Highlighting the latest advances in nonparametric and semiparametric statistics, this book gathers selected peer-reviewed contributions presented at the 4th Conference of the International Society for Nonparametric Statistics (ISNPS), held in Salerno, Italy, on June 11-15, 2018. It covers theory, methodology, applications and computational aspects, addressing topics such as nonparametric curve estimation, regression smoothing, models for time series and more generally dependent data, varying coefficient models, symmetry testing, robust estimation, and rank-based methods for factorial design. It also discusses nonparametric and permutation solutions for several different types of data, including ordinal data, spatial data, survival data and the joint modeling of both longitudinal and time-to-event data, permutation and resampling techniques, and practical applications of nonparametric statistics.The International Society for Nonparametric Statistics is a unique global organization, and its international conferences are intended to foster the exchange of ideas and the latest advances and trends among researchers from around the world and to develop and disseminate nonparametric statistics knowledge. The ISNPS 2018 conference in Salerno was organized with the support of the American Statistical Association, the Institute of Mathematical Statistics, the Bernoulli Society for Mathematical Statistics and Probability, the Journal of Nonparametric Statistics and the University of Salerno.

This book on statistical models and learning methods for complex data comprises a selection of peer-reviewed post-conference papers presented at the 14th Scientific Meeting of the Classification and Data Analysis Group of the Italian Statistical Society (CLADAG 2023), held in Salerno, Italy, September 11–13, 2023. The contributions span a variety of topics, including different approaches to clustering and classification, multidimensional data analysis, panel data, social networks, time series, statistical inference, and mixture models. These methodologies are applied to a range of empirical domains such as economics, finance, hydrology, the social sciences, education, and sports.Organized biennially by international scientific committees, the CLADAG meetings advance methodological research in multivariate statistics, with a strong focus on data analysis and classification. They facilitate the exchange of ideas in these fields and promote the dissemination of concepts, numerical methods, algorithms, and computational and applied results.Chapter "Identification of misogynistic accounts on Twitter through Graph Convolutional Networks" is available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com.
