Crash Course on FDA and ML of complex data 17 - 19. April 2024

In an era of explosive growth in complex data, our course is your bridge to a deeper understanding of Functional Data Analysis (FDA) and Machine Learning (ML). The main challenge today isn't data availability but rather our ability to interpret it. Join our growing community of professionals applying ML to tackle complex data challenges. This crash course highlights key developments at the intersection of FDA and ML, with a focus on handling complex functional data. Moreover, as a student, you have the opportunity to earn 3 ECTS credits by submitting a report at the end of the workshop.

Nonparametric Econometrics

The goal of this summer course is to enhance students' understanding and skills in applied nonparametric econometrics. Initially, the course aims to provide a comprehensive foundation in nonparametric statistical methods. This is important for addressing the disconnect between economics and statistics in this field. This is a summer course that takes place between the 24th and 28th of June at Blekinge tekniska högskola.

Advanced Bayesian Learning, 7.5 credits

This is an advanced course in Bayesian statistics for PhD students in statistics, computer science, the engineering sciences and other related fields.
The course is divided into 4 contemporary topics in Bayesian analysis, and the choice of topics can vary from year to year depending on the research frontier. Students can pick and choose among the topics and will be given 2 credits for each selected topic.
The planned topics for the current year are:

1. Gaussian Processes with Applications
2. Bayesian Nonparametrics
3. Variational Inference

Advanced Computational Statistics

This course focuses on computational methods for optimisation, simulation and integration needed in statistics. The optimisation part discusses gradient based, stochastic gradient based, and gradient free methods. Further, constrained optimisation will be a course topic. We will discuss techniques to simulate efficiently for solving statistical problems. The course will start on March 16; course homepage (with full schedule): http://www.adoptdesign.de/frankmillereu/adcompstat2023.html.

Statistical Climatology

Course description

The course will consist of two or three cases, i.e., scientific questions that we seek to answer. Scientific background material, in the form of links, summary texts, and lectures, will be provided to aid the analysis. Technical lectures (detailed or overviews) are available upon request. The class will be divided into groups, each of which do their own analysis. The intent is to have each group contain a broad spectrum of expertise.
