Dear Colleague,
tomorrow, Friday, April 11 ,
(12:30 noon London, 1:30 pm Berlin, 2:30 pm Helsinki, 7:30 pm Beijing)

*Arnaud Debussche*
(ENS Rennes, France)
will speak about
*From correlated to white transport noise in fluid models*
Abstract: Stochastic fluid models with transport noise are popular, the
transport noise models unresolved small scales. The main assumption in
these models is a very strong separation of scales allowing this
representation of small scales by white - i.e. fully decorrelated -
noise. It is therefore natural to investigate whether these models are
limits of models with correlated noises. Also, an advantage of
correlated noises is that they allow classical calculus. In particular,
it allows to revisit the derivation of stochastic models from
variational principles and allows to derive an equation for the
evolution of the noise components. The advantage of having such an
equation is that in most works, the noise components are considered as
given and stationary with respect to time which is non realistic.
Coupling stochastic fluid models with these gives more realistic systems.
===== about the speaker ====
Arnaud Debussche is a prominent French mathematician specializing in
stochastic partial differential equations and their applications. Born
in 1965, he attended the École Normale Supérieure de Saint-Cloud,where
he pursued advanced studies in mathematics. He earned his Ph.D. from
Université d'Orsay in 1989. Following a postdoctoral position at Indiana
University, he joined the National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS)
in 1992. In 2000, he became a full professor at the École Normale
Supérieure de Rennes, where he continues to contribute significantly to
the field. Throughout his career, Professor Debussche has made
substantial contributions to the analysis and numerical simulation of
stochastic partial differential equations, particularly in fluid
dynamics. His work includes studies on the stochastic Navier–Stokes
equations and the stochastic nonlinear Schrödinger equation. He has also
co-edited scholarly works on stochastic partial differential equations,
reflecting his active engagement in advancing mathematical understanding
in this area. Professor Debussche's research has been widely recognized
and cited, underscoring his influence in the mathematical community. His
ongoing work continues to shape the study of stochastic processes and
their applications in complex systems.

Seminari on-line del gruppo UMI - PRISMA (http://www.umi-prisma.polito.it/)
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://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmySpc-jrtAMq84VH71evyqPc1hl6eEQb
Il prossimo appuntamento è per lunedì 7 aprile 2025. I relatori saranno
Stefano Favaro (Università di Torino) e Mario Beraha (Università di Milano
Bicocca) che parleranno di:
*Il modello di Ewens-Pitman per partizioni aleatorie e la sua (naturale)
estensione alle allocazioni aleatorie*
con il seguente orario:
16:00 Primo seminario
16:30 Pausa e discussione
16:45 Secondo seminario
17:15 Conclusione e discussione

RELATORI: Stefano Favaro (Università di Torino) e Mario Beraha (Università
di Milano Bicocca)
TITOLO: Il modello di Ewens-Pitman per partizioni aleatorie e la sua
(naturale) estensione alle allocazioni aleatorie
RIASSUNTO: Nella prima parte del seminario verrà introdotto il modello di
Ewens-Pitman per partizioni aleatorie, presentandone una caratterizzazione
in termini di sufficienza predittiva nell’ambito della classe dei modelli
di campionamento di specie. Successivamente, verrà offerta una panoramica
sui principali teoremi limite relativi al numero di blocchi e blocchi con
molteplicità della partizione di Ewens-Pitman, con particolare attenzione
alle fluttuazioni quasi-certe, ai principi di grandi deviazioni e alle
fluttuazioni Gaussiane. Infine, si illustrerà un’applicazione del modello
di Ewens-Pitman alla soluzione Bayesiana del problema della stima della
“missing mass”, noto come problema di Good-Turing, e della stima del
“unseen”, o problema di Fisher-Efron.
Nella seconda parte del seminario si parlerà di allocazioni aleatorie;
un’allocazione di N oggetti è un multi-insieme di sottoinsiemi non vuoti
degli N oggetti che, al contrario di una partizione, possono non essere
mutuamente esclusivi o esaustivi. Partendo dal modello Indian buffet di
Ghahramani e Griffiths, che costituisce il naturale analogo del modello di
Ewens nel caso di allocazioni, verranno presentati alcuni risultati
sull’analisi Bayesiana di allocazioni aleatorie. In particolare, verranno
discusse caratterizzazioni di sufficienza predittiva per allocazioni
aleatorie, che generalizzano i corrispondenti risultati sui modelli di
campionamento di specie. Due illustrazioni relative al problema delle
“missing features” verranno descritte.

Dear all,
the next OWABI seminar www.warwick.ac.uk/oneworldabc<http://www.warwick.ac.uk/oneworldabc> is quickly approaching, being scheduled on Thursday the 27th March at 11am UK time.
Our next speaker is Meïli Baragatti<https://www.vinifera-euromaster.eu/team/meili-baragatti/> (Université de Montpellier), who will talk about "Approximate Bayesian Computation with Deep Learning and Conformal Prediction", with an abstract reported below.
Abstract: Approximate Bayesian Computation (ABC) methods are commonly used to approximate posterior distributions in models with unknown or computationally intractable likelihoods. Classical ABC methods are based on nearest neighbor type algorithms and rely on the choice of so-called summary statistics, distances between datasets and a tolerance threshold. Recently, methods combining ABC with more complex machine learning algorithms have been proposed to mitigate the impact of these "user-choices''.
In this talk, I will present you the first, to our knowledge, ABC method completely free of summary statistics, distance, and tolerance threshold. Moreover, in contrast with usual generalizations of the ABC method, it associates a confidence interval (having a proper frequentist marginal coverage) with the posterior mean estimation (or other moment-type estimates).
This method, named ABCD-Conformal, uses a neural network with Monte Carlo Dropout to provide an estimation of the posterior mean (or other moment type functionals), and conformal theory to obtain associated confidence sets. I will compare its performances with other ABC methods on several examples, and show you that it is efficient for estimating multidimensional parameters, while being "amortized".
Keywords: Likelihood-free inference · Approximate Bayesian computation · Convolutional neural networks · Dropout · Conformal prediction
