Title: Probabilistic and Statistical Methods of Big Data Analysis

Keynote Speaker: Ma Zhiming

Speaker Introduction: Ma Zhiming, mathematician and academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, has made enormous contributions in probability theory and stochastic analysis, and significant breakthroughs in studying the corresponding relation between Dirichlet form and Markov process. He was invited to make a report at the 1994 International Congress of Mathematicians, and won several awards, including the Max-Planck Research Award, the First Prize of the Natural Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the Second Prize of the National Natural Science Award, the Chen Shengshen Prize in Mathematics, and the Loo-Keng Hua Prize in Mathematics. In 1995, he was elected as an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences; in 1998, he was elected as an academician of the Third World Academy of Sciences; in 2007, he was elected as a fellow of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics (IMS). He served as chairman of the Organizing Committee of the 2002 International Congress of Mathematicians in Beijing; member (2003-2006) and vice chairman (2007-2010) of the Executive Committee of International Mathematical Union; president of the 8th (2000-2003) and 10th (2008-2011) Chinese Mathematical Society; president of the China Probabilistic and Statistical Association (2011-2014); member of the National Textbook Committee in 2017; and he is currently the dean of the School of Mathematical Sciences, USTC.
