Munich Workshop on Causal Inference and Information Theory

Causal inference (including measures of causality, causal modeling, and structure learning), has received considerable attention in the recent years from researchers in information theory, economics, philosophy, and machine learning. The goal of this workshop is to bring together outstanding researchers from these areas in order to discuss possible interconnections between their viewpoints and approaches.

Mathematical Tools of Information-Theoretic Security Workshop

This workshop aims to foster interactions between researchers with diverse interests in security problems using mathematical tools from classical and quantum information theory, coding theory, computer science, and differential privacy analysis. Specifically, we will bring together active researchers in the areas of information-theoretic security, quantum information, quantum cryptography, biometrics, codes for confidentiality, authentication, and privacy, covert and stealth communications, and fundamental privacy vs utility tradeoffs.
