DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Emma Seggewiss (HCM)\, Kanami Ueda\n\nThis HIM Confe
 rence is a week-long event\, which will take place within the framework of
  the Dual Trimester Program "Geometric Statistics: theory\, application\, 
 and computation".\nTrimester Program guests\, who were invited and have co
 nfirmed to be at HIM during the period of this Conference\, are eligible t
 o attend this event. Beyond this\, researchers from the HCM\, in particula
 r\, early-career researchers\, are welcome upon request.\nEveryone will be
  notified in due time about whether participation and partial financial su
 pport is possible. After being selected as participant\, you will be invit
 ed to register.\nThe application deadline to attend the Conference has bee
 n extended to August 2\, 2026\, 11:59 pm (CEST).\nScientific Organizers: 
 \n\nEzra Miller (Duke University)\nWilderich Tuschmann (Karlsruhe Institut
 e of Technology)\nZhigang Yao (National University of Singapore)\n\nSpeake
 rs (preliminary list):\n\nStephan Klaus (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut
  Oberwolfach)\nRong Ma (Harvard University)\nSteve Marron (University of N
 orth Carolina)\nWanli Qiao (George Mason University)\nMore speakers will b
 e announced soon!\n\nDescription: \nThe world is witnessing an explosion 
 in abundance of "complicated data" with geometric structure and a growing 
 need for its statistical analysis. In the last century\, substantial progr
 ess had largely focused on suitably linearizing such data and subjecting i
 t to classical statistical methods. With the advent of increased computati
 onal power\, more elaborate novel intrinsic methodology has been developed
 . This has led\, on the one hand\, to design of highly sophisticated new s
 tatistical descriptors (e.g. in persistenthomology) and\, on the other han
 d\, to discovery of non-Euclidean limiting behaviors of such descriptors. 
 These have linked geometry and statistics in an unanticipated and quite un
 precedented way. This currently evolving new field "Statistics of Data wit
 h Geometric Structure" requires intense collaboration across mathematical 
 disciplines that have been traditionally remote: statistics\, probability\
 , optimization\, and machine learning on one side\, and combinatorics\, to
 pology\, and geometry on the other side. This conference brings together s
 pecialists from the disciplines of this trimester program to discuss fun
 damental questions raised by the program and looking toward the future.  
 This meeting is the third in the ISAG series\, following ISAGI and ISAG
  II.\nTo apply for the Trimester Program\, please register as an Indico us
