dissemination of concepts, numerical methods, algorithms, computational and
applied results. CLADAG organizes a biennial international scientific
meeting, schools related to classification and data analysis, publishes a
newsletter, and cooperates with other member societies of the IFCS in the
organization of their conferences.



This year’s conference will address, in particular, young statisticians,

Springer in the series ‘Studies in Classification, Data Analysis and
Knowledge Organization’.
