  • Title:
    Stochastic interactions in ecological dynamics: microscopic models, macroscopic approximations and inference
  • Abstract:
    Interactions between individuals, whether of the same or different species, drive ecological dynamics through mechanisms such as competition, predation, or mutualism. In most dynamical models, including the well-known Lotka-Volterra equations, the mathematical form of interaction rates is often chosen without justifications about the underlying biological processes. This leads to both theoretical and empirical challenges: implicit assumptions are made regarding time, space, and system scales, and it becomes difficult to estimate the parameters of these functional forms from data. In this talk, I will present an alternative approach: first, we develop stochastic microscopic models that describe individual-level interactions—for example, between predator and prey; second, we derive approximations for the distributions of interaction rates; and finally, we use these approximations to estimate parameters and perform inference from experimental data.
