Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are excited to introduce a Special Issue focusing on “Statistics: Theories and Applications.” Today, the field of statistics is experiencing rapid growth fueled by emerging mathematical theories, technological innovations, fresh data streams stemming from contemporary challenges, and numerous connections forged between theory and application. The utilization of statistical theories and applications has become pervasive across various domains including actuarial science, biometrics, biomedical engineering, econometrics, environmental science, and financial markets. This Special Issue aims to highlight the significance and impact of statistics and its application, showcasing the latest advancements in statistical analysis, modeling, learning, and practical implementation. Topics include, but are not limited to, new developments in the following:
- Bayesian statistics;
- Model validation;
- Financial econometrics;
- Interval estimation and hypothesis testing;
- Quality control;
- Quantile regression—univariate and multivariate;
- Semi- and nonparametric modeling;
- Statistical learning with big data;
- Survival analysis;
- Genetics;
- Time series analysis—univariate and multivariate;
- Distributed/parallel computing.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Mathematics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
