SNAPLE aims at providing a substantial contribution to the development of innovative methods for the analysis of high-dimensional functional data, interfacing advanced statistical and numerical techniques. The workshop features talks about some of the achieved results and ongoing investigations of FIRB SNAPLE project, as well as various talks from internationally renowned scientists, with the aim discussing and exchanging ideas on new research perspectives. Invited speakers include: John Aston, Cambridge Marc Genton, KAUST Tilmann Gneiting, Heidelberg Institute for Theoretical Studies (HITS) and Karlsruhe Institute of Techology (KIT) Alberto Guadagnini, Politecnico di Milano Hans-Georg Muller, Universty of California - Davis Fabio Nobile, École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne Davide Pigoli, Cambridge Jim Ramsay, McGill University.
