------------------------------------------------------------------------ S.Co. 2013 COMPLEX DATA MODELING AND COMPUTATIONALLY INTENSIVE STATISTICAL METHODS FOR ESTIMATION AND PREDICTION Politecnico di Milano SEPTEMBER 9-11, 2013 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ http://mox.polimi.it/sco2013 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ CALL FOR PAPER DEADLINES - ****April 5th, 2013****: abstract submission (max 500 words); - April 30th, 2013: notification of acceptance; - June 21st, 2013: short paper submission. Online submissions at http://mox.polimi.it/sco2013 CONFERENCE The aim of the S.Co. conferences is to provide a forum for the discussion of new developments and applications of statistical models and computational methods for complex and high dimensional data. S.Co.2013 follows the S.Co. conferences held in Venice (1999), Brixen (2001), Treviso (2003), Brixen (2005) and Venice (2007), Milano (2009) and Padova (2011). As in the previous editions, the conference will consist of invited lectures, organized and contributed sessions and poster presentations. PLENARY SPEAKERS - Arnoldo Frigessi, University of Oslo - Brunero Liseo, Sapienza Università di Roma - Steve Marron, UNC-Chapel Hill - Refik O. Soyer, The George Washington University TOPICS A non exhaustive list of the subject areas covered in the conference includes: - Likelihood inference in complex models; - Bayesian models for high-dimensional complex-structured data; - Statistical methods in machine learning; - Time series and space/time modeling; - Hidden Markov models; - Risk analysis and reliability; - Environmental statistics; - Multilevel models in biostatistics; - Statistical methods for medical imaging data; - Statistical methods for health-care evaluations; - Space-dependent functional data; - Large p small n problems; - Regression models with differential regularization; - Manifold data and data over manifolds; - Statistical methods for genomic data; - Design and analysis of complex surveys; - Efficient emulators of computer experiments. COMPETITION AND BARCAMP ON "TECHNOLOGY FORESIGHT AND STATISTICS FOR THE FUTURE" http://mox.polimi.it/barcamp_sco2013/ The competition and BarCamp are organized in honor of the 150th anniversary of Politecnico di Milano. Young statisticians are challenged to envision statistical models and methods that will have an impact on the development of technology in the next 25 years, before the 175-th anniversary of Politecnico di Milano.
