U.S.-Africa Workshop: Educational and Research Workshop on Bayesian Analysis, Cape Town, South Africa, Dec 16-17, 1996

这项资助将用于支持来自美国和非洲的研究人员、教育工作者和研究生参加将于1996年12月16日至17日在南非开普敦大学举行的关于贝叶斯分析的美国-非洲教育和研究研讨会。贝叶斯分析是原理、数学过程和计算技术的统一集合，用于解决自然科学、生物科学和社会科学中的科学和政策问题。美国与会者将介绍贝叶斯原理、应用和计算机程序。研讨会将紧接在开普敦举行的国际贝叶斯分析学会第四届世界会议。

This grant provides support for researchers, educators, and graduate students from the United States and Africa to participate in an U.S.-Africa Educational and Research Workshop on Bayesian Analysis to be held at the University of Cape Town, South Africa, from December 16-17, 1996. Bayesian analysis is a unified collection of principles, mathematical procedures, and computational techniques which is used to solve scientific and policy problems in the natural, biological, and social sciences. The United States participants will give presentations on Bayesian principles, applications, and computer programs. The workshop will immediately precede the 4th World Meeting of the International Society for Bayesian Analysis to be held in Cape Town.
