-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] CFP: SCECR 2020 (Madrid, Spain) Date: Fri, 10 Jan 2020 04:04:03 -0500 From: Gordon Burtch gburtch@umn.edu To: aisworld@lists.aisnet.org
Dear colleagues,
We invite submissions for the Sixteenth Symposium on Statistical Challenges in eCommerce Research (SCECR 2020) to be hosted in Madrid, Spain on June 18-19th, 2020. Please visit http://www.scecr.org for additional conference details. Objective
We communicate using hieroglyphics called emojis rather than words, we watch for a second blue checkmark against a Whatsapp message rather than eye contact to signal the receipt of a message, we rely on algorithms to suggest music and mates. And in its turn, technology grows and learns from how we have been using it. Human endeavor and not just effort has magnified thanks to our symbiosis with technology. The theme for this symposium will be “*Technology + Human*”
We welcome submissions from a broad range of topics, including, but not limited to, electronic markets, social media, FinTech, digitization of industries and products, and virtually any data-driven phenomena. We welcome methodological contributions related to statistics, data mining, machine learning, econometrics, and other empirical approaches motivated by data. *Submissions should highlight the statistical and empirical challenges* that arise from the collection, analysis, and modeling of data. Submission Guidelines
Authors are invited to submit abstracts of their work for consideration at the conference. Abstracts should be a maximum of two pages (excluding references, figures, and tables), and should outline the research conducted as well as identify the statistical challenges associated with it. As this is a work-in-progress symposium, we will evaluate abstracts based on the fit of the research with the symposium’s goals and its ability to stimulate lively discussion around the particular empirical challenges and potential solutions. Submissions will be accepted starting January 1st.
