SUMMARY:Seminar in Numerical Analysis: Björn Sprungk (TU Freiberg) 
DESCRIPTION:In this talk we consider the Bayesian approach to inverse probl
 ems which allows for uncertainty quantification for the data-driven recons
 truction of the ground truth. After a brief dicussion of the well-posednes
 s and local Lipschitz stability of Bayesian inverse problems\, we focus on
  Markov chain Monte Carlo methods for sampling and integration with respec
 t to the posterior probability distribution. Here we present our contribut
 ions to Metropolis-Hastings algorithms in function spaces\, discuss conve
 rgence in terms of geometric ergodicity and present numerical experiments 
 which show a dimension-indepedent performance which is\, moreover\, robust
  to the level of observational noise in the data. In the last part of the 
 talk we present recent results of combining Metropolis-Hastings with inter
 acting particle sampling methods based on Euler-Maruyama discretizations o
 f stochastic differential equations of McKean-Vlasov type.\\r\\n\\r\\nFor
