Call For Papers

uRos 2020 (International Conference on the Use of R in Official Statistics) is an academic conference held in Vienna, Austria on 2020-05-06. The paper submission deadline is 2019-12-31. Acceptance notifications are sent on 2020-02-29.

The annual conference on the Use of R in Official Statistics will take place at the premises of Statistics Austria, 6-8 May 2020. The conference consists of one tutorial day (6 May 2020) and two days of scientific conference (7-8 May 2020). We are also excited to announce an “unconference” “Use of R in Official Statistics” back-to-back with the uRos2020 conference, scheduled on 4-5 May 2020. Over the last two decades R has become the lingua franca for statisticians, methodologists and data scientists worldwide. The reasons why the official statistics community is rapidly embracing R are clear: it has an active worldwide community of users, there is wide support from the industry and it combines a vast amount of functionalities for data preparation, methodology, visualisation and application building. Moreover, R-based software is exchanged through strictly enforced technical standards: “R is probably the most thoroughly validated statistics software on Earth.” – Uwe Ligges, CRAN maintainer (useR!2017). Finally, R is a free (libre) Open Source software product, making it an ideal environment for sharing, collaboration and industrialising official statistics. The annual event “use of R in Official Statistics” started as a local conference at the Statistical Office of Romania in 2013, with the first international edition being held at that same office in 2014. In 2018, Statistics Netherlands hosted the sixth edition of this event, which brought together official statisticians, scientists, and prominent members of the R community to share ideas on using and developing R tools in the area of official statistics. Now it is Statistics Austria’s turn to host this stimulating meeting and we very much look forward to welcoming you to Vienna in 2020. Call for abstracts - presentations We are cordially inviting you to submit papers to and attend the International Conference The Use of R in Official Statistics – uRos2020 until 31 December 2019. There will be two kind of presentations “contributed presentations” with roughly 15 minutes time slots and “lighting presentations” with 5 minutes time slots and automatic cycling through the slides. Please indicate your preference, but the scientific committee will finally assign the presentations into the two categories. The purpose of the conference is to provide a public forum for researchers from academia and institutes of official (government) statistics to present, exchange ideas and discuss developments in state-of-the-art statistical software commonly used in applied economics and statistics. The most focused debates are expected to be on the use of R in Official Statistics. The topics covered by the conference are the following: * Sampling and estimation * R in organization * Data cleaning * R in production: data analysis * Methods for official statistics * Shiny applications * Time series * Report and GUI programming * R in production: automation * Big data * Dissemination and visualization The participants are kindly asked to submit the abstract via e-mail to: uRos2020 [at] statistik.gv.at
