ICORS 2017 - Save the date (3rd - 7th July, 2017 @ the University of Wollongong, Australia)
The International Conference on Robust Statistics (ICORS) 2017 conference will take place at the University of Wollongong, Australia, on the 3rd to 7th July 2017. The aim of the ICORS conferences is to bring together researchers and practitioners interested in robust statistics, data analysis and related areas. This includes theoretical and applied statisticians as well as data analysts from other fields, and leading experts as well as junior researchers and graduate students.
Held annually since 2001, the ICORS meetings create a forum to discuss recent progress and emerging ideas in statistics and encourage informal contacts and discussions among all the participants. They also play an important role in maintaining a cohesive group of international researchers interested in robust statistics and related topics, whose interactions transcend the meetings and endure year round.
We are excited to announce our four Keynote speakers for ICORS 2017: Professor Irène Gijbels (University of Leuven), Professor Graciela Boente (University of Buenos Aires), Professor Noel Cressie (University of Wollongong) and Professor Ray Chambers (University of Wollongong).
The final day of the conference (Friday the 7th of July, 2017) will include a workshop on Robust Inference for Sample Surveys.
The conference will be a mix of invited and submitted talks and will include a session specifically for young statisticians. Registrations and abstract submissions will open on the 1st of December, 2016. Topics and speakers for special sessions will also be welcome.
