Biography
Carlo Cavicchia is an Assistant Professor of Statistics at the Econometric Institute of Erasmus University Rotterdam. His research primarily focuses on the methodological and computational aspects of data analysis, particularly in areas such as latent variable models, unsupervised classification, and model-based composite indicators. In addition to his research, Carlo has taught various statistics and data science courses at both graduate and undergraduate levels. Furthermore, he supervises MSc and BSc theses in Econometrics, Statistics, and Data Science. Carlo is also part of the sector plan SSH Breed (Theme 4: Digital decision support). Carlo has also been actively involved in other academic roles. Currently, he holds the position of IASC data analysis competition officer (2023-2025) and has previously served as a National board member (2021-2022) and National coordinator of y-SIS (2022). He contributes to the academic community as a reviewer for several statistics journals and has organized conferences such as DSSV 2020 and DSSV-ECDA 2021. Additionally, he is a program committee member for various conferences, including CLADAG-VOC 2025, CLADAG 2023, IES 2023, IES 2022, SIS 2022, IES 2023, and CLADAG 2023.
