Date: 10-12 october 2012 Location: EURANDOM, TU/e Subject: The quality of statistical inference essentially depends on how complex we assume the underlying statistical model to be: generally, the richer the model, the worse the quality of statistical inferences. On the other hand, if the proposed model is too simple, it may not be able to provide a reasonable fit to the data. In an adaptive setup, instead of one particular model one deals with a family of models, often ordered or embedded from simple to complex. Depending on the statistical problem at hand (for instance, regression function estimation, testing hypothesis, confidence set), the general problem of adaptation is, loosely formulated, to design a so called adaptive method for solving this statistical problem which performs in multiple model situation as good as in a single model, or, if this is not possible, with the smallest loss of quality Organization:Angelika Rohde, Eduard Belitser, Geurt Jongbloed Website: http://www.eurandom.nl/events/workshops/2012/SWI_2012/index.html Website: http://www.eurandom.tue.nl/events/workshops/2011/YES%20V/index_yesv.htm

Date: 6 June 2011 Location: TU Delft Audience: The Scientific Computing Community (WSC) in the Netherlands and Flanders (Belgium) organizes each year a one day Spring Meeting to provide Ph.D Students and Postdoc’s in Scientific Computing a platform to present their research and to stimulate interaction between the various research groups active in this field Subject: The topics of the presentations reflect the wide range of research topics currently investigated by the various research groups within the WSC and cover both theoretical research in numerical analysis and scientific computing and applications. The spring meeting is a nice addition to the Woudschoten Conference on Numerical Analysis, which is also organized by the WSC, and where current research topics in scientific computing are discussed more in depth by six internationally well-known researchers Organization: Prof.dr.ir. C. Kees Vuik (TUD) & Prof.dr.ir. Jaap J.W. van der Vegt (UT)

Discontinuous Galerkin Methods in Computational Electro magnetics:  A Workshop on Recent developments In Theory and Applications

Enjoyable Lectures on the Beauty of Mathematics Date: May 09, 2011 Location: Technical University Eindhoven. De Zwarte Doos.  Audience: researchers and teachers mathematics ,administrators of TU’s, universities, TNO, GTI’s, CWI, managers of industrial R&D. Organization: Prof. Aardal, Prof. Hurink, Dr. Muntea

Date: 14 - 15 april 2011 Location: Universiteit Twente Programme Audience: This conference attracts a large part of the Dutch mathematical community Subject: Prominent mathematicians will deliver key-note speeches, and young talented mathematicians will deliver speeches in parallel sessions. In addition, there is substantial attention for the future generation of mathematicians via sessions on teaching (for this part the preferred language is Dutch) at high school and university and sessions dedicated to MSc and PhD students. There will also be an opportunity for students to present posters. The program aims at finding balance between mathematics for the beauty of mathematics and mathematics for the beauty of its applications. Thursday April 14 the Brouwer Medal is awarded to a prominent mathematician.  Organization: Department of Mathematics UT (Prof. R.J. Boucherie - Chairman, Prof. A.A. Stoorvogel - Treasures) Website: http://www.utwente.nl/ewi/nmc2011/en/
