To generate good probabilistic forecasts, we must first be able to evaluate how good a forecast is. The evaluation of probabilistic forecasts focuses on two aspects of forecast performance: forecast accuracy and forecast calibration. Forecast accuracy refers to how 'close' the forecast is to the corresponding observation, which can be quantified using proper scoring rules. Forecast calibration considers whether probabilistic forecasts are trustworthy. While most scoring rules and calibration checks treat all possible outcomes equally, some outcomes are often of more interest than others when evaluating forecasts, and one could argue that these outcomes should therefore be emphasised during forecast evaluation. For example, extreme outcomes typically lead to the largest impacts on forecast users, making accurate and calibrated forecasts for these outcomes particularly valuable. In this talk, we discuss methods to focus on particular outcomes when evaluating probabilistic forecasts. We review weighted scoring rules, which allow practitioners to incorporate a weight function into conventional scoring rules when calculating forecast accuracy, and we demonstrate that the theory underlying weighted scoring rules can readily be extended to forecast calibration. Using this, we introduce methods to evaluate the calibration of probabilistic forecasts for extreme events.<br>\r\n </p>", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-03-02T09:46:57", "last_modification_date": "2026-04-13T10:35:58", "link_label": "", "link_url": "https://www.epfl.ch/schools/sb/research/math/statistics-seminars/", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "CM 1 517", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==CM%201%20517", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "Sam Allen, KIT", "organizer": "Rajita Chandak", "contact": "Maroussia Schaffner", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 2, "fr_label": "Public averti", "en_label": "Informed public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/119928/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/1/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/5/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/6/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/7/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/288/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 71457, "title": "lunch&LEARN: Bridging the gap between the math taught in first-year courses and the math used in life sciences research", "slug": "lunchlearn-bridging-the-gap-between-the-math-taugh", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/lunchlearn-bridging-the-gap-between-the-math-taugh", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32806/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32806/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32806/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-04-21", "end_date": "2026-04-21", "start_time": "12:15:00", "end_time": "13:00:00", "description": "<p>For more than two decades leading professional organizations have called for a reform of the mathematics education of biology and life sciences students.

In this talk, I will discuss the potential of Topological Data Analysis (TDA) for gait pattern classification. Unlike conventional approaches that rely on explicit detection of Gait Events (GEs) to compute Spatiotemporal Gait Parameters (SGPs), TDA characterises the global structure of gait signals directly, capturing relationships and patterns in the data without requiring GEs. This is particularly relevant in real-world settings, where GE detection can be diQicult due to heterogeneity in walking conditions and gait patterns, potentially biasing clinically relevant metrics and, consequently, decision-making.<br>\r\nWithin our department, preliminary results have shown that TDA-based features can achieve classification performance comparable to that of SGPs in fall-risk assessment. These findings suggest that topology oQers a competitive alternative for representing gait data, with the potential to better handle variability across subjects and pathological<br>\r\nconditions.<br>\r\nBuilding on these results, we plan to further extend the TDA framework in two directions. First, we aim to investigate time-aware topological methods to better capture the<br>\r\ntemporal structure of gait signals. Second, we will explore Topological Deep Learning (TDL) approaches to reduce reliance on handcrafted design choices and potentially<br>\r\nimprove classification performance. By combining the robustness of topology with datadriven representation learning, this work seeks to provide robust tools for the classification of typical and pathological gait patterns.<br>\r\n </p>", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-03-30T09:44:37", "last_modification_date": "2026-03-30T09:47:45", "link_label": "", "link_url": "", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "CM 1 517", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==CM%201%20517", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "Elena Botti, Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB)", "organizer": "Markus Kirolos", "contact": "Maroussia Schaffner", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 2, "fr_label": "Public averti", "en_label": "Informed public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/120224/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/1/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/5/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/9/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/7/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/6/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 71581, "title": "Bringing Closure to False Discovery Rate Control: A General Principle for Multiple Testing", "slug": "bringing-closure-to-false-discovery-rate-control-a", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/bringing-closure-to-false-discovery-rate-control-a", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32916/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32916/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32916/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-04-24", "end_date": "2026-04-24", "start_time": "15:15:00", "end_time": "16:15:00", "description": "<p>We present a novel necessary and sufficient principle for multiple testing methods controlling an expected loss. This principle asserts that every such multiple testing method is a special case of a general closed testing procedure based on e-values. It generalizes the Closure Principle, known to underlie all methods controlling familywise error and tail probabilities of false discovery proportions, to a large class of error rates -- in particular to the false discovery rate (FDR). By writing existing methods as special cases of this procedure, we can achieve uniform improvements, as we demonstrate for the e-Benjamini-Hochberg and the Benjamini-Yekutieli procedures, and the self-consistent method of Su (2018). We also show that methods derived using our novel e-Closure Principle generally control their error rate not just for one rejected set, but simultaneously over many, allowing post hoc flexibility for the researcher.<br>\r\nMoreover, we show that because all multiple testing methods for all error metrics are derived from the same procedure, researchers may even choose the error metric post hoc. Under certain conditions, this flexibility even extends to post hoc choice of the nominal error rate.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<br>\r\n </p>", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-04-13T13:24:48", "last_modification_date": "2026-04-13T13:27:04", "link_label": "", "link_url": "https://www.epfl.ch/schools/sb/research/math/statistics-seminars/", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "CM 1 517", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==CM%201%20517", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "Jelle Goeman, University of Leiden", "organizer": "Rajita Chandak", "contact": "Maroussia Schaffner", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 2, "fr_label": "Public averti", "en_label": "Informed public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/120359/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/1/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/6/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/7/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/288/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 71561, "title": "Cryogenic Thermometry Based on Superconducting Microwave Resonators", "slug": "cryogenic-thermometry-based-on-superconducting-m-2", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/cryogenic-thermometry-based-on-superconducting-m-2", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32898/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32898/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32898/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-06-05", "end_date": "2026-06-05", "start_time": "17:00:00", "end_time": null, "description": "<p>Thesis Directors: Prof. G.

Electronic rearrangement is also the means by which light energy is harnessed in photochemistry. The timescale for coherent electron dynamics is set by the energetic splitting of the electronic states, which in small molecular systems, is on the scale of an electron volt (eV). This sets the natural timescale for electronic motion to be few-to-sub femtosecond (fs).<br>\r\n<br>\r\nTo approach these extreme timescales, we can use short pulses of light to excite small quantum systems. For instance, the impulsive interactions between a light field and a quantum system can induce time-dependent oscillations in the charge density. Such electronic wavepacket motion (in the absence of nuclear motion) has come to be referred to as charge migration [1]. While the initial charge dynamics following impulsive excitation (or ionization) begins as purely electronic motion, this wavepacket will couple to other degrees of freedom in the system (i.e. nuclear motion or chemical dynamics) and lead to localization of the charge. The transfer of electronic charge across molecular bonds is fundamental to an understanding of charge transfer phenomena.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThe study of these fundamental phenomena requires state-of-the-art light sources, such as the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS), an X-ray free electron laser (XFEL) facility which produces high-brightness, ultrashort pulses, with wavelength continuously tunable across the x-ray regime. Schemes to provide isolated, sub-femtosecond pulses from an FEL are being explored at facilities world-wide, and recently we have demonstrated such pulses at the LCLS [2]; opening the door for time-resolved measurements of ultrafast electron dynamics on their natural timescale. In my talk, I will highlight our recent developments in probing electronic motion in small molecular systems. We have employed sub-femtosecond pulses from the XFEL to study ultrafast charge dynamics in both core-excited [3,4,5] and low-lying cationic systems [6]. We are also developing nonlinear x-ray spectroscopies [7,8] to initiate and control electron dynamics. The control of coherent electron motion represents a significant step towards achieving charge-directed reactivity [9], a grand challenge for the field of attosecond science.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n[1] Cederbaum and Zobeley 1999 Chemical Physics Letters 307 205–210<br>\r\n[2] Duris and Li et al. 2020 Nature Photonics 14 30-36<br>\r\n[3] Li and Driver et al. 2022 Science 375 285-290<br>\r\n[4] Driver et al. 2024 Nature 632 762-767 (2024)<br>\r\n[5] Wang and Driver et al.
