Eric Moulines from Ecole Polytechnique will be visiting the Heilbronn Institute of Mathematical Research as a Data Science Visitor from 27 January- 31 January. He will present a mini-series of lectures which will give an introduction to convex optimization and its applications in statistical learning.
Professor Moulines will also be involved in the Heilbronn Institute’s Hypocoercivity Workshop, taking place in March. His contribution will work towards the aim of the workshop to bring together researchers from different communities with an interest in hypocoercivity ideas and techniques at a time where they find their way into new application areas, leading to new questions and challenges.
