First Announcement and Call for Papers
http://www.statdem.sdu.dk/IWSM/
The International Workshop on Statistical Modelling concentrates on the
various aspects of statistical modelling, including theoretical
developments, applications and computational methods. Papers motivated by
real practical problems are encouraged, but theoretical contributions
addressing problems of practical importance or related to software
developments are also welcome.
The scientific programme is characterized by having invited lectures and a
pre-workshop tutorial, contributed papers, posters and software
demonstrations. Contributed papers should be suitable for a 20 to 30 minute
oral presentation (including discussion) and focus on motivation, statement
of key results and conclusions, and emphasize examples, wherever possible.
Submissions are especially encouraged in the following areas: dynamic time
series analysis, mixed effects models, environment and pollution,
biostatistics and event history analysis.
Invited Speakers to Date:
Rick Burnett (Ottawa, Canada), David Draper (Bath, UK), Juni Palmgren
(Stockholm, Sweden), Neil Shephard (Oxford, UK), Jens Timmer (Freiburg,
Germany). Other invited speakers in the areas of longitudinal data
analysis, generalized linear mixed models and graphical models are planned.
A Tutorial on topics in Bayesian Statistics and Event History Analysis will
be given by Elja Arjas (Helsinki, Finland).
Students:
Students are encouraged to attend the workshop. The programme is designed
to allow for discussions and interchange between junior and senior
scientists. A special session is devoted to students contributions, and an
award for the best student presentation will be given.
