MATH-487: Topics in stochastic analysisThis course offers an introduction to topics in stochastic analysis, oriented about theory of multi-scale stochastic dynamics. We shall learn the fundamental ideas, relevant techniques, and in general
CS-455: Topics in theoretical computer scienceThe students gain an in-depth knowledge of several current and emerging areas of theoretical computer science. The course familiarizes them with advanced techniques, and develops an understanding of f
PHYS-467: Machine learning for physicistsMachine learning and data analysis are becoming increasingly central in sciences including physics. In this course, fundamental principles and methods of machine learning will be introduced and practi
PHYS-512: Statistical physics of computationThe students understand tools from the statistical physics of disordered systems, and apply them to study computational and statistical problems in graph theory, discrete optimisation, inference and m
CS-450: Algorithms IIA first graduate course in algorithms, this course assumes minimal background, but moves rapidly. The objective is to learn the main techniques of algorithm analysis and design, while building a reper
MATH-602: Inference on graphsThe class covers topics related to statistical inference and algorithms on graphs: basic random graphs concepts, thresholds, subgraph containment (planted clique), connectivity, broadcasting on trees,
MATH-467: Probabilistic methods in combinatoricsThe 'probabilistic method' is a fundamental tool in combinatorics. The basic idea is as follows: to prove that an object (for example, graph) with certain properties exists, it suffices to prove that
MATH-455: Combinatorial statisticsThe class will cover statistical models and statistical learning problems involving discrete structures. It starts with an overview of basic random graphs and discrete probability results. It then cov
