We illustrate it in a variety of settings, showing in particular adaptation with respect to unknown smoothness and structure parameters in the minimax sense (up to logarithmic factors). We present numerical simulations corroborating the theory. This talk is based on joint works with Sergios Agapiou (Cyprus) and with Paul Egels (Sorbonne, in progress). ------------------------------------------------ Sarà possibile seguire il seminario anche in streaming: Join Zoom Meeting <https://us02web.zoom.us/j/81877065471?pwd=SnBhTkNWRlA5cy9XZjdldFJpUzJkdz09> Il seminario è organizzato dalla "de Castro" Statistics Initiative www.carloalberto.org/stats -- Pierpaolo De Blasi University of Torino & Collegio Carlo Alberto carloalberto.org/pdeblasi <https://sites.google.com/a/carloalberto.org/pdeblasi/>
