Seminar in Statistics - ALEXANDRA CARPENTIER

25 Mar '22

SEMINARS IN STATISTICS @ COLLEGIO CARLO ALBERTO <https://www.carloalberto.org/events/category/seminars/seminars-in-statistic…> Venerdi 1 Aprile 2022, alle ore 12.00, presso il Collegio Carlo Alberto, in Piazza Arbarello 8, Torino, si terrà il seguente seminario: ------------------------------------------------ Speaker: *Alexandra Carpentier* (University of Potsdam) Title: *Optimal ranking in crowd-sourcing* Abstract: Consider a crowd sourcing problem where we have n experts and d tasks. The average ability of each expert for each task is stored in an unknown matrix M, which is only observed in noise and incompletely. We make no (semi) parametric assumptions, but assume that both experts and tasks can be perfectly ranked: so that if an expert is better than another, she performs on average better on all tasks than the other - and that the same holds for the tasks. This implies that if the matrix M is permuted so that the experts and tasks are perfectly ranked, then the permuted matrix M is bi-isotonic. We focus on the problem of recovering the optimal ranking of the experts in l_2 norm, when the questions are perfectly ranked. We provide a minimax-optimal and computationally feasible method for this problem, based on hierarchical clustering, PCA, and exchange of informations among the clusters. We prove in particular - in the case where d > n - that the problem of estimating the expert ranking is significantly easier than the problem of estimating the matrix M. This talk is based on joint work with Emmanuel Pilliat and Nicolas Verzelen. ------------------------------------------------ In ottemperanza alle norme anti Covid, per partecipare in presenza è necessario prenotarsi tramite il seguente form online: https://forms.gle/Z3MVuM7MixQHxrmF6 Sarà possibile seguire il seminario anche in streaming: Join Zoom Meeting <https://us02web.zoom.us/j/81557586058?pwd=SllnbU8wcDh4M2pFNEEvQkk5Q2VqUT09> Meeting ID: 815 5758 6058 Passcode: 518172 Il seminario è organizzato dalla "de Castro" Statistics Initiative www.carloalberto.org/stats Cordiali saluti, Pierpaolo De Blasi -- Pierpaolo De Blasi University of Torino & Collegio Carlo Alberto carloalberto.org/pdeblasi <https://sites.google.com/a/carloalberto.org/pdeblasi/>

Post-doc position in Statistics at University of Padua
by Sara Pillan 25 Mar '22

25 Mar '22

The Department of Statistical Sciences of the University of Padua is advertising a Research Grant for PhD graduates or graduates with a master’s degree. The purpose of this research grant, with a duration of *12 months* and an amount of *Euro 25,930.00 gross*, is to carry out research activity into developing statistical models for high dimensional data following approaches both frequentist and Bayesian. Often a large number of quantitative, qualitative or mixed variables are available and in dealing with them in statistical models requires attention to computational and statistical problems such as the curse of dimensionality. In many cases objective methods are required, but in many fields, e.g., marketing, sociological or biomedical analysis, subjective or a priori information is available, which can be included in the modeling and estimation procedures. The complete call is available at https://www.stat.unipd.it/assegno-di-ricerca-di-tipo-resp-scientifico-prof-… The call will expire on April 8th, 2022. The application may only be submitted by completing the online procedure available at <https://pica.cineca.it/unipd/> https://pica.cineca.it/unipd/assegni-dipstat-4-2022/ Best regards, the administrative secretariat -- Ufficio Ricerca del Dipartimento di Scienze Statistiche Università degli Studi di Padova Via Cesare Battisti 241 - 35121 Padova tel. +39 049 8274125 / +39 049 8274167 www.stat.unipd.it

The method is based on the idea of deriving an approximate posterior density aiming to target the true (unavailable) posterior by running massive simulations from the model for different parameters to replace the intractable likelihood, choosing then those parameters whose simulations are good matches to the observed data. When applying ABC to stochastic models, the derivation of effective summary statistics and proper distances is particularly challenging, since simulations from the model under the same parameter configuration result in different output. Moreover, since exact simulation from complex stochastic models is rarely possible, reliable numerical methods need to be applied. In this talk, we show how to use the underlying structural properties of the model to construct specific ABC summaries that are less sensitive to the intrinsic stochasticity of the model, and the importance of adopting reliable property-preserving numerical (splitting) schemes for the synthetic data generation. Indeed, the commonly used Euler-Maruyama scheme may drastically fail even with very small stepsizes. The proposed approach is illustrated first on the stochastic FitzHugh-Nagumo model, and then on the broad class of partially observed Hamiltonian stochastic differential equations, in particular on the stochastic Jensen-and-Rit neural mass model, both with simulated and with real electroencephalography (EEG) data, for both one neural population [2] and a network of neural populations (ongoing work).
