Title: Variational Bayes for high-dimensional linear and logistic regression
Abstract: Bayesian methods are becoming increasingly popular in high- and infinite dimensional models. However, standard, MCMC based methods are known to scale badly with the sample size and number of parameters in complex models. Therefore, in practice often variational algorithms are used to approximate the posterior distribution. These methods up to recently were black box procedures with very limited theoretical underpinning. In this talk we discuss variational Bayes methods for the high-dimensional linear and logistic regression models, derive theoretical frequentist statistical guarantees for them and investigate algorithmic aspects through numerical analysis. The talk is based on a joint work with Kolyan Ray and Gabriel Clara.

IFORS 2023 (10-14 July 2023, Santiago, Chile, https://ifors2023.com/)
The 23rd Conference of the International Federation of Operational Research Societies (IFORS) will take place in Santiago, Chile, in summer 2023. We are excited to resume on-site IFORS conferences. As part of the Cluster «Combinatorial Optimization» the Session «Discrete-continuous or stochastic optimization and control in transportation and design (space-time)» aims to engage those involved or interested in OR, MS and Analytics for discrete-continuous and stochastic optimization and control experiences, insights and future plans, related to outer and inner space-time design and research, shift and travel. This ranges from OR challenges in transportation, supply chain and inventory management to OR methods in cognitive sciences and neuroscience.
You are cordially welcome to submit your abstract here:
