The Hausdorff Centre for Mathematics will hold a week on recent advances in MCMC in Bonn, Germany, March 30 – April 3, 2020. Preceded by two days of tutorials. (“These tutorials will introduce basic MCMC methods and mathematical tools for studying the convergence to the invariant measure.”) There is travel support available, but the application deadline is quite close, as of 30 September.
Note that, in a Spring of German conference, the SIAM Conference on Uncertainty Quantification will take place in Munich (Garching) the week before, on March 24-27. With at least one likelihood-free session. Not to mention the ABC in Grenoble workshop in France, on 19-20 March. (Although these places are not exactly nearby!)
MaxEnt 2019 [last call]
Posted in pictures, Statistics, Travel with tags conference, Garching, Germany, MaxEnt 2019, maximum entropy, München, O'Bayes 2019, Warwick on April 30, 2019 by xi'an
For those who definitely do not want to attend O’Bayes 2019 in Warwick, the Max Ent 2019 conference is taking place at the Max Planck Institute for plasma physics in Garching, near Münich, (south) Germany at the same time. Registration is still open at a reduced rate and it is yet not too late to submit an abstract. A few hours left. (While it is still possible to submit a poster for O’Bayes 2019 and to register.)
![The SIAM UQ20 conference on uncertainty quantification I was about to attend has been cancelled, unfortunately. I was notified by Florence Forbes, who was also supposed to be there, as the organisers did not see fit to let me know. Now, the incoming ABC in Gre[e]noble may itself prove at risk! Stay tuned.](https://i0.wp.com/xianblog.fr/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/temp-3.png?resize=450%2C155&ssl=1)
