The school focuses on the progression from classical statistical inference to modern learning methods, emphasizing their interplay and applications. It aims to provide participants with a solid understanding of probability and statistics, their extension through stochastic modeling, and their role in contemporary statistical learning. The first part revisits key concepts of inference, including estimation, hypothesis testing, and regression, highlighting their limitations.

L'intelligence artificielle (IA) est un processus d'imitation de l'intelligence humaine qui repose sur la création et l'application d'algorithmes exécutés dans un environnement apparemment informatique et dynamique. Son but est de
permettre à des ordinateurs de penser et d'agir comme les cerveaux humains. Pour y parvenir, trois composants sont nécessaires, à savoir, les systÚmes informatiques, les données avec des systÚmes de gestion et les algorithmes

Algebraic number theory is a very active field of mathematics. We plan to introduce the subject and its application to cryptography. After given courses in elementary arithmetic, algebraic numbers and p-adic numbers, we will focus on the basics of elliptic curves and finite fields. Applications will also figure prominently in the program as it is shown by the presence of the following courses: Introduction to cryptography, Elliptic curves and cryptography.
