 ====  Descripion of Seminar. ====
-This seminar provides an overview of stochastic differential equations (SDEs) with a focus on their relevance in understanding diffusion models, which are considered state-of-the-art deep generative models. The seminar is scheduled for the first half of the winter term, and participants have the option to attend a follow-up seminar titled [[teaching:st23:master-seminar|Score-based Generative Models for Machine Learning (Master Seminar)]], which takes place in the second half of the winter term.

   * Review of Differential Equations: The seminar begins with a review of fundamental concepts in differential equations, with a specific emphasis on the initial value problem. It covers key results related to existence, uniqueness, and numerical analysis for integration.
-  *
+  * Mathematical notations and statistical concepts of stochastic processes: We revisit the basic mathematical notations and introduce necessary statistical concepts essential for introducing the Ito integral.
-The seminar covers a wide range of topics without delving into minute details. Instead, it aims to address the most essential aspects related to the aforementioned generative models. We start this seminar reviewing the most important results on differential equations, putting a special focus on the initial value problem. We review existence and uniqueness results as well as the numerical analysis for integration. We continue the seminar revisiting the basic mathematical notations and statistical concepts needed to introduce the Ito integrals. We derive the most important properties for the Ito calculus, as it is the Ito isometry. Having this setup, we derive the Ito formula and handle some examples and applications. We conclude this seminar studying the statistics of SDEs. We derive the Fokker-Planck-Kolmogorov equation, review the Markov and Martigale Properties of SDEs, and derive general equations for the moments of SDEs.
+  * Ito calculus: Participants will learn about Ito integrals and their main properties. Special attention is given to the Ito isometry. The seminar will include derivations, examples, and applications of Ito integrals.
+  * Ito Formula: We derive the Ito formula, providing insights into its significance and practical applications.
+  * Statistics of SDEs: The final part of the seminar focuses on the statistical aspects of SDEs. Topics include the derivation of the Fokker-Planck-Kolmogorov equation, an examination of the markov and martingale properties of SDEs, and the derivation of the equations for the moments of SDEs.
+By the end of the seminar, participants will have a better understanding of SDEs with insights in the context of diffusion models. This knowledge can be valuable for those interested in advanced topics in machine learning and mathematical modeling.
