STOCHASTICA – Stochastic Differential Equations: Computation, Inference, Applications
Stochastické diferenciálne rovnice: výpočty, inferencia, aplikácie
Program: COST
Duration: 26.9.2025 – 25.9.2029
Project leader: MSc. Krakovská Hana
Annotation: Stochastic differential equations (SDEs) are used to model phenomena under the influence of random noise and uncertainty and are useful in an extraordinary range of applications. In health, SDE models of tumour growth can help medical practitioners design interventions. In clean energy, they can model airflow around wind turbine blades, and enable multiscale modelling of entire wind farms and energy grids by representing small scale effects as noise. In computing, SDEs can be used to develop training algorithms for deep learning algorithms.The development and effective deployment of stochastic models requires input from a broad range of specialist experts: applied modellers, theoretical mathematicians, numerical analysts, and statisticians, all guided by the needs of stakeholders in academia and industry. However, in the current European research landscape, there is no large scale framework enabling these communities to interact, and opportunities for goal-driven research progress that is informed by all relevant expertise are being lost.Under the umbrella of computational stochastics, STOCHASTICA will bring together members of all of these communities to create a network of researchers with common goals informed by academic and industry partners. The work of the Action will generate a computational toolbox including a database of test problems, implementation guidance, and accessible descriptions of mathematical quality that empower non-specialist experts to make appropriate and routine use of stochastic models in applications such as natural resource management, renewable energy transmission, medical and public health applications including epidemiology and models of tumour growth.
