01-09-2021 In the tradition of the MaxEnt workshop series, we will host a Special Issue in the journal Entropy!

It is our great pleasure to announce a Special Issue in Entropy dedicated to MaxEnt 2021!

This Special Issue invites contributions on all aspects of probabilistic inference, such as foundations, novel methods and novel applications. Traditionally welcomed are extended papers on contributions presented at the International Workshop on Bayesian Inference and Maximum Entropy Methods in Science and Engineering (MaxEnt 2021). In light of the special circumstances and challenges of this year’s edition, we also welcome submissions that could not be presented at the workshop. All submissions will be peer-reviewed before acceptance.

Submission Deadline: 20th December 2021.

For further information and author instructions, please see the Special Issue's dedicated homepage and references therein:  www.mdpi.com/journal/entropy/special_issues/MaxEnt2021 

01-02-2021: MaxEnt 2021 will, after some pandemic delay and the postponement of last year, finally take place online. I am happy to contribute in the organization of the 40-year-anniversary of this long tradition.
