DESCRIPTION:Chiranjib Mukherjee  (Muester)\n\nAbstract:\nWe consider stat
 istical and computation methods to infer trajectories of a stochastic proc
 ess from snapshots of its temporal marginals. This problem arises for inst
 ance in the analysis of single cell RNA-sequencing data. The goal of these
  lectures is to present and understand the estimator proposed by [Lavenant
  et al. 2020] which searches for the diffusion process that fits the obser
 vations with minimal entropy relative to a Wiener process. This estimator 
 comes with consistency guarantees—for a suitable class of ground truth p
 rocesses—and lends itself to computational methods with global optimalit
 y guarantees. Its analysis is the occasion to review important tools from 
 entropic optimal transport — aka the Schrödinger bridge problem.\n \n
