Dear All,
As part of the activities of the Applied Probability Section of the Royal Statistical Society, we are pleased to announce an (online) afternoon on the topic:
"Data analysis and stochastic control: where do statistics and applied probability come together?"
on Wednesday 9 December from 1.30pm to 4.30pm (GMT, London time). Registration via the website
is mandatory and it is free for those (non-RSS-members) registering before 30 November. After that a £10 registration fee will be charged to non-members for participation.
The meeting will include four talks and a panel discussion. Our speakers and panellists are:
Beatrice Acciaio (ETH Zurich)
Sam Cohen (University of Oxford)
Blanka Horvath (King's College, London)
John Moriarty (Queen Mary University, London)
who will present their recent work in the field of data-driven stochastic control and will share their views on what applied probability can bring to the analysis of data. We encourage the participation of a heterogeneous audience of mathematicians and statisticians to contribute to a lively interdisciplinary discussion.
Schedule:
Meeting starts 1.30pm, first session: talks by Sam Cohen and Beatrice Acciaio
Second session starts 2.45: talks by Blanka Horvath and John Moriarty
Panel discussion starts 3.30pm
