Il existe une forte demande d'outils d'optimisation en grande dimension
appliqu�s dans
les domaines de l'apprentissage statistique et du traitement de donn�es
non-homog�nes.
Les jeux de donn�es � traiter, mais aussi les mod�les qui les
r�gissent
contiennent par
ailleurs des incertitudes dont il s'agit d'estimer et de maitriser
l'impact. L'optimisation dans
le contexte de donn�es massives, l'analyse d'incertitudes, et
l'optimisation robuste pour
minimiser leur influence, sont des probl�matiques qui apparaissent dans
plusieurs domaines
applicatifs dans lesquels le LJK est beaucoup investi. Le LJK souhaite
recruter un ma�tre de
conf�rence, qui cherche � d�velopper des aspects m�thodologiques ou
applicatifs de ces
th�matiques, transverses � plusieurs �quipes et d�partements du
laboratoire.

les ans
et a pour cadre
le magnifique village de Peyresq, perch� � 1500 m�tres d'altitude
sur un
�peron rocheux
des Alpes de Haute Provence.

La session 2013 aura pour th�me :
"Les nouvelles techniques d'optimisation : Applications en signal, images et
t�l�communications"
sous la direction scientifique de Walid Hachem (LTCI, Telecom ParisTech)

Le site de d�p�t des demandes d'inscription est ouvert, et ceci jusqu'au
4 f�vrier 2013.

10- Livre "Calculus Without Derivatives", J.-P. Penot
(source: J.-P. Penot)

Graduate Texts in Mathematics #266, Springer, New York, published last
November
(but dated 2013). You can have access to the table of contents, the
preface and a large
sample by clicking on the link:

http://www.springer.com/mathematics/analysis/book/978-1-4614-4537-1.

My aim was to present a lucid view at the present stage of nonsmooth
analysis in terms
of subdifferentials, coderivatives and geometrical notions. Unlike some
other books, I did
not rule out some approaches because of personal preferences. I
endeavoured to present
the advantages and weaknesses of each of the theories, so that the
reader can choose
the concept that seems to be the most appropriate for the problem at
hand. I think that
if there were an approach with all the expected qualities, the field
would be called smooth
rather than nonsmooth. Still I consider that there is an undeniable
unity among the
existing approaches.

Also, I believe that it is useful to present the foundations of the
field: differential calculus,
convex analysis and methods relying on functional analysis and metric
estimates. Each of
these three topics forms a chapter of the book which can serve for a
separate course.

These chapters also prepare for the introduction of important ideas such
as fuzziness and
penalization. The fact that the most general calculus rules in convex
analysis are in terms
of fuzziness or approximations clearly justifies the excruciating
importance of this character
of several subdifferentials.

Because these preliminaries form about a half of the book, in order to
provide a book with
a reasonable size, I had to sacrifice applications but the most direct
ones. I also had to cut
almost half of the references. That might be a disappointment to you
just as it has been
a painful task for me.

Please, do not hesitate to mention to me the omissions, deficiencies and
mistakes you may
detect. That will be much more useful to me (and the readers in case a
second edition occurs)
than compliments. I already observed some typos (for instance in the
exponent in
Krasnoselski's inequality and in the numbering of the partial
derivatives in the statement of
the Euler-Lagrange condition). But possible omissions, lacks of credits
are more important in
my views.
