We are happy to announce the sixth edition of the València
International Bayesian Summer School (VIBASS 6) that will take
place from 10 to 14 July 2023 in València (Spain). VIBASS 6 is a
five-day summer school that offers an opportunity to be introduced
into Bayesian learning without previous knowledge in the subject.
The five days of VIBASS 6 are organised in three parts:
1) Monday 10 and Tuesday 11 include a basic course on Bayesian
learning (approx 12 hours), with conceptual sessions and practical
sessions with R packages. It would be advisable that
participants bring their laptops for the practical sessions.
2) Wednesday 12 and Thursday 13 is dedicated to an issue of
current interest in Bayesian
research. This edition is dedicated to Bayesian capture-recapture
inference with hidden Markov models. This course is provided by
Dr. Olivier Gimenez (Centre d’Écologie Fonctionnelle &
Évolutive, Montpellier, France).
3) Friday 14 is the last day of the school. It is devoted to the
Sixth VIBASS Workshop. It includes two plenary sessions, with
invited speakers Prof. Concepción Ausín (Universidad Carlos III de
Madrid, Spain) and Prof. Duncan Lee (University of Glasgow,
Scotland). Attendants to the school are encouraged to present
their research in an informal brainstorming.
VIBASS 6 is organized by the VAlència BAyesian Research group,
VABAR research group and
supported by Universitat de València, Generalitat Valenciana,
Universidad de Castilla-La
Mancha, CIRAD and Biomathematics and Statistics Scotland, BioSS.
