Abstract
The Japan Society of Computer Statistics, founded in 1986, promotes basic and a pplied research in statistical methodologies and software development. Since its inception, the Society has fostered a unique collaboration between corporate and academic researchers, exemplified by the alternating appointment of chairpersons from each sector. Despite its modest size, the Society actively organizes two annual conferences, publishes journals in both European and Japanese contexts, and hosts various seminars to advance the field.
