Webinar Volgushev @Bocconi
by Giacomo Zanella 31 May '21

31 May '21

We announce the following webinar from the Statistics Series at Università Bocconi: Date: Thursday, June 3rd, h17:00 (Italy time) Speaker: Stanislav Volgushev (University of Toronto) Title: Structure learning for Extremes Abstract: Extremal graphical models are sparse statistical models for multivariate extreme events. The underlying graph encodes conditional independencies and enables a visual interpretation of the complex extremal dependence structure. For the important case of tree models, we provide a data-driven methodology for learning the graphical structure. We show that sample versions of the extremal correlation and a new summary statistic, which we call the extremal variogram, can be used as weights for a minimum spanning tree to consistently recover the true underlying tree. Remarkably, this implies that extremal tree models can be learned in a completely non-parametric fashion by using simple summary statistics and without the need to assume discrete distributions, existence of densities, or parametric models for marginal or bivariate distributions. Extensions to more general graphs are also discussed. The webinar will be on zoom at: https://zoom.us/j/97942632075?pwd=eDhNTlREdU5UVGpMcDVPSWV2bU5nQT09 Meeting ID: 979 4263 2075 Passcode: 627490 Kind regards, Giacomo Zanella [La tua firma può scrivere un futuro.

Seminari Prisma 7 Giugno
by Domenico Marinucci 29 May '21

29 May '21

Cari colleghi il prossimo incontro per il ciclo di seminari Prisma (speaker: Francesco Caravenna e Maurizia Rossi) si svolgerà lunedì 7 Giugno alle ore 16 sulla piattaforma Teams; qui sotto il link, i titoli e gli abstract. Grazie per l'attenzione, Domenico Marinucci e Claudia Ceci Link collegamento: https://teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-join/19%3a667d2414be564c5d8fba30acffeb… Speaker: Francesco Caravenna (Università di Milano-Bicocca) Title: Central limit theorems in disordered systems and stochastic PDEs Abstract: I will present some recent convergence results toward Gaussian processes, that arise from statistical mechanics models and stochastic PDEs connected to the so-called KPZ equation. These results may be viewed as generalised central limit theorems and they can be proved with a blend of old and new techniques, whose wide interest I will try to illustrate. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Speaker: Maurizia Rossi (Università di Milano-Bicocca) Title: The geometry of random waves Abstract: In this talk we investigate the behavior of the "typical" eigenfunction of a compact Riemannian manifold. In particular, motivated by both Yau's conjecture on nodal sets and Berry's ansatz on planar random waves, we consider random spherical harmonics and study the distribution of the length of their nodal lines for large eigenvalues. These results raise several questions regarding both the distribution of other geometric functionals of excursion sets at any level and the behavior of nodal statistics of random eigenfunctions of a "generic" manifold. In this talk we answer some of these questions, relying on recent developments in the theory of local geometry of random fields and Gaussian Kinematic Formulae à la Adler & Taylor. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% -- @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ Domenico Marinucci Dipartimento di Matematica Università di Roma Tor Vergata https://www.mat.uniroma2.it/~marinucc/ @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Fwd: [owps] Talks thursday May 27
by Faggionato, Alessandra 26 May '21

26 May '21

Buongiorno inoltro l'annuncio del OWPS di domani. Saluti Alessandra ---------- Forwarded message --------- Da: One World Probability <ow.probability(a)gmail.com> Date: mer 26 mag 2021 alle ore 08:01 Subject: [owps] Talks thursday May 27 To: <owps(a)lists.bath.ac.uk> Dear All, we have a session on opinion dynamics tomorrow, namely talks by Elchanan Mossel and Timo Vilkas, see below. Remember that we start 14:00 UTC which is 16:00 CET! 14:00-15:00 Elchanan Mossel Opinion Exchange Dynamics I will survey some of the main opinion exchange dynamics models that were invented in probability theory and in economics. I will then discuss ``martingale models" - models where the opinion of each agent forms a martingale. I will highlight some recent large-deviation and graph-limit perspectives of these models. Based on: Mossel, Elchanan, Allan Sly, and Omer Tamuz. "Asymptotic learning on bayesian social networks." Probability Theory and Related Fields 158.1-2 (2014): 127-157. Mossel, Elchanan, Allan Sly, and Omer Tamuz. "Strategic learning and the topology of social networks." Econometrica 83.5 (2015): 1755-1794. Mossel, Elchanan, and Omer Tamuz. "Opinion exchange dynamics." Probability Surveys 14 (2017): 155-204. Harel, Matan, Elchanan Mossel, Philipp Strack, and Omer Tamuz. "Rational groupthink." The Quarterly Journal of Economics 136, no. 1 (2021): 621-668. 15:00 - 16:00 UTC Timo Vilkas Long-term behavior in opinion dynamics: clustering vs. consensus and local vs. global Using the examples of the well-known voter model (Holley & Liggett, 1975) and a lesser-known bounded confidence model. introduced by Deffuant et al. (2000), I want to discuss common limit behavior in interacting particle systems modelling opinion dynamics. Both the transition from clustering to consensus formation and the dichotomy between weak (local) and strong (global) consensus will play a central role. The Zoom link is on the OWPS webpage.
