Description du contenu de l'enseignement :
We shall put in practice classical models for statistical inference in a Bayesian setting, and implement computational methods. Using real data, we shall study various models such as linear regression, capture-recapture, and a hierarchical model. We shall discuss issues of model building and validation, the impact of the choice of prior, and model choice via Bayes Factors. The implementation shall use several algorithms: Markov Chain Monte Carlo, importance sampling, Approximate Bayesian Computation. The course is based on the free software R.
Practical information: Large portions of the course are devoting to students coding. Students should bring their own laptop, which must have R installed before the first session; I strongly suggest installing RStudio (free) as well.

This course aims at presenting the basics and recent developments of simulation methods used in statistics and especially in Bayesian statistics. Methods of computation, maximization and high-dimensional integration have indeed become necessary to deal with the complex models envisaged in the user disciplines of statistics, such as econometrics, finance, genetics, ecology or epidemiology (among others!). The main innovation of the last ten years is the introduction of Markovian techniques for the approximation of probability laws (and the corresponding integrals). It thus forms the central part of the course, but we will also deal with particle systems and stochastic optimization methods such as simulated annealing.

Description du contenu de l'enseignement :
Modern machine learning typically deals with high-dimensional data. The fields concerned are very varied and include genomics, image, text, time series, or even socioeconomic data where more and more unstructured features are routinely collected. As a counterpart of this tendency towards exhaustiveness, understanding these data raises challenges in terms of computational resources and human understandability. Manifold Learning refers to a family of methods aiming at reducing the dimension of data while preserving certain of its geometric and structural characteristics. It is widely used in machine learning and experimental science to compress, visualize and interpret high-dimensional data. This course will provide a global overview of the methodology of the field, while focusing on the mathematical aspects underlying the techniques used in practice.

The course focuses on modern and statistical approaches to NLP.
Natural language processing (NLP) is today present in some many applications because people communicate most everything in language : post on social media, web search, advertisement, emails and SMS, customer service exchange, language translation, etc. While NLP heavily relies on machine learning approaches and the use of large corpora, the peculiarities and diversity of language data imply dedicated models to efficiently process linguistic information and the underlying computational properties of natural languages.
Moreover, NLP is a fast evolving domain, in which cutting-edge research can nowadays be introduced in large scale applications in a couple of years.
The course focuses on modern and statistical approaches to NLP: using large corpora, statistical models for acquisition, disambiguation, parsing, understanding and translation. An important part will be dedicated to deep-learning models for NLP.
- Introduction to NLP, the main tasks, issues and peculiarities
- Sequence tagging: models and applications
- Computational Semantics
- Syntax and Parsing
- Deep Learning for NLP: introduction and basics
- Deep Learning for NLP: advanced architectures
- Deep Learning for NLP: Machine translation, a case study

How many times must one shuffle a deck of 52 cards? This course is a self-contained introduction to the modern theory of mixing times of Markov chains. It consists of a guided tour through the various methods for estimating mixing times, including couplings, spectral analysis, discrete geometry, and functional inequalities. Each of those tools is illustrated on a variety of examples from different contexts: interacting particle systems, card shuffling, random walks on groups, graphs and networks, etc. Finally, a particular attention is devoted to the celebrated cutoff phenomenon, a remarkable but still mysterious phase transition in the convergence to equilibrium of certain Markov chains.

Description du contenu de l'enseignement :
An inverse problem is a problem where the goal is to recover an unknown object (typically a vector with real coordinates, or a matrix), given a few ``measurements'' of this object, and possibly some information on its structure. In this course, we will discuss examples of such problems, motivated by applications as diverse as medical imaging, optics and machine learning. We will especially focus on the questions: which algorithms can we use to numerically solve these problems? When and how can we prove that the solutions returned by the algorithms are correct? These questions are relatively well understood for convex inverse problems, but the course will be on non-convex inverse problems, whose study is much more recent, and a very active research topic.
The course will be at the interface between real analysis, statistics and optimization. It will include theoretical and programming exercises.
Compétence à acquérir :
Understand what is a non-convex inverse problems; get some familiarity with the most classical algorithms to solve them.

Optimal transport (OT) is a fundamental mathematical theory at the interface between optimization, partial differential equations and probability. It has recently emerged as an important tool to tackle a surprisingly large range of problems in data sciences, such as shape registration in medical imaging, structured prediction problems in supervised learning and training deep generative networks.
This course will interleave the description of the mathematical theory with the recent developments of scalable numerical solvers. This will highlight the importance of recent advances in regularized approaches for OT which allow one to tackle high dimensional learning problems.
The course will feature numerical sessions using Python.
