ESD Research Seminar by Antonio Frangioni – Professor Antonio Frangioni will summarise some of the main lines of his research in this seminar, emphasising how he is primarily driven by the desire of solving real-world, difficult optimisation problems.

ESD Research Seminar by Georgina Hall – This talk will demonstrate the usefulness of t-sos submodularity through three applications: (i) a new convex approach to submodular regression, involving minimal manual tuning; (ii) a systematic procedure to derive lower bounds on the submodularity ratio in approximate submodular maximisation, and (iii) improved difference-of-submodular decompositions for difference-of-submodular optimisation.

ESD Research Seminar by Xi Ning – This talk will study a class of the semiparametric Cox-Aalen transformation models for regression analysis.

Yan Shuo Tan (National University of Singapore) – Understanding and Overcoming the Statistical Limitations of Decision Trees

ESD Research Seminar by Xingran Chen – In this seminar, we investigate an adversarial threat termed the “Pac-Man” attack, in which a malicious node probabilistically terminates any random walk (RW) that visits it.

ESD Research Seminar by Caroline Chaux – In this talk, we will be interested in inverse problems arising in the signal and image processing field. Solving such problems imply in a fist time to formalise the direct problem by understanding the physics behind and in a second time, to solve the associated inverse problem, through a variational formulation, that is, solving an optimisation problem.

ESD Research Seminar by Can Berk Saner (aka John) – This talk examines accommodating large-scale EV penetration by managing charging and converting EVs from demanding loads into useful grid assets.

ESD Research Seminar by Thiparat Chotibut – Designing scalable quantum machine learning (QML) models with potential quantum advantage on Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum (NISQ) devices remains a major challenge.
