History of The Taipei International Statistical Symposium (TISS)
The Taipei International Statistical Symposium hosted by the Institute of Statistical Science, Academia Sinica is the largest statistical conference in Taiwan. It takes place about every three to five years. The origin of Taipei International Statistical Symposium dates back to 1985, since then a serial of Taipei symposiums were held in 1990, 1993, 1998, 2002, 2007, and 2011. It is occasionally jointed with different international statistical associations, such as the International Chinese Statistical Association (ICSA, 2007), Bernoulli Society (2002), and International Association for Statistical Computing - Asian Regional Section (IASC-ARS, 2011). In the 2011 meeting, there were more than 500 participants from all over the world. The Taipei International Statistical Symposium has been one of the most prestigious statistical conferences in Asian countries.
Institute of Statistical Science at Academia Sinica (ISSAS)
The Institute of Statistical Science at Academia Sinica (ISSAS) was founded after the 14th Convocation of Academicians of Academia Sinica in July 1980, calling for its establishment. The Preparatory Office was set up in July 1982, with Dr. Min-Te Chao as the Director. The Institute was formally established on August 3, 1987, with Dr. Chao serving as the first Director. Since then, the institute has been led by a series of distinguished statisticians, with Dr. Hsin-Chou Yang taking the position in July 2023. The Institute conducts research across a wide range of areas in statistics and probability, including bioinformatics, medical and genetic statistics, brain imaging, time series, experimental design, and AI. It encourages both independent and collaborative research efforts and is known for its multidisciplinary projects. Currently, the institute has 32 research fellows, 21 postdoctoral fellows, 48 research assistants, and 21 support staff members. Over the past three years, the institute has published 326 articles in SCI journals. Its international journal, Statistica Sinica, has gained recognition as a leading statistical publication globally.
International Chinese Statistical Association (ICSA)
The International Chinese Statistical Association (ICSA) was established in 1991. The core mission of this professional organization is to promote the development and application of statistics within the global Chinese community. ICSA was founded to create a platform for communication, enabling Chinese statisticians, data analysts, and data scientists from different regions worldwide to share experiences, exchange ideas, and collaborate on academic research. ICSA actively organizes various academic conferences, seminars, and educational training activities aimed at promoting the latest developments and technological applications in statistics. Additionally, the association publishes professional journals, such as Statistica Sinica, co-published with the Institute of Statistical Science at Academia Sinica. These journals provide an important academic platform for statisticians to present innovative research. ICSA plays a critical role in facilitating knowledge exchange and professional growth in statistics globally, particularly within the Chinese academic and professional community. Through its activities and publications, ICSA is dedicated to supporting the education and research of statistics and fostering the professional development and collaboration of Chinese statisticians worldwide.
