Large, complex, unstructured problems pose a serious challenge in virtually every human endeavor. Unfortunately, “textbook problems” are typically solved through the application of a “correct” tool, often the one under current study. How then should these big problems be solved? We believe that cost-effective, sustainable solutions for these big problems are best attained through the application of Statistical Engineering, a discipline that has been proven effective and whose expansion will work to the benefit of humanity.
Day 1 of the 2021 ISEA Summit features our Keynote Speaker, Dr Michael I. Jordan (University of California, Berkeley), followed by a panel discussion on the topic of Statistical Engineering. Day 2 features 3 case studies demonstrating applications of Statistical Engineering. On both days, interactive breakout rooms (via Zoom) will conclude each day. You will receive those links by email a few days before the Summit.
