Studies in Theoretical and Applied Statistics – serie

This book addresses a wide range of recent methodological aspects, applications and best practices of statistics production. It comprises a selection of peer-reviewed contributions of methodological and applied interest presented at the 4th Conference of European Statistics Stakeholders, CESS 2022, held in Rome, Italy, on October 20-21, 2022. The first part discusses statistical methods with applications to environmental risk assessment, sentinels data, surveillance systems during the Covid-19 pandemic, healthcare risk management, the analysis of regional or structural changes of scale, household distributional accounts, regional rental prices on municipalities, the network topology of the Euro area interbank market, tourism statistics and big data, statistical literacy, and Sustainable Development Goal composite indicators for EU countries. The second part focuses on statistical methodologies for complex data analysis, namely the optimal number of clusters to rank a model-based index, clustering methods for asymmetric data using spectral approaches, a family of parsimonious matrix-variate mixture models for heavy-tailed data, the importance of robust second-stage regressions for financial data, and on perturbation methods.In view of the overarching theme “The European Data Ecosystem for the Statistical Information of the Digital Age” and the importance of statistical data for monitoring the progress of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals, the CESS 2022 meeting provided a forum for discussion on methodologies, results, challenges and best practices among methodologists, producers, and users of European Statistics from academia, the national statistical offices and the institutions of the European Union.Chapter Estimating regional rental prices on LAU 2 municipalities in North Rhine-Westphalia is available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com.

The book, belonging to the series “Studies in Theoretical and Applied Statistics– Selected Papers from the Statistical Societies”, presents a peer-reviewed selection of contributions on relevant topics organized by the editors on the occasion of the SIS 2013 Statistical Conference "Advances in Latent Variables.

This volume of the Selected Papers is a product of the XIX Congress of the Portuguese Statistical Society, held at the Portuguese town of Nazaré, from September 28 to October 1, 2011. It covers a broad scope of papers in the areas of Statistical Science, Probability and Stochastic Processes, Extremes and Statistical Applications.

?The book showcases a selection of peer-reviewed papers, the preliminary versions of which were presented at a conference held 11-13 June 2011 in Bologna and organized jointly by the Italian Statistical Society (SIS), the Institute national Institute of Statistics (ISTAT) and the Bank of Italy.

This bookhighlights the latest research findings from the 46th International Meeting ofthe Italian Statistical Society (SIS) in Rome, during which both methodologicaland applied statistical research was discussed.

The theme of the meeting was “Statistical Methods for the Analysis of Large Data-Sets”. In recent years there has been increasing interest in this subject; in fact a huge quantity of information is often available but standard statistical techniques are usually not well suited to managing this kind of data. The conference serves as an important meeting point for European researchers working on this topic and a number of European statistical societies participated in the organization of the event.  The book includes 45 papers from a selection of the 156 papers accepted for presentation and discussed at the conference on “Advanced Statistical Methods for the Analysis of Large Data-sets.”

Statistics has been a main tool in almost every field of activity and an essential part of applied scientific work, supporting conclusions and offering insights into new uses for established methodologies, thus making it a valuable resource in looking for faceless facts.

This volume of the Selected Papers from Portugal is a product of the Seventeenth Congress of the Portuguese Statistical Society, held at the beautiful resort seaside city of Sesimbra, Portugal, from September 30 to October 3, 2009. It covers a broad scope of theoretical, methodological as well as application-oriented articles in domains such as: Linear Models and Regression, Survival Analysis, Extreme Value Theory, Statistics of Diffusions, Markov Processes and other Statistical Applications.

This volume includes contributions selected after a double blind review process and presented as a preliminary version at the 45th Meeting of the Italian Statistical Society. The papers provide significant and innovative original contributions and cover a broad range of topics including: statistical theory; statistical modeling and data analysis;
