Stochastic differential equations with R school
At the Division of Statistics and Machine Learning, Department of Computer and Information Science, Linköping University, 14th-19th May 2020 we will be hosting a school concerning stochastic differential equations and the YUIMA R package (Simulation and Inference for SDEs and Other Stochastic Processes, https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/yuima/index.html). The lectures will be given by members of the YUIMA team ( https://yuimaproject.com/ ). The nearly final program of the school is :
Dates (fixed and final): May 14 (Thu), May 15 (Fri), May 18 (Mon), May 19 (Tue) in 2020
The 5th YUIMA Conference will be held in parallel.
