SDS 2024
The SIS group Statistics and Data Science aims at fostering the statistical skills in the scientific research and teaching in the context of Data Science. Its goals are
- to constitute a reference within the SIS on Data Science themes with the aim of establishing contacts, interactions, and systematic relationships with other national and international statistical societies and with other academic and non-academic communities interested in Data Science from different perspectives;
- to promote and coordinate, through research projects and workshops, theoretical and applied research with emphasis on the role of Statistics in Data Science;
- to promote contributions and specialized sessions on Data Science topics within the institutional events of SIS;
- to support those who promote, coordinate, or participate in the development of Data Science training programs at any level and in particular in the universities and to promote the organization of courses, schools, or tutorials within workshops;
- to promote the dissemination of the scientific activities of its members, and of work and research opportunities in Data Science.
Conference topics
Researchers and practitioners interested in Statistics and Data Science and the related methodological and applied fields are invited to submit papers for the Third Meeting of the Statistics and Data Science group.

SIS 2023 International Meeting
Italian Statistical Society (SIS) promotes every two years an international specialized statistical conference. The meeting focuses on both methodological and applied statistical research.
The Italian Statistical Society was founded in 1939. Today, it consists of about one thousand members from Universities and public or private organizations, including scholars in statistical methodology, probability, economic and social statistics, demography.
SIS organizes two biennial scientific meetings - a general conference covering all the statistical topics and a specialized conference on more focused topics. The society publishes an International Journal (SMA) and two on-line magazines.
The new challenges of digitalization, innovation and sustainability are showing the crucial role of data-driven approaches in supporting decision-making processes. Methodologies resulting from the integration of different know-how seem to be a reliable way to deal with the increasing need to measure the impact of the policies and to forecast scenarios. This meeting welcomes any attempt to face new challenges.

Innovation & Society 5.0: Statistical and Economic Methodologies for Quality Assessment.
The Conference Innovation & Society 5.0 is the 10th Scientific Meeting of the "Statistics for the Evaluation and Quality of Services Group of the Italian Statistical Society - (SVQS)".
It will be held at Economic department, University of Campania "L. Vanvitelli", Gran Priorato di Malta, 81043 Capua (CE) Italy from 27 to 28 january 2022.
This Conference aims:
- to shine a light on the main statistical approaches and methodologies for the evaluation of a human-centered society emphasizing how statistical thinking, design and analysis may be of use to a Society 5.0. While the Enterprise 4.0 looks at the improvement of the production area with the use of the Information Technology (IT), the concept of Society 5.0 is not only aimed at the economy and business, but also at the population, thus promoting the idea of "Super Smart Society", where Information Technology, Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) will outline the profile of a new super-intelligent society and where many things of work and life will change.
- to foster advanced methodological research supporting the assessment of quality of social services. Indeed, the Society 5.0 is a human-centered society in which anyone can enjoy a high quality of life full of vigor where a higher value of services is recognized to the collaboration between man and machine, and the moral, ethical and economic values of digitization are rooted in the whole society.
- to be a platform where the experts of Statistics, Data Mining, Data Science, Machine Learning and related disciplines meet to understand and analyse administrative systems with Big Data.
The Society 5.0 addresses all areas of our work and our own life. We will therefore see changes in many aspects of our society and this will require many data analysts, who will have to manage information systems and work with Big Data.
Application fields of interest for the Conference are the following: Sustainability, Health, Wellness, Sport, Tourism, Education, Training and Research, Bank and FinTech, Transportation, Environment, Enterprise, Industry and Finance, E.commerce, Digital Marketing, labour Market, Public Administration, Justice System.
To make it as useful and constructive as possible, the Conference is open to the participation of and discussion with scholars of other disciplines, experts, responsible managers for development policies dealing with the relationships between evaluation, innovation and society.
SIS 2020

SIS 2019 - Smart Statistics for Smart Applications
We live in a smart world!
Many of us have a smart phone, a smart TV, a smart watch and our cities have the ambition to become soon smart cities. All this smartness makes use of data that are gathered, analyzed and used to make things easier, to take better decisions and ultimately to have a better life. Whether we want to choose the best restaurant, to plan a trip, to compare our health parameters or to decide what is the best moment to buy an air ticket, the apps of our devices collect large quantities of information, summarize them, present them in an easy format and use them to make accurate forecasts. In this process, obviously, they make a large use of statistics. However, are the current statistical methods adequate to this increased demand and increased quantity and variety of data? Are the old paradigms and methods still valid? Are the visualization analytics we used so far still valid? Are current statistical methods smart enough in the increasingly smart world we live in? The conference aims at discussing the state-of-the-art answers to these questions. It also aims at providing a forum where academics, researchers and practitioners could meet to share experiences and to discuss present a future challenges in this area.
