APRIL 8-9, 2026 • CASABLANCA

First International Conference on
Statistical Modeling & AI

Organized by LP2MGI Laboratory & EST Casablanca.
A scientific platform for data analysis, optimization, and industrial engineering.

Context

Statistical modeling is a fundamental tool in modern scientific research. Given the exponential growth of data in all fields (industry, health, logistics, energy), it is essential to develop robust quantitative methods to:

  • Understand and model complex phenomena.
  • Build reliable and validated predictive models.
  • Quantify uncertainty and optimize systems.
  • Integrate artificial intelligence to explore non-linear relationships.

Objectives

  • 1 Highlight advanced research in statistical modeling applied to scientific and industrial fields.
  • 2 Present innovative methods for complex data analysis, prediction, and statistical inference.
  • 3 Explore interactions between statistics and AI, particularly for model validation.

Topics

The conference covers a wide range of fields related to statistical modeling, data analysis, and AI applied to industrial systems.

Statistical Analysis

Predictive modeling and advanced statistical inference.

Data Science

Data science applied to industrial and scientific systems.

Quality & Reliability

Quality control, system reliability, and maintenance.

Optimization

Decision modeling and operations research.
