Workshop and Summerschool on Random Graphs (RandNET)
Summary On August 22-30 2022 the RandNET Summer School and Workshop on Random Graphs takes place in Eindhoven, the Netherlands. The workshop will also function as the Kick-off event for the RandNET program. The main goal of this event is to facilitate new international collaborations between junior researchers. In the past two years it has been hard to set up these collaborations, so hopefully this event can make up for for a bit of that. To set up these collaborations, each afternoon…

Optimal Transport, Statistics, Machine Learning and moving in between
Part of the YES workshop series Summary Theory and Computational Aspects In the last 30 years, the theory of Optimal Transport has emerged as a fertile field of inquiry, and a diverse tool for exploring applications within and beyond mathematics, in such diverse fields as economics, meteorology, geometry, fluid mechanics, design problems, theoretical chemistry, and engineering. More recently, due to unexpected connections, for instance with Data Sciences and Statistical Inference, theoretical and computational aspects of Optimal Transport regained substantial attention…

Summary The aim of this three day bilateral conference is to discuss recent developments at the interface between probability theory and the life sciences. Probabilistic models are instrumental in the understanding and mathematical description of many biological processes. In this workshop we aim at highlighting three themes, corresponding to the three days of the conference. 1. Stochastic models of population dynamics 2. Quantitative developmental biology 3. Stochastic models in neuroscience These topics have been the subject of intense research in…

Workshop "Recent Trends in Spatial Stochastic Processes"
Summary This workshop aims to bring together international researchers that study interacting random systems embedded in space, covering both theory and applications. The focus is on new developments in a wide range of associated research areas such as point-process theory, random graphs, percolation theory, random tessellations, first-passage percolation, random walks, interlacements, dynamical random networks and their related application areas, including wireless networks, interacting biological systems and mathematical physics. We provide an interesting and relaxed program, leaving plenty of time for…

Workshop YEQT XV "Machine Learning for Stochastic Networks"
Summary The Young European Queueing Theorists (YEQT) workshop is organized annually and aims to bring together young researchers and world-leading experts. State-of-the-art research related to queueing theory, operations research, applied probability and related areas are discussed. The event provides an excellent opportunity for developing researchers to interact and exchange ideas in an informal, friendly, yet research-focused setting. The program typically consists of presentations by both senior and junior researchers, and several keynote presentations and tutorials by prominent researchers. Theme and…

Workshop: "Recent Developments in Stochastic Duality"
Summary Duality is a key technique in Markov process theory, with applications in interacting particle systems, non-equilibrium statistical physics, and stochastic population dynamics. In recent years several new developments in the theory of duality have taken place, with applications in the above three areas. Examples include the Lie-algebraic approach to duality, the use of duality for integrable systems, random processes on random graphs, and population dynamics with seed-banks. In the workshop we aim to bring together experts in these areas,…

YES Causal Inference
Summary Causal inference is at the center of research. Perhaps because of its central position in so many sciences, multiple perspectives have arisen from which causal inference is studied. Two popular ones are the potential outcomes framework and the graphical approach. In this workshop, researchers from many domains (mathematics, (bio)statistics, economics, computer science, social science,...) will look for common ground in their approaches towards causal inference. The workshop is aimed at junior researchers working in causal inference, from any domain.…

Summary Since the first workshop in 2004, the Young European Probabilists (YEP) series has spawned 17 highly successful editions on a wide range of topics. The theme of its 18th edition, will be spectra of random graphs, random matrices and related combinatorial problems. The study of matrices with random entries started in the 1950’s and has grown into an immense body of literature until today. While the initial focus was on problems in statistical physics, in recent times random matrices…

Workshop: Numerical Analysis of Stochastic Partial Differential Equations (NASPDE)
Summary The NASPDE workshop has been hosted approximately once a year since 2007. The aim of this three-day workshop is to gather leading researchers working on various aspects of numerical methods for stochastic PDEs and/or PDEs with uncertain input, as well as their applications in science and engineering. Topics to be covered range from the analysis and implementation of numerical schemes for PDEs with uncertainty to recent developments in sampling (Monte Carlo) strategies and Bayesian inverse problems, as well as…
