Aims

Participants in this course will learn about applying statistical thinking in real life problems and about recent statistical advances with immediate practical potential. This seminar publicly announced offers to a public of applied statisticians a place to meet and to present and discuss their work. It gives the opportunity to the students to open their mind to various application domains of statistics.

Main themes

Each seminar (1 hour) is presented by a different speaker coming from a private or public company or from universities. The themes can be applications of statistical tools to various application domains, tutorials on recent statistical domains or methodological aspects of applied statistics and statistical consulting.
The presentations are more focused on the methodological aspects and main results than on the mathematical details of the discussed problems.
