LAST CALL FOR PAPERS
12th Brazilian Meeting on Bayesian Statistics
Atibaia, March 10-14, 2014 - http://www.ime.usp.br/~isbra/ebeb/

ABSTRACT DEADLINE: January 10, 2014
PAPER DEADLINE: February 10, 2014 (for accepted abstracts)

The Brazilian Meeting on Bayesian Statistics (EBEB 2014) invites
submissions of papers on all topics related to Bayesian Statistics.
Full papers accepted to the proceedings will be published in a book
from the series "Springer Proceedings in Mathematics & Statistics"
(http://www.springer.com/series/10533). Submissions must be
formatted accordingly. Papers (including figures and text) are
limited to 10 pages in length.

EBEB 2014 will take place in Atibaia (Brazil) from March 10 to 14,
in a beautiful country-side hotel specialized in horse riding. This
is precisely one week after the famous Brazilian carnival. The venue
is conveniently placed near Sao Paulo-Guarulhos international
airport (40-minutes trip; the organization will coordinate means to
help participants to reach the venue).

These meetings aim at strengthening the research on Bayesian methods
and widening their application. They also provide an environment
where Brazilian and international researchers collaborate, present
their most recent developments and discuss on open problems. Guest
speakers from many countries in Europe, USA and South America will
give presentations during the event. This year's meeting has a
particular focus on discussing recent developments in the many
viewpoints of Bayesian statistics, such as computational,
theoretical, methodological and applied views. The EBEB 2014 is
organized by ISBrA - the Brazilian Chapter of ISBA.
