[Dottorcomp] Insalate di Matematica - A. Ley 14/12/22

[Mbs Insalate Di Matematica]

Dear all,

As part of the series of seminars "Insalate di Matematica", Armand Ley
(Université de Haute-Alsace) will give a talk.
The speaker will deliver the talk *online* via Webex platform (see below
for more information) and the meeting will be *streamed also in room 3014*, at
the building U5-Ratio, Università degli Studi di Milano Bicocca.

Here the details:

*Date and time*: 14th of November 2022, 4:00 pm (CET)

*Title*: "A brief introduction to entropic optimal transport"

*Abstract*: In this talk, staying in the discrete setting, we will first
introduce the Monge-Kantorovitch problem, which is the central problem in
optimal transport. After this, we will say a few words about a functional
called ”entropy” (with a generalized version of it) and present its
properties. This will then allow us to discuss an entropically penalized
version of the Monge-Kantorovitch problem and provide some numerical
illustrations of the results/interpretations presented hereafter. I will
finally discuss the issues arising when we try to generalize the presented
results in the non-discrete setting.

*Keywords*: Optimal transport - Entropy - Sinkhorn algorithm - Convergence
in probability spaces

*Information to attend in room 3014*
The seminar will take place in room 3014, at the building U5-Ratio,
Università degli Studi di Milano Bicocca.

*Information to attend online*
The seminar will be streamed via Webex platform at the following link:
