Summer School Series on Mathematical Statistics and Machine Learning

Time:08:00:24/07/2024 to 17:00:30/07/2024

Venue/Location: Vietnam Institute for Advanced Study in Mathematics (VIASM), Hanoi

1. Objective: 

  • To introduce researchers and advanced students in Vietnam to modern and foundational topics in mathematical statistics and machine learning. This is achieved by having world-leading experts to come and teach on a well-designed sequence of lectures. Each lecturer will start from foundational concepts and be given time to go deeper into some topics of modern research. 
  • The conference will feature talks from domestic and international researchers. After the lectures, the participants are expected to start appreciating the technical talks given at the conference.
  • To enhance the interactions between domestic students and researchers to the broader community of top-notch statistics and machine learning researchers through lectures and mid-program activities. Domestic researchers interested in collaborative opportunities and students interested in graduate studies abroad will find such interactions useful.

2. Expected participants: 

Researchers and faculty in Vietnamese universities, as well as selected university students in mathematics, data science, computer science, and related fields.
