Please join us for this year's LTCC Christmas Lecture “How to Analyse Strongly Non-Euclidean Observations”, which will take place on Monday 9th December at 6pm.
We are delighted to have Professor Sofia Olhede from EPFL, Switzerland as our speaker. A reception and refreshments will follow the lecture.
Abstract:
Networks describe relationships between entities. If more than one type of relationship is possible, our observations become a multiplex network, recording multiple types of relationships between entities. This could be interactions at different times, or different types of interactions. I will discuss how the notion of a decorated graph limit can simplify such observations and define measures of the whole system of possible interactions, that can be estimated from observed interactions. I will discuss how statistics, probability, combinatorics and information theory all provide different perspectives on this question of how to understand non-Euclidean observations and how we can learn across disciplinary boundaries.
We look forward to seeing you there.
Please confirm your attendance by midday 5th December 2024 responding to office@ltcc.ac.uk .
