Registration and abstract submission now open at
http://mucm.group.shef.ac.uk/UCM2010.html
The Uncertainty in Computer Models 2010 (UCM 2010) Conference will take
place in Sheffield between 12th and 14th July 2010 and is open to
everyone interested in all aspects of model uncertainty, both
theoretical and practical. The conference focuses on statistical
methods to quantify and analyse the uncertainties in the predictions of
computer models.
This conference is an initiative of the MUCM (Managing Uncertainty in
Complex Models - http://mucm.group.sheffield.ac.uk) project. Research
in MUCM is concerned with all aspects of uncertainty in computer models,
including the propagation of parameter uncertainty, model discrepancy,
validation, sensitivity analysis and the calibration of models.
Uncertainty in computer models is an emerging and highly topical field
of statistical research, with many challenges and an enormous range of
applications. A warm welcome in Sheffield in July 2010 is promised to
all participants!
Abstract submissions are invited for contributed talks and poster
presentations. For further information, registration and abstract
submission details and deadlines, please visit our website
