DESCRIPTION:Join us for this research seminar\, part of the SQUIDS (Stati
 stics\, quantification of uncertainty\, inverse problems and data scienc
 e) seminar series.\n\nAbstract: Integral operators with positive-semidef
 inite (PSD) kernels play a central role in kernel methods\; as an import
 ant instance\, this class of operators encompasses the PSD matrices\, em
 phasising its widespreadness in Mathematics and Data Science. In this ta
 lk\, we will describe how trace-class integral operators with PSD kernel
 s can be isometrically represented as potentials\, or kernel embeddings 
 of measures\, in RKHSs with squared-modulus kernels. We will then discus
 s the parallels between the approximation of such operators or matrices 
 and the characterisation of low-maximum-mean-discrepancy configurations 
 in RKHSs with squared-modulus kernels. Finally\, we will present various
  sampling-based approximation strategies which leverage such isometric r
 epresentations.
