The 2023 conference on Machine Learning in astronomical surveys intend to critically review new techniques in the Machine Learning methods for astronomy.
In order to bring together the widest possible community, while limiting the carbon impact, this conference will be organized in hybrid mode and on two physical sites simultaneously, at the IAP in Paris and at the CCA/Flatiron Institute in New York.

The physical processes driving galaxy formation and evolution are key topics in both the fields of Cosmology and extragalactic astronomy. The interrelations between these mechanisms, at both individual level and in the larger context of the galaxy environment, are also essential factors in the study of the cosmological parameters.
The usage of machine learning techniques for the analysis of astronomical data has exploded in the last decade thanks to their potential to carry out a great variety of tasks with high accuracy and high processing speed, which allows to handle big data surveys efficiently. Their application to increasingly larger science cases in the field of extragalactic astronomy and Cosmology has brought significant advances in the area, but has also marked some challenges (interpretability, uncertainty estimation, etc) that need to be addressed for a robust utilization of these methodologies to galaxy evolution and their environment.

ADASS provides a forum for scientists and programmers concerned with algorithms, software, and software systems employed in the acquisition, reduction, analysis, and dissemination of astronomical and planetary science data. An important element of the program is to foster communication between developers and users with a range of expertise in the production and use of software and systems. The program consists of invited talks, contributed oral and poster papers, tutorials, user group meetings, and special interest group meetings (collectively “Birds of a Feather” meetings). ADASS is known for its many fruitful community discussions during coffee breaks and after hours.

What could be a bigger source of "big data" than the entire Universe? Researchers in statistics and computer science are developing new methods to analyse the "big data" that companies and governments want to understand. To test out these methods they need big datasets that everyone can share --- and new astronomical telescopes just happen to be gearing up to generate observations of billions of stars and galaxies that fit the bill. Insights from statistics will help astrophysicists to get the most out of these observations. The Astrostatistics 2023 workshop will bring together statisticians and astrophysicists to learn the technical languages of the two fields and identify how to work together to combine the excitement of space with big data.

The Statistical Challenges in Modern Astronomy (SCMA) conference is truly cross-disciplinary — presentations by invited scholars of astronomical and data sciences are mixed in a program that pursues both scientific and methodological goals.
Themes include statistical modeling of astronomical phenomena, discovering hidden astronomical signals, and enhancing the roles of machine learning for astrophysical insights. The SCMA VIII conference is being held at a critical moment in time, as astrostatistical efforts are thriving around the world with increasing impact on the broader research enterprise.

This conference aims to explore the application of data-driven tools to learn about galaxy formation physics. It endeavours to maximize the gain from astrostatistics, data science, and machine learning for the galaxy formation field as a whole, by emphasizing the translation of data-driven results to physical understanding. This conference will focus on a sharing of expertise in data exploration and analysis tools, and an open discussion of how these may teach us about the physics of galaxy formation and evolution.

iid2022 is a Workshop and Winter School on Statistics aiming to further and disseminate the use of statistical methods for astronomy, the physical sciences, and related disciplines. The specific focus of this workshop is on statistical methods for event data, given their ubiquity in astronomy. A majority of astronomical data begin with the collection of individual events - typically photons - and therefore they fall under the general area of `event data'. As datasets become more complex and computers enable more sophisticated methods of analysis, it is useful to bring together data experts and mathematical statisticians to discuss how statistical methods are applicable to the data.
