Summer school on “Bayesian modeling, computation and applications”

Time:  From July 23 to August 1, 2025, with two-day workshops scheduled for July 25 and July 26, 2025.

Location: University of Economics Ho Chi Minh City

+ Campus V, 232/6 Vo Thi Sau Street, Ward 7, District 3, Ho Chi Minh City 

+ Campus B, 279 Nguyen Tri Phuong Street, Ward 8, District 10, Ho Chi Minh City

Organizers:

+ Vietnam Institute for Advanced Study in Mathematics (VIASM)

+ University of Economics Ho Chi Minh City (UEH)

Objective: 

This will be the third in the summer school series on mathematical statistics and machine learning. In 2025 we continue the themes of hierarchical and dynamic modeling, Bayesian computation and applications. The goals of the summer school are threefold:

+ To introduce researchers and advanced students in Vietnam to both modern and foundational topics in mathematical statistics and machine learning. This is achieved by having world-leading experts to come and teach on a well-designed sequence of lectures. Each lecturer will start from foundational concepts and be given time to go deeper into some topics of modern research. 

+ The mini conference will feature high quality talks from domestic and international researchers. It is expected that the participants, after taking the lectures, may start to be able to appreciate the technical talks given at the conference.

+ To enhance the interactions between domestic students and researchers to the broader community of top-notch statistics and machine learning researchers through the lectures and mid-program activities. Domestic researchers interested in collaborative opportunities and students interested in graduate studies abroad will find such interactions useful. 

Program Committee:

+ Nguyễn Xuân Long, University of Michigan, USA, Chair

+ Trần Thị Tuấn Anh, University of Economics Ho Chi Minh city, Vietnam

+ Lê Minh Hà, Vietnam Institute for Advanced Study in Mathematics, Vietnam

+ Ngô Hoàng Long, Hanoi National University of Education, Vietnam

+ Trần Minh Ngọc, University of Sydney, Australia

+ Tạ Công Sơn, Vietnam National University, Hanoi

Expected participants: researchers and faculty in universities in Vietnam, as well as selected university students in mathematics, computer science and related fields.

Prerequisites: good backgrounds in math or related fields and some exposure to statistics and ML.

Target participants for summer school: 70 participants

Target participants for workshop: The workshop welcomes a broad audience, including all individuals from within and outside UEH, as well as participants from both Vietnam and abroad

Language: English
