Bayesian Change Point Detection In Segmented Multi-Group Autoregressive Moving-Average Data For The Study Of COVID-19 In Wisconsin Mr. Russell Latterman University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Changepoint detection involves the discovery of abrupt fluctuations in population dynamics over time. We take a Bayesian …

Contraction Rates For McKean-Vlassov Stochastic Differential Equations Mr. Dan Noelck University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee This work focuses on the contraction rates for McKean-Vlasov stochastic differential equations (SDEs), McKean-Vlasov Stochastic differential delay equations (SDDEs), and path dependent McKean-Vlasov stochastic differential equations. Under …
