Software Demonstrations

Demonstrate Your Software at the Seventh International Conference on Establishment Statistics.

Do you have software (e.g., R package, SAS macro, C code, Python script, etc.) related to establishment statistics you would like to show off? Sign up to do a demonstration at ICES VII. You will be provided with a table and chairs, while you provide your own computers, demonstration software, and test data.

ICES VII is designed to look forward to key issues and methods pertaining to establishment statistics. Demonstrations should target live processing of data with possible customization for the interest of specific audiences, rather than inflexible slide shows or presentations. Proposed software packages should already be applicable to establishment statistics and/or survey data. Appropriate uses might include the following:

  • Producing statistics
  • Creating and updating registers
  • Questionnaire development
  • Selection of samples and sample weighting
  • Data collection methodology
  • Automated data coding and variable transformations
  • Calibration to administrative data or other benchmarks
  • Data linkage, matching
  • Modeling using survey data
  • Use of big data with surveys
  • Descriptive and complex statistical analyses
  • Machine learning
  • Survey management
  • Measuring and mitigating nonresponse bias
  • Estimation and variance estimation (e.g., small area) for standard and complex survey designs
  • Advances in disclosure protection
  • Making inference from survey data
  • Visualizing data

Proposal Submission

Proposals must include a description of the software package and potential applications. Only submissions received by the January 15, 2024 deadline will be considered.
