 Workshop Objectives and Topics

 

In honor of Shannon's 105 th Birthday, and in celebration of our recently edited book Advances in Info-Metrics: Information and Information Processing across Disciplines (Chen, Dunn, Golan, Ullah, OUP, 2021), we will have a one-day online workshop to discuss recent advances in info-metrics and information-theoretic inference. The workshop will focus on info-metrics in the 21st century: recent advances, open questions and directions for future research within an interdisciplinary perspective. The aims of the workshop are to provide a forum for the dissemination of new research in all areas of info-metrics and to stimulate discussion between researchers, and students, across fields.

The workshop will consist of invited talks, papers’ presentations, a graduate student session and a panel discussion.

 

Topics of interest include (but not limited to)

 

    Modeling and Inference

    Applied Info-Metrics Inference

    Philosophy of info-metrics

    Causal Inference and info-metrics

    AI, Machine Learning, Deep Learning and info-metrics

    Covid-19 and info-metrics

    Inequality and info-metrics
