Adaptive convergence results for numerical efficient Bayesian methods
Jan van Waaj, University of Amsterdam, Netherlands 2.28.0.108
Minimization-based sampling from the posterior distribution for inverse problems with Gaussian prior distributions
Dean S. Oliver, Uni Centre for Integrated Petroleum Research, Bergen, Norway 2.09.0.1410:15-11:45
Inverse problems for subsurface ow are typically characterized by large numbers of para- meters (e.g. coef cients of PDEs describing ow and transport)…
more ›Phase transition in mean-field games: An application to synchronization of coupled oscillators
Prashant Mehta, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA 2.09.014Begin: 14:00
This talk is concerned with phase transition and self-organization in mean-field games.
The motivation comes from the following sequence of events…
more ›Improving Data Assimilation by Surfing the Waves
Juan Restrepo, Oregon State University, USA 2.28.2.12310:15-11:45
The use of models and data, via data assimilation, is one ofthe strategies pursued to improve climate and weather predictions and retrodictions. In…

Femke Vossepoel, Delft University of Technology, Netherlands 2.28.0.10410:15-11:15
Fluid extraction from a subsurface hydrocarbon reservoir results in compaction of the reservoir, in particular cases leading to subsidence and induced…
more ›A class of nonlinear filters induced by local couplings
Alessio Spantini, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), USA 2.28.0.10410:15-11:15
We introduce a class of structure-exploiting nonlinear filters for high-dimensional state-space models with intractable transition kernels. The idea…
