25th Statistics Day in Catalonia

Several activities have been scheduled at the Faculty of Science in commemoration of World Statistics Day, a day to emphasise the fundamental role of statistics in the development of knowledge and decision-making. On 20 October the Catalan Statistics Society, together with the Mathematical Consulting Service of the UAB, is organising the "25th Statistics Day in Catalonia", focused on applied statistics and artificial intelligence. Daniel Peña, professor at the Universidad Carlos III de Madrid, will give a conference on the contribution of statistics to artificial intelligence. The awards for the “23rd Student Competition” will then be presented. Attendance is free but registration is required prior to the event.
