NEWS: the following permanent positions are expected to open at IMT in 2024:
Full Professor ("Professeur des Universités") at Toulouse 2 University in “Statistics, Statistical Learning”
Full Professor ("Professeur des Universités") at INSA in “Statistics, Modeling and scientific computing”
Head of the team : Pierre Neuvial. Permanent members.
The scientific activity of the team is based on various themes in applied mathematics. We can distinguish the following main themes (naturally overlapping):
mathematical statistics: processes, distances and Wasserstein spaces, parametric, semi-parametric and non-parametric estimation, high-dimensional statistics, survival, extremes, mixture models, test theory and multiple tests, separation rates, functional data analysis;
statistical learning: sequential learning, massive data learning, Bayesian learning, deep learning, fairness (algorithm bias, data confidentiality), computational aspects (stochastic optimization, Monte Carlo sampling), computer experiments;
optimization: shape optimization, optimal transport, surface representation, image processing, inverse problems, optimal control, numerical optimization;
statistics for industry, biology and health (genomics, biostatistics, epidemiology): sensitivity analysis, detection of atypical regions, detection of breaks, supervised and unsupervised classification, remote sensing. Contributions cover modeling, inference, as well as methodological, algorithmic and software developments.
Interactions :
Many members of the team interact with other IMT teams, and more broadly with the Toulouse research ecosystem, either through ad hoc or more structured collaborations, notably via
Team Life :
The Statistics and Optimization seminar takes place every Tuesday at 11:15 am, room Katherine Johnson.
