Data, Statistics and AI for Well-Being of People and Organisations

  • A cura di:
  • Luigi Fabbris,
  • Alberto Franci,
  • Pietro Renzi,

The volume contains a set of selected works in applied statistics whose content was presented at the ASA – Association for Applied Statistics conference held in the Republic of San Marino in September 2025. Four keywords represent the fil rouge of the works: statistics, artificial intelligence (AI), data, and well-being. Statistics, jointly with well-being, highlights that scholars who contributed to the volume aimed to describe cases of what is called “applied statistics”, to mean the use of statistics to solve real world problems. This identifies a large set of techniques and models useful to represent, analyse, or forecast social, economic, biological, psychological and natural events.
