Researchers from ESSEC and ENSAE are organising a workshop at Institut Henri Poincaré, next June. This workshop will focus on exploring the latest advancements in Approximate Inference methods, with an emphasis on techniques such as Variational Inference and its related approaches. We aim to explore recent breakthroughs in computer science and statistics that enable inference across large-scale models and big datasets, surpassing conventional simulation-based methods. The workshop will bring together researchers from statistics, computer science, and econometrics to exchange ideas on cutting-edge methodological advances and their practical applications. Registration is open and program is available.
