Every two years, Australia’s applied mathematics community invites a distinguished international academic to speak at universities across Australia.

This year, the AMSI-ANZIAM Distinguished Lecturer is Professor Konstantin Avrachenkov, Director of Research at France’s National Institute for Research in Digital Science and Technology, or INRIA.

The Random Sample caught up with Prof Avrachenkov at the recently held ANZIAM 2023 Conference in Cairns. Also joining us for this episode is his PhD Supervisor from some 20 years ago, Emeritus Professor Jerzy Filar.

Welcome to The Random Sample! In this podcast, we share stories about mathematics, statistics, data science and the people involved. This is a collaboration between the Australian Data Science Network (ADSN), the Statistical Society of Australia (SSA), the Australian Mathematical Society (AustMS), the OPTIMA ARC Training Centre, the MATRIX Mathematical Research Institute, and the ARC Centre of Excellence for Mathematical and Statistical Frontiers (ACEMS). ACEMS created the podcast in 2018. For further resources and show notes, visit therandomsample.com.au
