A Competition leading to a BarCamp
TECHNOLOGY FORESIGHT AND STATISTICS FOR THE FUTURE
/
We challenge young (< 33 years) statisticians to envision statistical
models and methods that will have an impact on the development of
technology in the next 25 years, before the 175-th anniversary of
Politecnico di Milano.
Competitors should submit an essay describing their views on statistics
for technology of the future, a description of how they will present
their work of science (slides, poster, movie, artifact, etc) and their
cv to barcamp.sco2013.competition at mate.polimi.it
<mailto:barcamp.sco2013.competition at mate.polimi.it>. Group submissions
are welcome. Each group will need to nominate a coordinator and only the
coordinator's cv has to be submitted.
The authors of the 5 best proposals will be invited to participate to
the SCo2013 conference where they will receive travel support (up to 500
euros), conference registration and lodging. In the case of a group
selection, the financial support will be given to the group coordinator.
The winners of the competition will be asked to lead the main stream of
the BarCamp, within the SCo2013 meeting, sharing their ideas in progress
and stimulating new perspectives on statistics and technology. All other
competitors will be invited to present their proposals at the BarCamp.
Competition deadline: March 31st, 2013
Notification of winners: April 30th, 2013
Best regards,
