         </div><p>Computational counting problems are concerned with computing sums, weighted sums and integrals including, for example,
         the expectation of a random variable or the probability of an event. We are interested in characterising the inherent difficulty
         of exact and approximate counting problems and in the development of relevant algorithmic techniques.</p>
