Leeds Statistics and Probability Seminar

This seminar presents the statistics research group from the University of Leeds PGRs’ research and academic interests in a professional but informal setting; everyone (from undergrads to professors) is welcome to drop by and listen to the presentations.

February 10th Regression Analysis for Directional Data Norah Almasoud In this project, the aim is to build a regression model to predict the effect of linear explanatory variables on a circular response variable. Circular regressions are classified into two groups based on the data type. Read more...

October 14th An Euler-Maruyama scheme for SDEs with distributional drift Luis Mario Chaparro Jaquez The Euler-Maruyama scheme is a widely used numerical method to compute approximations of the solutions to SDEs. When the coefficients have sufficient regularity the strong convergence rate is known to be $1/2$. Read more...
