria sequenza di gradi.
In particolare, in funzione della sequenza dei gradi scelta, identificheremo esplicitamente la legge dei tempi di incontro di due passeggiate aleatorie e, di conseguenza, il tempo di consenso per la dinamica di opinione associata. Discuteremo quindi delle implicazioni di questo risultato nel contesto applicativo del design delle reti, individuando le caratteristiche del grafo che tendono ad aumentare o a diminuire il tempo necessario a raggiungere il consenso.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
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://www.youtube.com/@umi1922/videos
