10th Conference on Bayesian Nonparametrics

第10届贝叶斯非参数会议将于6月22日至26日在北卡罗来纳州罗利举行。为无法获得其他资金来源参加会议的初级研究人员提供旅费支持是保持美国机构在该领域当前领导地位的关键。会议还将为美国研究人员提供与来自欧洲、亚洲和拉丁美洲等世界其他地区的主要研究人员交流思想的机会。许多受邀演讲者，包括一名全体会议演讲者，都是女性。我们将大力鼓励更多的妇女和少数民族参加会议，并通过国家科学基金会的资助为她们提供地方支持。贝叶斯非参数已经发展成为统计学中发展最快的研究领域之一。它的应用领域包括遗传学、金融学、生存分析、社会学、网络和机器学习。会议的主要目的是汇集专家和年轻的研究人员，理论家和实践者，谁使用贝叶斯非参数技术。会议有一个结构良好的平衡方案，涵盖了该主题的各个领域。会议的科学委员会由贝叶斯非参数和相关主题的国际知名专家组成。会议将包括三次概览全体会议，24次邀请会议，几次专题会议和两次大型专题海报会议。海报环节和一些专题讲座是专门为年轻研究人员保留的。此外，会议将为年轻研究人员提供机会，通过促进出版同行评议的论文和建议出版一份主要统计杂志的特刊，广泛传播他们的工作成果。由美国国家科学基金会提供的资金将支持在美国机构工作的学生、博士后学者和初级教员参加会议。

The 10th Conference on Bayesian Nonparametrics is going to be held during June 22-26, in Raleigh, NC. Providing travel support to junior researchers who do not have access to other sources of funding to attend the conference is key to maintaining the current leadership of American institutions in this field. The conference will also provide American researchers opportunity to exchange ideas with leading researchers from elsewhere in the world such as Europe, Asia and Latin America. Many of the invited speakers including a plenary speaker are women. More women and minorities will be highly encouraged to take part in the conference by providing them local support obtained through funding from the National Science Foundation.Bayesian nonparametrics has evolved as one of the fastest growing areas of research in statistics. Its application areas include genetics, finance, survival analysis, sociology, networks and machine learning. The primary objective of the conference is to bring together experts and young researchers, theoreticians and practitioners, who use Bayesian nonparametric techniques. The conference has a well-structured balanced program covering various areas of the subject. The scientific committee of the conference consists of renowned international experts on Bayesian nonparametrics and related topics. The meeting will include three overview plenary talks, twenty four invited talks, several contributed talks and two large contributed poster sessions. The poster session and some slots for contributed talks are especially reserved for young researchers. In addition, the conference will provide opportunities for young researchers to disseminate widely the results of their work by facilitating the publication of peer-reviewed papers and a proposed special issue of a leading statistics journal. Funding from the National Science Foundation will support participation of students, post-doctoral scholars and junior faculty members working in U.S. institutions to participate in the conference.
