Dear colleagues,
We would like to announce the following workshop
“Stochastics, Statistics, Machine Learning and their Applications to Sustainable Finance and Energy Markets”
taking place at the Wolfgang Pauli Institute (WPI) in Vienna, Austria from the 11.09.2023-14.09.2023 (https://wpi.univie.ac.at/).
The workshop aims at bringing together an interdisciplinary group of leading researches with interest in stochastic methods for sustainable finance and energy markets. Particular emphasis will be given to Environmental Social Governance (ESG) finance, climate/weather modeling, optimal control problems and optimal contract theory e.g. in view of fostering renewable energy sources
The workshop starts on September 11, 2023, with two graduate courses held by Roxana Dumitrescu and Matheus Grasselli in the areas of green finance, climate modeling, renewables in energy markets and optimal control. The graduate courses are meant for Phd and advanced Master students and roughly correspond to 1 ECTS. A background in probability theory, applied stochastic processes, and statistics is recommended. These courses are then followed by 3 full conference days.
The goal is to provide a platform for exchanging new ideas among different research communities and initiate interdisciplinary collaborations. In particular a dedicated time for discussions will be scheduled on each day of the workshop. Beside the keynote speakers, there will be a limited amount of slots for contributed talks. We thus invite interested researchers including Phd students to present their recent work at the workshop.
If you would like to give a contributed talk, please send the title and abstract in a plain text email to: wpi-stostaml.2023@univie.ac.at The submission deadline is 10.06.2023. Please also mention which days of the workshop you would be able to participate. The organizing committee will review the abstracts and will get back to you by approximately end of June to let you know if your talk has been accepted.
Attending the workshop is for free, but please register via email to wpi-stostaml.2023@univie.ac.at The registration deadline is 01.08.2023. Please also mention which days of the workshop you would be able to participate.
In case of problems / questions, please do not hesitate to send us an e-mail (wpi-stostaml.2023@univie.ac.at).
We are looking very much forward to welcoming you in Vienna in September!
Kind regards,
Viktoria Schildhammer
