BayesComp²⁰²⁷ Mirror

Aussois, France

17-21 May

About the Conference

This meeting is a (purely local) experiment to partly mirror the ISBA BayesComp 2027 conference, held in Texas on the same week. As such, it will broadcast plenary sessions from the ISBA conference, host local talk and poster sessions, and more generally provide an alternative forum for researchers in Bayesian computational statistics who cannot attend BayesComp 2027, for a variety of reasons and towards more diversity, equity and inclusion in conference participation.

Since financial support for a participation to a conference often requires a presentation at the event, a call for contributions is now open. Participants are invited to submit proposals for talks and poster presentations. The scientific committee will select presentations soon after the submission deadline. Note that due to the capacity of the Aussois conference centre the number of participants will be capped at 200.

Participants to the conference agree to follow the ISBA code of conduct during and in relation with the meeting.

Program

Scientific Programme

The programme will be posted when finalised.

Mirror Sessions

In collaboration with the organisers of BayesComp, the local organisers will be broadcasting live, in Aussois, plenary sessions from Texas. Local talks in Aussois will be recorded for broader diffusion, with presenters' permission.

Aussois

The conference is taking place at CAES Paul Langevin, in Aussois, French Alps. The place is a vacation centre owned by French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS) that has housed several Bayesian conferences in the past, including O'Bayes 2003. It offers a capacity of 200 participants, with single and double rooms, for a full board daily rate between 92 € and 105 €. The village of Aussois offers further possibilities for accommodation, as an off-season ski resort.

Travelling to Aussois is easy, thanks to direct, fast trains to Modane from Paris (4h), Torino (1h), and Lyon (2h). And by car if need be, since Modane is the French exit of the Tunnel du Fréjus/Traforo Alpino del Fréjus.
