DESCRIPTION:The seminar will focus on representing probability measures vi
 a mean elements in characteristic reproducing Hilbert spaces.\n\nIn partic
 ular I plan to talk about:\n* RKHS's and characteristic kernels in general
 \n* homogeneity and independence testing using RKHSs\n* density estimation
  via kernel moment matching\n\nRecommended reading:\n* Gretton et al: A Ke
