StaTalk on Biostatistics - final remind
by Francesca Ieva 25 Mar '15

25 Mar '15

Dear all, this is the last call for registrations to the first StaTalk promoted by the young section of Italian Statistical Society (y-SIS), to be held in **Milan (Italy) on April 24th, 2015** *STATALK ON BIOSTATISTICS* https://sites.google.com/site/youngsocietaitalianastatistica/events/statalk… Department of Mathematics "F. Enriques", Università degli Studi di Milano, via Saldini 50, Milano (Italy) All the information, including the program and the sign-up link for the conference, can be found on the conference website. Statalks are a series of one-day workshop aimed at early career statisticians, i.e., master degree students, people carrying out a PhD, post-docs and young researchers. StaTalks are a fantastic opportunity to share knowledge on advanced topics of statistics. The hosting research group will propose tutorials, seminars and interactive round tables on the main fields of research and application it is concerned. Participants can contribute bringing their own experience through presentations, ideas, poster and material to be shared in the debate. Registrations to the first StaTalk are still opened. *No conference fees are due, but registration is mandatory, by April 10th*, using the form available on the website. For further information or any doubt and question, please visit the website https://sites.google.com/site/youngsocietaitalianastatistica/home Best Regards Francesca Ieva -- Francesca Ieva Department of Mathematics Università degli Studi di Milano, via Saldini 50, 20133 Milano web: https://sites.google.com/site/mypagefi mail to: francesca.ieva(a)unimi.it

Seminario ANTONIETTI (RGS & Matematica Applicata)
by Giacomo Aletti 24 Mar '15

24 Mar '15

Con preghiera di diffusione tra tutti i possibili interessati, scusandomi per invii multipli. Cordialmente, Giacomo Aletti -------------- Nell'ambito dei Reading Group Seminars e del Seminario di Matematica Applicata, il giorno lunedì 19 Gennaio 2015, alle ore 14.30, nell'Aula C del Dipartimento di Matematica dell'Universita' degli Studi di Milano, Via C. Saldini, 50, Milano, "Testing spiking neural network cerebellar model in closed-loop: three neurorobotic paradigms" Alberto ANTONIETTI Neuroengineering and medical robotics lab., Politecnico di Milano, ABSTRACT: The cerebellum is involved in a large number of different neural processes, especially in associative learning and in fine motor control. To develop a comprehensive theory of sensorimotor learning and control, it is crucial to determine the neural basis of coding and plasticity embedded into the cerebellar neural circuit and how they are translated into behavioral outcomes in learning paradigms. Learning has to be inferred from the interaction of an embodied system with its real environment, and the same cerebellar principles derived from cell physiology have to be able to drive a variety of tasks of different nature, calling for complex timing and movement patterns. We have coupled a realistic cerebellar spiking neural network with a real robot and challenged it in multiple diverse sensorimotor tasks. Adaptive motor control protocols with acquisition and extinction phases have been designed and tested, including an associative Pavlovian task (Eye blinking classical conditioning), a vestibulo-ocular task and a perturbed arm reaching task operating in closed-loop. A bidirectional long-term plasticity rule implemented at parallel fibers-Purkinje cell synapses modulated the output activity in the deep cerebellar nuclei. In all tasks, the neurorobot learned to adjust timing and gain of the motor responses by tuning its output discharge. It succeeded in reproducing how human biological systems acquire, extinguish and express knowledge of a noisy and changing world. ================= Reading Group Seminars: The Reading Group Seminars (RGS) are organized within an open community of researchers interested in applying up to date mathematical modeling and data analysis approaches to the study of biological systems. The RGS take place at the Math. Department in Milan (via Saldini). Initiatives and updates are published on the website: http://rgs.mat.unimi.it/. -- ------------------------------- Giacomo Aletti, Associate Professor ADAMSS Centre (ex MIRIAM) Advanced Applied Mathematical and Statistical Sciences Department of Mathematics (www.matematica.unimi.it) Via Saldini, 50 20133 Milano, Italy Tel: +39-02-503.16158 Fax:+39-02-503.16090 Cell: +39-340-9739142

Schwartzman & Cheng - 25 MARZO - TOR VERGATA - CICLO SEMINARI PASCAL
by Valentina Cammarota 20 Mar '15

Ciclo di Seminari - Progetto ERC grant PASCAL (Probabilistic and Statistical Techniques for Cosmological Applications) Mercoledi` 25 marzo ore 14 - 16 Aula D'Antoni 1101 Dipartimento di Matematica Università di Roma Tor Vergata Speakers: Armin Schwartzman & Dang Cheng Department of Statistics, North Carolina State University Title: Distribution of the Height of Local Maxima of Gaussian Random Fields Abstract: Let {f(t): t \in T} be a smooth Gaussian random field over a parameter space T, where T may be a subset of Euclidean space or, more generally, a Riemannian manifold. We provide a general formula for the distribution of the height of a local maximum P { f(t_0)>u | t_0 is a local maximum of f(t) } when f is non-stationary. Moreover, we establish asymptotic approximations for the overshoot distribution of a local maximum P { f(t_0)>u+v | t_0 is a local maximum of f(t) and f(t_0)>v } as v \to \infty. Assuming further that f is isotropic, we apply techniques from random matrices theory related to the Gaussian orthogonal ensemble to compute such conditional probabilities explicitly when T is Euclidean or a sphere of arbitrary dimension. Such calculations are motivated by the statistical problem of detecting peaks in the presence of smooth Gaussian noise. Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare. ................................................................................

Secondo seminario di Elena Kosygina
by Mariani, Mauro 19 Mar '15

19 Mar '15

In aggiungta al seminario gia' segnalato di Mercoledi' 25, il giorno Venerdi' 27 Marzo 2015 alloe ore 15:00, nell'Aula INdAM del Dipartimento di Matematica dell'Universita' di Roma La Sapienza Elena Kosygina (Baruch College and the CUNY Graduate Center) effettuera' un seminario dal titolo: *On the connection between homogenization of some stochastic Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equations and large deviations of diffusions with random drift in a random potential* Sunto del seminario: The connection mentioned in the title is well-known (see, for example, A.-S. Sznitman, Brownian motion in a Poissonian potential, 1993, PTRF). The goal of the talk is to review some necessary facts from large deviations theory and explain that this connection is actually an equivalence. Un saluto Mauro Mariani
