Content:

The summer school program will be the fourth of its type. It consists of a sequence of lectures taught by world-renowned experts on both foundational and emerging topics on mathematical statistics and machine learning over a period of approximately 10 days. There will be a two-day high-quality research conference in the middle of the summer school featuring presentations by established researchers and young researchers who have done outstanding recent work.

The theme of the summer school is Bayesian Analysis and Stochastic Processes. Bayesian analysis and stochastic processes form a natural and powerful combination for modelling uncertainty and making inference in complex, dynamic, and high-dimensional systems. Recent years have seen rapid developments at the intersection of these two areas, driven by advances in probabilistic modelling, efficient computation and the availability of large amounts of data. Spectacular successes have been achieved in many domains in engineering and sciences where stochastic modeling and Bayesian analysis played indispensable roles. Therefore, the proposed topics reflect both foundational significance and timely interest.
