Matúš Maciak is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Probability and Mathematical Statistics, Charles University, Prague, Czech Republic. His research interests include innovative statistical approaches concerning nonparametric and semiparametric regression models, sparse fitting via convex optimization (atomic pursuit / LASSO), estimation under various shape constraints, robustness and quantiles, and changepoint detection and estimation within various data structures. He also has practical experience in applied statistics, especially in empirical econometrics and finance, insurance, ecology, and the medical sciences. Michal Pešta is an Associate Professor at the Department of Probability and Mathematical Statistics, Charles University, Prague, Czech Republic. His research interests include asymptotic methods for changepoint, weak dependence, copulae, resampling methods, panel data, nonparametric regression, and errors-in-variables modeling. He is also interested in developing complex statistical methodology frameworks for various real-life settings, including empirical econometrics, finance, and non-life insurance. Martin Schindler is an Assistant Professor of Applied Mathematics at the Technical University of Liberec, Czech Republic. His research interests include robust and nonparametric statistics, statistical computing and simulations. He has also worked on various inference procedures based on regression rank scores used in both linear and nonlinear models. During his postdoctoral studies at the University of Tampere he worked on nonparametric procedures for microarray data.
