Symposium on Statistical Innovation in the Era of Artificial Intelligence and Data Science

该奖项支持研究生、早期职业研究人员和统计代表性不足的群体成员参加ICSA 2022应用统计研讨会：人工智能和数据科学时代的统计创新，该研讨会于2022年6月19日至6月22日在佛罗里达州盖恩斯维尔的佛罗里达大学举行。该活动是国际华人统计协会（ICSA）的官方年度会议，为更广泛的统计界提供了一个会面和交流思想的独特机会。会议的主要目标是汇集来自全国和世界各地积极从事统计学、生物统计学和数据科学及其应用的理论和方法研究的成熟和初级研究人员。会议将提供一个论坛，讨论统计理论、方法和工具的前沿发展，以从复杂和嘈杂的数据源中做出准确的推断。会议的形式包括多次全体会议、特别邀请会议、邀请会议和投稿海报。主办单位努力提高演讲者的多样性，保持健康包容的氛围。此外，还将组织一个关于指导和职业发展的特别小组讨论，特别是针对女性和来自STEM中代表性不足群体的研究人员。对于学生，会议将提供机会，如学生论文比赛和贡献海报会议。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This award supports the participation of graduate students, early-career researchers, and members of groups underrepresented in statistics in the ICSA 2022 Applied Statistics Symposium: Statistical Innovations in the Era of Artificial Intelligence and Data Science, held at the University of Florida, Gainesville, Florida, from June 19 – June 22, 2022. The event serves as the official annual meeting of the International Chinese Statistical Association (ICSA) and provides the broader statistical community a unique opportunity to meet and exchange ideas. The main objective of the conference is to bring together both well established and junior researchers from around the nation and the world who are actively pursuing theoretical and methodological research in statistics, biostatistics, and data science as well as their applications. The conference will provide a forum for discussion of cutting-edge developments in statistical theory, methods, and tools for making accurate inference from complex and noisy data sources. The format of the conference includes multiple plenary talks, special invited talks, invited sessions, and contributed posters. The organizers strive to enhance diversity of speakers and maintain a healthy inclusive atmosphere. In addition, a special panel discussion will be organized on mentoring and career development, especially geared toward women and researchers from groups underrepresented in STEM. For students, the conference will provide opportunities such as a student paper competition and contributed poster sessions.
