Partial differential equations (PDEs) are nowadays an essential mathematical tool in the study and understanding of physical and biological phenomena. Their great complexity often makes them impossible to solve analytically; hence the need for numerical resolution methods.

This course is dedicated to the introduction of PDEs, then to their resolution using well-known numerical schemes such as finite difference and finite volume methods. A more analytical part, necessary for the introduction of finite volume methods, will be devoted to the analytical resolution of scalar conservation laws. Four programming practical exercises will illustrate the scientific computing tools learnt in class with simple examples.

The construction of solutions to partial differential equations (PDEs) and the theoretical study of their qualitative behavior is essentially based on the use of analytical results, and in particular functional analysis. This course introduces the first important tools for solving PDEs from analytical or geometrical points of view. These tools will be put to use in the study of a few examples of PDEs representative of major classes of equations.

This course is a continuation of the optimization course given in the second semester of L3.

After a review of results and numerical methods for first- and second-order optimization problems, unconstrained and constrained by equality and inequality, the course focuses on issues of current interest in industrial optimization, in particular robust, multicriteria optimization in the presence of uncertainty.

The course then illustrates the role of optimization in the main machine learning algorithms. These issues are illustrated by examples of classification and regression problems in supervised learning. These examples provide an opportunity to discuss metrics and procedures for evaluating learning, validation and inference (crossfold, overfitting, etc.).

The course introduces the different classes of learning: unsupervised, supervised, transfer, reinforcement, incremental, etc.

Database management issues are addressed: generation, imputation, visualization, slicing.

The course introduces the links between transfer learning and numerical simulation to address issues such as synthetic database generation, imputation, non-intrusive prediction, rapid inference and more.

The course includes a significant number of ongoing IT projects. All sessions take place in a computerized environment, enabling immediate implementation of theoretical elements.

This course is a continuation of the optimization course in the second semester of L3 Mathematics and the optimization and machine learning course in M1 MANU. The course builds on the ingredients given in the other MANU master's modules in PDE analysis and numerical simulation.

After a reminder of the results and numerical methods for numerical simulation of PDEs on adaptive meshes, a posteriori error estimation results, and supervised learning methods from M1, the course looks at the generation of quality databases and their completion and certification thanks to numerical simulation certified by error checking.

This question is fundamental to the certified use of machine learning in industry. Indeed, the accuracy of mathematical learning during inference is strongly conditioned by the quality of the database.

The course includes a significant number of ongoing IT projects. All sessions take place in a computerized environment, enabling immediate implementation of theoretical elements.

We study inverse problems, emphasizing the notion of a "well-posed problem".

Inverse problems are first presented in finite dimension (notion of conditioning, singular values, etc.), then in infinite dimension (problem stability, regularization, pseudo-inverse, etc.).

Secondly, we review the properties of the Fourier transform and the convolution operation in Lp spaces and their usual subspaces. We examine how these two operations lead to problems that are well or badly posed. For convolution, in particular, the notions of "filter" and "deconvolution" are discussed in the context of signal and image analysis.

Finally, we apply these concepts to the study and inversion of the Radon transform, or related transforms, derived from medical imaging techniques.

The first part of this course deals with complements to probability theory: conditional expectation, Gaussian vectors. The second part presents one of the main families of discrete-time stochastic processes, Markov chains. These are sequences of dependent random variables, whose dependency relationship is relatively simple, since each variable depends only on the preceding one. They are also a very powerful modeling tool. We will study the main properties of these processes, as well as their behavior in long time and the estimation of their parameters.

Statistical data are becoming ever more massive. Before modeling them, it is essential to explore them and reduce their dimensions, losing as little information as possible. This is the aim of this course in multidimensional exploratory statistics. Methodologically, the tools used are essentially those of Euclidean geometry. Statistical problems and notions will therefore be translated into the language of Euclidean geometry before being treated in this framework. The two families of exploratory methods covered in this course are:

1) automatic classification methods, which group observations into classes and reduce the disparity between observations to the disparity between these classes;

2) component analysis methods, which search for the main directions of disparity between observations and provide images of this disparity that can be interpreted in reduced dimensions.

The language used is Python, but some elements of bash and git will also be useful.
A particular emphasis will be placed on data processing and visualization at the heart of the course.
We will focus mainly on basic programming concepts, as well as the discovery of Python's scientific libraries, including "numpy, scipy, pandas, matplotlib, seaborn".
Beyond knowledge of these fundamental packages, we will introduce modern practices for code: (unit) testing, version control (git), automatic documentation generation, etc.

The importance of statistical science in the process of scientific discovery and industrial advancement is that it enables the formulation of inferences concerning phenomena of interest, to which risks of error or degrees of confidence can be associated. The calculation of these risks of error is based on probability theory, but the principles and methods for associating these risks with inferences constitute a theoretical corpus that serves as the basis for all statistical methodologies.

This module is intended to provide a fairly comprehensive presentation of these basic principles and of the mathematical tools, results and theorems used in inferential statistics. It covers the notions of point and interval estimation, hypothesis testing and fundamental concepts such as exponential families, the maximum likelihood principle and the use of p-value.
To implement certain applications, we will present the tools adapted from R software.

Statistical modeling is based on the two fundamental notions of information (extracted from the data) and decision (made on the basis of the data). This course introduces the theoretical formalization of these two notions. It is therefore logically placed at the beginning of the curriculum, with many other courses using its notions and results later on.

This course is an introduction to stochastic control. In this type of
problem, we seek to modify the natural trajectory of a process in order to achieve a certain
objective. We will consider discrete-time decisional Markov processes, where we can
choose an action at each time step. We will see how to formalize stochastic control problems in this framework, and how to solve them theoretically and numerically.

This introductory course on time series, i.e. a series of observations made over time, is an indispensable toolbox for processing this type of data, which is frequently encountered in a wide range of applications: the concentration of a pollutant in the air over time, blood glucose levels over time, sales of a product in a supermarket, stock market prices, etc. This course covers both the mathematical presentation of the concepts and the more technical aspects of implementing the methods. The course covers both the mathematical presentation of the concepts and the more technical aspects of implementing the methods. Numerical illustrations are provided using R software.

Non-parametric methods are important in many statistical applications, as they allow us to move away from conventional approaches that require the specification of valid statistical models. Establishing the validity of such a model is a complex undertaking.

Non-parametric methods circumvent this problem by transforming data into ranks and conditioning on certain quantities derived from the observed configuration of these ranks. The statistics thus constructed are independent of the distribution of the raw data, enabling the construction of statistical inference procedures free from the model underlying the data. Moreover, the loss of statistical efficiency is minimal.

This course is a fairly comprehensive presentation of non-parametric methods. It follows on from a first introductory course on parametric inferential methods, adapting and developing the theory of several advanced concepts such as conditional testing, comparative power of tests (efficiency measures) and the notion of "effect size". It focuses on the practical application of these methodologies, with an overview of the main R commands and their uses.

The linear model is both a simple and a very rich tool, forming the basis of many statistical methods. Its mastery and understanding are very useful both from a practical point of view, for fine-tuning the analysis of certain data sets, and from a conceptual point of view, for understanding the theoretical foundations of more advanced learning methods, including current ones.

This course provides an introduction to the linear model of simple and multiple regression, with quantitative or qualitative variables. It presents the formal derivation and theoretical study of least squares and maximum likelihood estimators in the Gaussian case. It also provides validation and variable selection tools to study model limitations. Finally, it introduces the practical use of this tool on simple data sets using R software.

This course introduces the general framework of linear models in which we seek to express a response variable as a function of a linear combination of predictors. By assuming both a specific relationship between the mean response and the predictors (link function), as well as a specific distribution of the random variation of the response around its mean, it is possible to represent binary data (e.g. presence/absence, mortality/survival) or count data (e.g. number of individuals, number of species). Thanks to this general framework, non-normally distributed variables can be modeled. In particular, the use and interpretation of logistic, binomial and Poisson regression models will be detailed.

This course provides an introduction to parametric Bayesian statistics. After a presentation of the Bayesian paradigm, the cases of point and ensemble estimation will be considered, followed by the methodology of Bayesian model selection. Binomial, Gaussian and linear models will serve as illustrations for the previous topics.

For complex models, the problems of model estimation and selection in the Bayesian context require the use of advanced integral approximation tools. The second part of the course will therefore focus on Monte Carlo methods and Markov Chain Monte Carlo algorithms.

The size of statistical data is constantly increasing, and so is the richness of the description of statistical units. However, classical linear statistical modeling becomes invalid in high dimensions, i.e. when the number of variables exceeds the number of statistical units.

The lifespan of an individual in biostatistics, or of a component in reliability analysis, is a quantity whose statistical analysis differs from the usual data. On the one hand, it leads to the consideration of quantities such as the hazard function, the residual mean life time, etc., which are of less interest in other fields of statistics. On the other hand, it often involves a censoring mechanism, as the data are observed incompletely due to the length of the experiments in relation to the time we want to allocate to them.

The aim of this module is to present the basics of survival analysis. The rationale and main mechanisms of data censoring are discussed. Two main types of statistical approach are presented: the parametric approach, which, despite its limitations, is often favored by users because "the parameters speak for themselves", and the non-parametric approach, which supports and complements parametric analyses, giving them greater flexibility and depth when data are plentiful. The module also presents various models (Cox model, accelerated failure rate, etc.) linking survival to explanatory factors, enabling us to determine which factors may have an impact on survival. This information is particularly useful in a health context, as it can be used to personalize survival projections for an individual.

These methods will be implemented using R software.
