The annual meeting of several large North American scholarly societies, this conference has 6000+ attendees, dozens of short courses, and presentations on with ranging from statistical applications to methodology and theory to the expanding boundaries of statistics, such as analytics and data science. The Monday session organized by the ASA Astrostatistics Special Interest Group has talks on statistical challenges in research on exoplanets, galaxy redshifts, signal processing, and pulsars.
