123-SPRING-SCHOOL-ON-STATISTICS-AND-MACHINE-LEARNING.png

Time: 08:00, April 8, 2025 – 16:00, April 18, 2025

Location: University of Science, VNU-HCM

Objectives

The Spring School at the University of Science, VNU-HCM, fosters academic collaboration and professional connections with the Institute of Mathematics of Toulouse and ENS-Paris-Saclay, France. Our project aims to support the long-term development of applied data science in Vietnam, benefiting students, lecturers, and the broader academic community in Vietnam and neighboring countries.

The Spring School will feature introductory courses on statistics and machine learning in the first week, followed by more advanced courses (either theoretical or applied) in the second week. These courses are designed for senior undergraduate students (4th-year) and master's students in mathematics. Motivated 3rd-year students are also welcome to participate, particularly in the first week, along with PhD students, postdoctoral researchers, and professionals in the field of statistics.

This school is planned to be held regularly in the coming years to sustain and develop collaboration between France and Vietnam in statistics, machine learning, and data science. Additionally, we hope that promising Vietnamese students will be encouraged to pursue PhD research under joint supervision with French experts.
