This workshop will focus on recent developments in high-dimensional statistics, with an emphasis on different notions of robustness, the extent to which recent developments in theoretical computer science can lead to improvements with respect to traditional statistical metrics, challenges arising when the number of data points and the number of features diverge at similar rates, etc. Other potential topics are inference and causality, as well as inference after selection, i.e., data snooping and problems of multiple inference.
