SECOND ANNOUNCEMENT
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.2009 follows the S.Co. conferences held in Venice (1999), Brixen (2001), Treviso (2003), Brixen (2005) and Venice (2007); as in the previous editions, the conference will consist of invited lectures, organized and contributed sessions and poster presentations.
PLENARY SPEAKERS
- Michael Jordan, University of California Berkeley
- James O.Ramsay, McGill University
- Paolo Vidoni, Universita' di Udine
- Alastair Young, Imperial College London
TOPICS
A non exhaustive list of the subject areas covered in the conference includes:
- Dynamic models: computational methods and applications;
- Computational methods and Bayesian statistics;
- Design and analysis of complex surveys;
- Statistical methods in machine learning;
- Functional data analysis;
- Methods for multidimensional analysis of complex data;
- Time series and spatial modeling;
- Statistical methods for technology;
- Likelihood inference in complex models.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR AUTHORS
A one page, text only, abstract should be submitted by April 4th, 2009 through the conference website (
http://mox.polimi.it/sco2009). The Scientific Committee will notify to authors the acceptance of the paper by April 18th, 2009. After acceptance, a short paper of at most
6 pages should be submitted through the conference website by June 20th, 2009.
DEADLINES
- April 4th, 2009: abstract submission;
- April 18th, 2009: notification of acceptance;
- June 20th, 2009: short paper submission.
CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS
All accepted short papers will be published in the conference proceedings; during the conference the proceedings will be distributed to the participants.
COLLECTIVE BOOK
Pietro Mantovan and Piercesare Secchi are planning to publish a collective book with about 15-20 long papers (15 pages) on the best advances on the topics object of the conference. The book will appear on the series Contribution to Statistics published by Springer (
http://www.springer.com/series/2912).
Contributions to the book are open to all researchers, not only those coming to the conference: detailed instructions for prospective authors will soon be available on the conference web site.
Best regards,
Piercesare Secchi
