About the conferences

The International Conference on Robust Statistics (ICORS) and Data Science, Statistics & Visualisation (DSSV) are a joint conference aimed to bring together researchers and practitioners interested in the interplay of robust statistics, data analysis, computer science, and visualization, and to build bridges between these fields for interdisciplinary research. This includes theoretical and applied statisticians as well as data analysts from other fields, and leading experts as well as junior researchers and graduate students. This joint conference 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. They also play an important role in maintaining a cohesive group of international researchers interested in robust statistics and related topics, whose interactions transcend the meetings and endure year round.

ICORS has been an annual international conference since 2001. The previous ICORS meetings were held in Vorau, Austria (2001), Vancouver, Canada (2002), Antwerp, Belgium (2003), Beijing, China (2004), Jyväskylä, Finland (2005), Lisbon, Portugal (2006), Buenos Aires, Argentina (2007), Antalya, Turkey (2008), Parma, Italy (2009), Prague, The Czech Republic (2010), Valladolid, Spain (2011), Burlington, USA (2012), St. Petersburg, Russia (2013), Halle, Germany (2014), Kolkota, India (2015), Geneva, Switzerland (2016), Wollongong, Australia (2017), Leuven, Belgium (2018), Guayaquil, Ecuador (2019), Vienna, Austria (2021), Waterloo, Canada (2022), and Toulouse, France (2023).

DSSV has been an annual international conference since 2017. The previous DSSV meetings were held in Lisbon, Portugal (2017), Vienna, Austria (2018), Kyoto, Japan (2019), Durham, NC, USA (2020, virtual), Rotterdam, The Netherlands (2021, virtual), Tainan, Taiwan, ROC (2022, hybrid), and Antwerp, Belgium (2023).

The conference welcomes contributions to applied statistics as well as theoretical statistics, in particular new problems related to robust statistics, machine learning and statistical learning, outlier detection, visualization and verbalization of data, data analysis and other important themes.
