Dear members and friends of GfKl,
We are pleased to announce the Data Science, Statistics & Visualisation 2018 (DSSV 2018). The conference will take place from 9th to 11th July at TU Wien (Austria) and is organized by the International Association for Statistical Computing (IASC-ISI).
This meeting shall create a forum to discuss recent progress and emerging ideas in these different disciplines and encourage informal contacts and discussions among all the participants. The conference welcomes contributions to practical aspects of data science, statistics and visualisation, and in particular those which are linking and integrating these subject areas. Presentations should thus be oriented towards a very wide scientific audience, and can cover topics such as machine learning and statistical learning, the visualisation and verbalization of data, big data infrastructures and analytics, interactive learning, advanced computing, and other important themes.
