[Statlist] Conference: Recent Developments in Statistical Multiscale Methods

[Thomas Rippl]

First Announcement: Conference on

       RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN STATISTICAL MULTISCALE METHODS

               July 16 - 18 2012
            University of Göttingen, Germany

Statistical Multiscale Methods have been developed rapidly during the 
last decades and provide nowadays an indispensable tool for a variety of 
applications.

The aim of this workshop is to provide an up to date overview of the 
different aspects of this emerging field. This includes on the one hand 
a rigorous mathematical treatment of statistical multiscale estimators 
such as risk bound analysis, deviation inequalities and their 
statistical applications, e.g. the construction of confidence sets. On 
the other hand algorithmic and computational issues will be discussed as 
well, and their performance in various areas of applications, ranging 
from signal processing, time series analysis and financial statistics to 
computational genetics and bio-imaging.

Speakers include:

* Laurent Cavalier, Aix-Marseille
* Markus Haltmeier, MPI for Biophysical Chemistry Goettingen
* Marc Hoffmann, Paris IV
* Maarten Jansen, Leuven
* Zakhar Kabluchko, Ulm
* Gerard Kerkyacharian, Paris VI
