WEBINARS IN STATISTICS @ COLLEGIO CARLO ALBERTO <https://www.carloalberto.org/events/category/seminars/seminars-in-statistic…> Joint initiative with MIDAS COMPLEX MODELING RESEARCH NETWORK <http://midas.mat.uc.cl/network> Giovedi 17 Dicembre 2020, alle ore 17:00, si terrà il seguente webinar: ------------------------------------------------ Speaker: *David Rossell *(Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona, Spain) Title: *Approximate Laplace approximation* Zoom link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/84312531120?pwd=VVJraStLVkR2M0w0ZXZnU3M0MFp2UT09 <https://us02web.zoom.us/j/88252069649?pwd=V2Z3b1UrZVVWNWZ4OXhydUtIakxpUT09> Meeting ID: 843 1253 1120 Passcode: 105560 Abstract: Bayesian model selection requires an integration exercise in order to assign posterior model probabilities to each candidate model. The computation becomes cumbersome when the integral has no closed-form, particularly when the sample size is large, or the number of models is large. We present a simple yet powerful idea based on the Laplace approximation (LA) to an integral. LA uses a quadratic Taylor expansion at the mode of the integrand and is typically quite accurate, but requires cumbersome likelihood evaluations (for large n) an optimization (for large p). We propose the approximate Laplace approximation (ALA), which uses an Taylor expansion at the null parameter value. ALA brings very significant speed-ups by avoiding optimizations altogether, and evaluating likelihoods via sufficient statistics. ALA is an approximate inference method equipped with strong model selection properties in the family of non-linear GLMs, attaining comparable rates to exact computation. When (inevitably) the model is misspecified the ALA rates can actually be faster than for exact computation, depending on the type of misspecification. We show examples in non-linear Gaussian regression with non-local priors, for which no closed-form integral exists, as well as non-linear logistic, Poisson and survival regression. ------------------------------------------------ Il webinar è organizzato dalla "de Castro" Statistics Initiative www.carloalberto.org/stats in collaborazione con il Collegio Carlo Alberto e rientra nel Complex Data Modeling Research Network midas.mat.uc.cl/network Cordiali saluti, Pierpaolo De Blasi --- University of Torino & Collegio Carlo Alberto carloalberto.org/pdeblasi <https://sites.google.com/a/carloalberto.org/pdeblasi/>

Grazie e a presto, Cristian *** Dear Colleagues, on December 17th, 2020 - 11:30 (CET), as part of the Research Seminars at the Department of Economics and Management, University of Brescia, the following webinar will take place: On Optimal Planning of Double-Spending Attacks presented by Prof. Juri Hinz, University of Technology Sydney, and organized by Prof. Paolo Falbo and Prof. Cristian Pelizzari Abstract Diverse concepts originating from the blockchain idea have gained popularity. However, there is concern about stability of such systems. In this setting, an attempt to spend the digital funds more than once (the so-called double-spending attack) has been analyzed by several authors. The present contribution addresses a refinement to this problem under realistic assumptions. Live presentation on: Google Meet.
