Title: Measuring edge importance for random processes on graphs
Speaker: Deena Schmidt (Postdoctoral Scholar, Case Western Reserve University)
Abstract: Many neural systems can be represented as a stochastic process on a graph. Recently, Schmandt and Galan introduced the "stochastic shielding approximation" as a fast, accurate method for generating approximate sample...

Title: Stochastic Modeling of Darwinian Evolution in a Chemostat
Speaker: Sylvie Méléard (École polytechnique)
Abstract: We are interested in modeling the Darwinian evolution
resulting from the interplay of phenotypic variation and natural
selection through ecological interactions, in the specific scales of
the biological framework of adaptive dynamics. We consider...
