The 16th Workshop on Stochastic Models, Statistics and Their Applications (SMSA 2026) will take place at the University of Würzburg from March 18–20, 2026. Following successful previous meetings in Delft, Dresden, and Berlin, SMSA 2026 once again offers a diverse program covering current research topics in stochastic modeling, mathematical statistics, statistical learning, and their applications. Focus areas include: computational statistics, econometrics and statistics for financial data, high-dimensional and functional data, industrial statistics and reliability, inverse problems, machine learning and data science, statistics for time series and stochastic processes, and statistics in the natural sciences.
