You are welcome to the next Statistics seminar at Dept of Mathematical Sciences at Chalmers and Göteborg University, Sweden. On Tuesday April 12, Radu Stoica <https://sites.google.com/site/radustefanstoica/> will talk of: ///"Random structures and patterns in spatio-temporal data: probabilistic modelling and statistical inference"/ / / //*About the speaker: *Radu Stoica <https://sites.google.com/site/radustefanstoica/> is professor at Université de Lorraine, France. He is interested in probabilistic modeling and statistical inference for the analysis of spatio-temporal data // //* * *Abstract:* The useful information carried by spatio-temporal data is often outlined by geometric structures and patterns. Filaments or clusters induced by galaxy positions in our Universe are such an example. Two situations are to be considered. First, the pattern of interest is hidden in the data set, hence the pattern should be detected. Second, the structure to be studied is observed, so relevant characterization of it should be done. Probabilistic modelling is one of the approaches that allows to furnish answers to these questions. This is done by developing unitary methodologies embracing simultaneously three directions: modelling, simulation and inference. This talk presents the use of marked point processes applied to the detection and to the characterization of such structures. Practical examples are also shown.* * *Feel free to spread this announcement in your network.* * * *Where*: room MVL14 or https://chalmers.zoom.us/j/64160866575 Password: 024139 ** **** *When*: Tuesday 12 April at 14.30-15.30*(Stockholm time)*. ** -- _________________________________________________________ Umberto Picchini, Associate Professor, PhD, Docent https://umbertopicchini.github.io/ , twitter: @uPicchini
