Description

This book contains a selection of the improved contributions submitted by participants at the conference of the Italian Statistical Society - SIS 2022 held in Caserta 22-24 June 2022. The scientific community of Italian statistics, which gathers around the SIS, is paying particular attention to the development of statistical techniques increasingly oriented toward the processing of large data, mainly, of complex data. The main goal is to provide the analysis of the data and the interpretability of the obtained results, with a view to decision support and the reliability of the data outcomes. The aim of this volume is to show some of the most relevant contributions of statistical and data analysis methods in preserving the quality of the information to be processed, especially when it comes from different, often non-official sources; as well as in the extraction of knowledge from complex data (textual, network, unstructured and multivalue) and in the explicability of results. Data Science today represents a broad domain of knowledge development from data, where statistical and data analysis methods can make an important contribution in the different domains where data management and processing are required. This volume is addressed to researchers but also to Ph.D. and MSc students in the field of Statistics and Data Science to acquaint them with some of the most recent developments towards which statistical research is orienting, in prevalence in Italy.

Functional Analytic Methods for Heat Green Operators:
Heat Kernel Asymptotics via the Weyl-Hormander Calculus

Format: Paperback / softback, 591 pages, height x width: 235x155 mm, XVI, 564 p. 86 illus., 1 Paperback / softback
Series: Lecture Notes in Mathematics 2354
Pub. Date: 19-Oct-2024
ISBN-13: 9783031666117

Description

This monograph guides the reader to the mathematical crossroads of heat equations and differential geometry via functional analysis. Following the recent trend towards constructive methods in the theory of partial differential equations, it makes extensive use of the ideas and techniques from the WeylHörmander calculus of pseudo-differential operators to study heat Green operators through concrete calculations for the Dirichlet, Neumann, regular Robin and hypoelliptic Robin boundary conditions. Further, it provides detailed coverage of important examples and applications in elliptic and parabolic problems, illustrated with many figures and tables. A unified mathematical treatment for solving initial boundary value problems for the heat equation under general Robin boundary conditions is desirable, and leads to an extensive study of various aspects of elliptic and parabolic partial differential equations. The principal ideas are explicitly presented so that a broad spectrum of readers can easily understand the problem and the main results. The book will be of interest to readers looking for a functional analytic introduction to the meeting point of partial differential equations, differential geometry and probability.

Description

This book offers a leisurely introduction to the concepts and methods of machine learning. Readers will learn about classification trees, Bayesian learning, neural networks and deep learning, the design of experiments, and related methods. For ease of reading, technical details are avoided as far as possible, and there is a particular emphasis on applicability, interpretation, reliability and limitations of the data-analytic methods in practice. To cover the common availability and types of data in engineering, training sets consisting of independent as well as time series data are considered. To cope with the scarceness of data in industrial problems, augmentation of training sets by additional artificial data, generated from physical models, as well as the combination of machine learning and expert knowledge of engineers are discussed.

The methodological exposition is accompanied by several detailed case studies based on industrial projects covering a broad range of engineering applications from vehicle manufacturing, process engineering and design of materials to optimization of production processes based on image analysis.

The focus is on fundamental ideas, applicability and the pitfalls of machine learning in industry and science, where data are often scarce. Requiring only very basic background in statistics, the book is ideal for self-study or short courses for engineering and science students
