Colloquium of the Department of Stochastic Informatics

The colloquium features talks for a non-specialist audience in the wider research area covered by the Department of Stochastic Informatics, which includes stochastic analysis, stochastic partial differential equations, interacting random systems, ergodic theory, multidimensional nonparametric statistics, statistical signal processing, and related topics. Talks take place roughly once per month.
