Description du contenu de l'enseignement

Course Presentation Neural Networks for Stochastic Modeling explores how deep learning techniques can be used to analyze and estimate stochastic processes. The course introduces statistical learning fundamentals, then focuses on neural network architectures and training procedures. Finally, we apply these methods to estimate stochastic differential models through both theoretical analysis and hands-on implementation.
