Seminars

isba |

The seminars are usually held on Friday at 14h30 and 16h00, alternately with Applied statistics workshops.

  • Statistics Seminars/Actuarial Seminars

Invited speakers present their research results. Talks are usually given in English.

  • Applied Statistics workshops

This seminar focuses on problem driven statistics.
Usually, presentations in this seminar present case studies satisfying the following requirements :

  • A real problem of substantial practical interest is treated,
  • Statistics played a major role in solving the problem or in obtaining a better understanding of the situation.

Occasionally, they also concern a methodological presentation of wide general interest.
