DESCRIPTION:Luca Schenato\, Department of Information Engineering\, Univer
 sity of Padova\nAbstract: The proliferation of large scale smart multi-age
 nt systems\, also known as Internet-of-Things\, Networked Control Systems\
 , Wireless sensor and actuator networks\, Cyber-physical Systems\, etc.\, 
 are providing us with a wealth of data with unprecedented time-space resol
 ution which can trigger the next technological revolution. However\, this 
 trend is also posing a formidable challenge\, often referred as Data Tsuna
 mi\, which requires the analysis of a large scale correlated time-series. 
 In this talk\, I will address the problem of estimating a map\, first in a
  static scenario and later in a dynamic scenarios\, based on noisy measure
 ments collected by a large number of sensors in the presence of unreliable
  communication. In particular I will explore the pros and cons of parametr
 ic and non-parametric estimation approaches and I will propose some strate
 gies that aim to merge ideas from control theory such as Gauss-Markov esti
 mators and Kalman Filtering\, and from Machine Learning such as Gaussian r
 egression and Karhunen-Loève kernel expansions and consensus.\n\nBio: Luc
 a Schenato received the Dr. Eng. degree in electrical engineering from the
  University of Padova in 1999 and the Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineeri
 ng and Computer Sciences from the UC Berkeley\, in 2003. He held a post-do
 ctoral position in 2004 and a Visiting Professor position in 2013-2014 at 
 U.C. Berkeley. Currently he is Associate Professor at the Information Engi
 neering Department at the University of Padova. His interests include netw
 orked control systems\, multi-agent systems\, cyber-physical systems\, sma
 rt grids and cooperative robotics. Luca Schenato has been awarded the 2004
  Researchers Mobility Fellowship by the Italian Ministry of Education\, Un
 iversity and Research (MIUR)\, the 2004 Marie Curie International Reintegr
 ation Grant\, the 2006 Eli Jury Award in U.C. Berkeley\, and the EUCA Euro
 pean Control Award in 2014. He served as Associate Editor for IEEE Trans. 
 on Automatic Control (2010 to 2014) and IEEE Trans. on Control of Network 
 Systems (2016-current)\, and he is Fellow of IEEE since 2017.\nURL: http:/
