STATISTICS SEMINARS @ COLLEGIO CARLO ALBERTO


Venerdì 27 Aprile 2018, alle ore 12:00, presso il nuovo edificio del Collegio Carlo Alberto, in Piazza Arbarello 8, Torino, si terrà il seguente seminario:

Theodore KYPRAIOS (University of Nottingham)

LATENT BRANCHING TREES: MODELLING AND BAYESIAN COMPUTATION

In this talk a novel class of semi-parametric time series models will be
presented, for which we can specify in advance the marginal distribution
of the observations and then build the dependence structure of the
observations around them by introducing an underlying stochastic process
termed as 'latent branching tree'. It will be demonstrated how can we
draw Bayesian inference for the model parameters using Markov Chain
Monte Carlo methods as well as Approximate Bayesian Computation
methodology. Finally a real dataset on genome scheme data will be fitted
to this model and we will also discuss how this kind of models can be
in other settings.

------------------------------------------------


Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare.
Il seminario è organizzato dalla "de Castro" Statistics Initiative (www.carloalberto.org/stats <http://www.carloalberto.org/stats>) in collaborazione con il Collegio Carlo Alberto.

Cordiali saluti, 
Matteo Ruggiero
