Scope

Recognizing the increasing need of ad hoc and innovative mathematical and statistical tools for current and emerging metrological applications in several areas of the Science of Measurement, the Italian local network of ENBIS, i.e. itENBIS, the Italian National Metrology Institute INRIM and Politecnico di Torino organized in 2019 a joint Workshop on Mathematical and Statistical Methods for Metrology (MSMM 2019).

Based on the success of the previous edition and in view of the foreseen collaborations between statistical and metrological European communities, the forthcoming MSMM 2021 Workshop will be jointly organized by the European Network for Business and Industrial Statistics (ENBIS) and the European Metrology Network (EMN) for Mathematics and Statistics (MATHMET), under the local organization of INRIM and Politecnico di Torino.

Highlights of the Workshop include invited talks, as well as plenary, specialized and contributed sessions concerning the main topics of Mathematics and Statistics for metrological applications. Session topics include but are not limited to:

-           Uncertainty and measurement quality evaluation

-           Regression and inverse models

-           Interlaboratory data evaluation

-           High dimensional, dynamic and complex models

-           Bayesian models

-           Simulations and virtual experiments, computational methods and digital twins

-           Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Big Data analytics

-           Statistical engineering

-           Data and software reliability

-           Design of experiments, sampling and sequential design

-           Digitalization in Metrology

-           Time series analysis

-           Conformity assessment, reliability and quality control

-           Chemometrics

-           Biostatistics

A joint introductory session will be specifically dedicated to the presentation of the mission and main recent activities conducted by ENBIS and MATHMET, respectively, in order to foster collaborative interactions between the two bodies.

Researchers and practitioners from the international metrology community and the mathematical/statistical community, including experts from Academy, Industry and Standardization, are welcome to join the Workshop, in order to strengthen connections and collaborations and to provide benefit for the fields of interest. Youngest researchers are strongly encouraged to attend the conference for nurturing scientific and professional interactions at lower registration fees.

The official language of the Workshop is English.
