Description
The aim of this workshop is to bring together a variety of young researchers with interests lying in the interface between the fields of applied mathematics and statistics.
Possible topics to be covered by this conference include:
- Data assimilation
- Stochastic simulations
- Bayesian non-parametrics and inference
- Stochastic numerical analysis
- SDE's and applications
It is specifically intended that the talks will be pitched at the PhD student level and therefore the meeting will be an ideal environment for PhD students to learn more about their field.
Date
9th June 2008
