Acknowledgements:
We would like to express all our thanks to the Computer Science Department LIX of Ecole Polytechnique for hosting this second scientific´ event at the interface between Geometry, Probability and Information Geometry. In particular, we warmly thank Evelyne Rayssac of LIX, Ecole Polytechnique for her kind administrative support that helped us book the auditorium and various ressources at Ecole Polytechnique, and Olivier Bournez (LIX Director) for providing financial support.
We would like to acknowledge all the Organizing and Scientific Committee members for their hard work, in evaluating submissions: PierreAntoine Absil, Bijan Afsari, Stéphanie Allassonniére, Jésus Angulo, Marc Arnaudon, Michael Aupetit, Roger Balian, Barbara Trivellato, Pierre Baudot, Daniel Bennequin, Yannick Berthoumieu, Jérémie Bigot, Silvère Bonnabel,Michel Boyom, Michel Broniatowski, Martins Bruveris, Charles Cavalcante, Frédéric Chazal, Arshia Cont, Gery de Saxcé, Laurent Decreusefond, Michel Deza, Stanley Durrleman, Patrizio Frosini, Alfred Galichon, Alexander Ivanov, Jérémie Jakubowicz, Hongvan Le, Nicolas Le Bihan, Luigi Malago, Jonathan Manton, Jean-François Marcotorchino, Bertrand Maury, Ali Mohammad-Djafari, Richard Nock, Yann Ollivier, Xavier Pennec, Michel Petitjean, Gabriel Peyré, Giovanni Pistone, Olivier Rioul, Said Salem, Olivier Schwander, Rodolphe Sepulchre, Hichem Snoussi, Alain Trouvé, Claude Vallée, Geert Verdoolaege, Rui Vigelis, Susan Holmes, Martin Kleinsteuber, Shiro Ikeda, Martin Bauer, Charles-Michel Marle, Mathilde Marcolli, Jean-Philippe Ovarlez, JeanPhilippe Vert, Allessandro Sarti, Jean-Paul Gauthier, Wen Huang, Antonin Chambolle, Jean-Franc¸ois Bercher, Bruno Pelletier, Stephan Weis, Gilles Celeux, Jean-Michel Loubes, Anuj Srivastana, Johannes Rauh, Joan Alexis Glaunes, Quentin Mérigot, K.

We also give our thanks to authors and co-authors, for their tremendous effort and scientific contribution.
As for GSI’13, a selected number of contributions focusing on a core topic have been invited to contribute to a chapter without page restriction of a collective book: This yielded the edited book “Geometric Theory of Information” in 2014. Similarly, for GSI’15, we invite prospective authors to submit their original work to a special issue on “ADVANCES IN DIFFERENTIAL GEOMETRICAL THEORY OF STATISTICS” of the MDPI Entropy journal.
It is our hope that the fine collection of peer-reviewed papers presented in this LNCS proceedings will be a valuable resource for researchers working in the field of information geometry, and for graduate students.
