Bayesian Statistics in Action: BAYSM 2016, Florence, Italy, June 19-21 (Springer Proceedings in Mathematics & Statistics)

This book is a selection of peer-reviewed contributions presented at the third Bayesian Young Statisticians Meeting, BAYSM 2016, Florence, Italy, June 19-21. The meeting provided a unique opportunity for young researchers, M.S. students, Ph.D. students, and postdocs dealing with Bayesian statistics to connect with the Bayesian community at large, to exchange ideas, and to network with others working in the same field. The contributions develop and apply Bayesian methods in a variety of fields, ranging from the traditional (e.g., biostatistics and reliability) to the most innovative ones (e.g., big data and networks).

本書是第三屆貝葉斯年輕統計學家會議（BAYSM 2016）在意大利佛羅倫薩舉辦的一個選集，會議於2016年6月19日至21日舉行。該會議為年輕研究人員、碩士生、博士生和博士後提供了一個與貝葉斯統計學界交流的獨特機會，以交換想法並與同一領域的其他人建立聯繫。這些貢獻在各個領域中發展和應用貝葉斯方法，從傳統領域（如生物統計學和可靠性）到最創新的領域（如大數據和網絡）。
