Bayesian Mailing List |
Statistics is primarily concerned with the analysis of data, either to assist in the appreciation of some underlying mechanism, or to reach effective decisions. In both cases, some uncertainty resides in the situation and the statistician's tasks are both to reduce this uncertainty and to explain it clearly. Problems of this type occur throughout all the physical, social and other sciences. One way of looking at statistics stems from the appreciation that all uncertainty must be described by probability: that probability is the only sensible language for a logic that deals with all degrees of uncertainty, and not just with the extremes of truth and falsity. This is called Bayesian Statistics. Decision-making is embraced by introducing a utility function, itself probability-based, and then maximizing expected utility. Bayesian statistics is designed to handle all situations where uncertainty is found. Since some uncertainty is present in most aspects of life, it is held that Bayesian statistics should be appreciated and used by everyone. It is the logic of contemporary society. It is 'common sense reduced to calculation.'
For an elementary, college level, introduction to Bayesian Statistics, see Bernardo (2003) Bayesian Statistics, an article written for the UNESCO Encyclopedia of Life Support Systems (EOLSS).
Every four years since 1979, the University of Valencia, Spain, has sponsored meetings devoted to Bayesian Statistics, the Valencia International Meetings on Bayesian Statistics. The published proceedings are listed below. The tremendous number of citations generated by them underscores their scientific relevance. The numbers attending have dramatically increased and include not only specialist statisticians but also others whose work has uncertainty as an important ingredient.

The Valencia Meetings are Equal Opportunity / Affirmative Action Conferences.

Benidorm (Alicante, Spain), June 1st to June 6th, 2006 Co-sponsored by the Universitat de València (UV) and by the International Society for Bayesian Analysis (ISBA), the 8th Valencia International Meeting on Bayesian Statistics and the 2006 World Meeting of the International Society for Bayesian Analysis will be jointly held in Benidorm (Alicante, Spain) from Friday June 2nd to Tuesday June 6th, both inclusive. The language of the conference will be English Local Organizer |
Delegates are expected to arrive on the evening of Thursday June 1st (the opening lecture will be early in the morning of June 2nd) and depart on the morning of Wednesday, June 7th (the gala dinner will be on the evening of June 6th). As in previous occasions, this will be a residential conference in a coastal resort. On this occasion the venue is Gran Hotel Bali (see picture below), a four star hotel with an appropriate purpose built large auditorium, built in the south end of Benidorm (50 km north from Alicante and 140 km south from Valencia). For precise details on the Hotel location, telephone and fax numbers, see HotelLocation.pdf.

The closest airport is Alicante (ALC), well connected to Madrid, Barcelona and many European cities, by both conventional and low-cost airlines. Possible alternatives include flying to either Valencia (VLC) or Madrid (MAD). Fast trains connect Valencia and Alicante (two hours) and Madrid and Alicante (four hours) several times a day (details at Renfe). Given the timing of the conference early flight bookings are strongly recommended.
Local transportation to BenidormA free shuttle bus service organized by the conference will be operating between Alicante airport and Hotel Bali Benidorm on both May 31st and June 1st, running every two hours. The specific departure times on both days will be:
11h00, 13h00, 15h00, 17h00, 19h00, 21h00, 23h00 and 01h00 am
Conference staff (showing a conference poster) will be on the arrivals hall to help. Similarly, buses will be provided from Hotel Bali Benidorm to Alicante airport on June 7th. The ride is about 50 minutes long. The departure times from the hotel will be:
04h00, 06h00, 08h00, 10h00, 12h00, 14h00, 16h00, 18h00 and 20h00.
Benidorm may be reached from either Alicante airport, Alicante town, or Valencia town by public bus www.alsa.es. Notice that there are two bus stops in Benidorm; that in Av. Jaume I (in Playa de Poniente) is closer to Gran Hotel Bali. Besides, there is a narrow gauge train (a tram), from Alicante harbour (Marina) to Benidorm www.fgv.es. A taxi between Alicante airport and Benidorm should cost about 65 euros.

The Conference will be preceded by three 2h30m long tutorials, intended to provide a short review of the main ideas in Bayesian Statistics. The tutorials will be delivered by members of the programme committee.

A set of three plenary poster sessions, the seminal means of communication of research by conference participants. These will take place in the evenings.
The space for posters will be portrait format: 100 cm wide and 200 cm height. No specific style required, just use your imagination to maximize visual impact. Authors are encouraged to bring to the poster session some hard copies of the relevant technical report(s), so that these may be handed over to interested people.
For optional submission to the published conference proceedings see below.
The order in which posters appear listed below is mainly alphabetical on the first-named author. However, efforts have been made to avoid authors of more than one poster have two posters the same evening and to accommodate some travel requirements, resulting in exceptions to that general rule.
22h00-01h00: Poster Session 1.

All abstracts of contributed papers presented at the meeting (in either oral or poster form) will also be included in the this CD. Please make sure to e-mail your abstract by March 31st, using the appropriate LaTeX format.
Edited by the Conference Programme Committee, Bayesian Statistics 8, the Valencia 8 conference proceedings, will be published after the meeting by Oxford University Press. The title page, the preface and the contents of Bayesian Statistics 7, the Proceedings of the previous meeting, may be downloaded from Valencia7.
Bayesian Statistics 8 will include refereed versions of the invited papers, and their discussion. Authors of invited papers are asked to submit their final versions as soon as available, but before May 1st 2006, in the specific LaTeX style described in the files contained in the zipped folder V8Macros.zip.
For contributed papers at the meeting, the following two-step publication process is encouraged:
Those contributed papers accepted by Bayesian Analysis, presented at the Valencia meeting, and for which a synopsis is submitted to the Valencia Proceedings will be considered for the Lindley Prize Lindley Prize. Note that it will be the original paper, not the synopsis, that will be considered for the Lindley Prize.
The registration fee (which includes the farewell dinner) is 225/250 Eur for ISBA/Non-ISBA members. Non-ISBA members may use the conference registration form to join ISBA at a reduced 25 Eur fee and qualify for the ISBA registration fee. The registration fee for accompanying persons (which also includes the farewell dinner) is 100 Eur.
The accommodation fee at Gran Hotel Bali for the full period, (6 nights) with breakfast and dinner (including beer or wine), but not lunch, is 650/450 Eur on single/double occupancy basis. The hotel has 52 floors and delegates are encouraged to express their floor preference at registration; the 400 pre-reserved rooms will be allocated on a first come, first served basis. The cost of the use of the auditorium, and that of renting the required equipment has been distributed in the fees quoted above.
To register, please download the relevant form as a pdf file V8Registration.pdf, and mail, e-mail or fax the completed form, including the appropriate payment details, to the address provided at the form heading.
Cancellation policy: Full refund (minus 4% bank costs) on both registration and accommodation if cancelled before May 12th. Only the registration fee will be refunded if cancelled after that date.
