The French-German graduate school Potsdam-Toulouse called Stochastic processes and statistical machine learning is funded by the French-German University  for the period  2018-2021. It involves mathematicians of both universities. Aims of this binational doctoral structure named CDFA 01-18 :

- Integration of doctoral students into a common larger research programm

- Scientific education by specialized serial lectures, short term and long term visits of guest scientists, workshops

- Increase of the mobility of young researchers (a typically 6-12 month's stay at the foreign partner university)

- Possibility of novel international collaborations

- Possibility of joint PhD-supervisions by two scientific teams from distinct countries.

The concerned mathematics research domains are the Probability Theory - in particular the field of stochastic processes- and  the mathematical statistics - inparticular the field of Statistical Learning.

French speaker: Prof. Patrick Cattiaux

German speaker: Prof. Sylvie Roelly

Workshop "Stochastic processes and statistical machine learning I"

Workshop "Stochastic processes and statistical machine learning II"

between the Institute of Mathematics of University Potsdam and the Institute of Mathematics at the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, funded by the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation. This alumni programme allows sponsorship by the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation of long-term research collaborations between academics in Germany and abroad.

This Research Group Linkage provides funding mainly for reciprocal research visits and for two specialist conferences. The first one was

Workshop "Singular diffusions: analytic and stochastic approaches I"

- DAAD Leonhard-Euler Program (2012-2014).

Cooperation with University T. Shevchenko in Kyiv.

2012-2013: Project ID 55518603 Analyse feiner Eigenschaften zufälliger Prozesse.

2013-2014: Project  ID 57044593 Feine Eigenschaften stochastischer Prozesse.

In that framework organisation of two minicourses done in Berlin/Potsdam from Prof. Alexei Kulik (March 2013) entitled "Ergodic rates for Markov chains and processes" and from Prof. Andrey Pilipenko (December 2013) entitled "Stochastic differentional equations with reflection", published by Potsdam University Press.

The following Ukrainian students obtained founds to visit Potsdam University: Daryna Soboleva, Tetiana Kosenkova, Taras Tymoshkevych, Vitalii Senin and Yurii Ganychenko.

- Agreement on research, educational and cultural cooperation (2013-2016) between the Faculty of Science of the University of Potsdam (Germany) and the Mechanics and Mathematics Faculty of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv (Ukraine)

- DAAD Research Grant for young academics  (2016-2017)
