Workshop "Algebraic statistics"

Topic
We are organizing a two-day workshop focused on algebraic statistics, primarily aimed at researchers at the PhD level and beyond. The event will offer both an introductory overview for non-specialists and a presentation of current challenges and active research directions in the field. The topics addressed in this area sit at the crossroads of multilinear algebra, algebraic geometry, combinatorics, symbolic computation, probability, and statistics. A key example is the identifiability of statistical models. In simple terms, a model is identifiable if different parameter values lead to different probability distributions. The algebraic and geometric study of this property often involves analyzing the dimension of the model (in the Zariski topology sense) or examining matroids defined by the independent columns of the model's Jacobian matrix.
