The International Workshop on Objective Bayes Methodology, O-Bayes15, will be held in Valencia, Spain, June 1-4, 2015. This will be the 11th meeting of one of the longest running and preeminent meetings in Bayesian statistics, following earlier meetings held in West Lafayette, IN, USA, 1996; Valencia, Spain, 1998; Ixtapa, Mexico, 2000; Granada, Spain, 2002; Aussois, France, 2003; Branson, MO, USA, 2005; Roma, Italy, 2007; Philadelphia, PA, USA, 2009; Shanghai, China, 2011; and Durham, NC, USA 2013. The principal objectives of O-Bayes15 will be to facilitate the exchange of recent research developments in objective Bayes theory and methodology, and related topics, to provide opportunities for new researchers, and to establish new collaborations that will channel efforts into pending problems and open new directions for investigation. O-Bayes15 will feature 21 invited talks and discussions, 3 tutorials and a poster session, all centering on major recent developments in objective Bayesian theory, methodology and application. The organization of the meeting is designed to facilitate interactions, with at most 7 talks per day and extensive discussion built in. The tutorials and evening poster sessions enhance the conference experience for graduate students and new researchers. Funding primarily supports graduate students and new researchers.O-Bayes15 will bring together leading researchers in Bayesian analysis from around the world. The last decade has seen an explosion of interest in Bayesian statistical methodology across engineering, medicine and science, and this meeting provides a timely forum for the exchange of recent research developments, provides opportunities for new researchers and underrepresented groups, and establishes new collaborations that will channel efforts into pending problems and open new directions for investigation. In particular, the past two years have seen remarkable advances in the subjects of the conference; an event to disseminate these advances and spark new developments and collaborations is thus very timely. The scientific topics that will be considered include foundations of objective Bayesian analysis; objective priors in high dimensions; model uncertainty with huge model spaces; nonparametric analysis; massive multiple testing and subgroup analysis; and objective Bayesian methods for the interface of statistics and computational modeling of processes.

Ob-Bayes15的国际目标贝叶斯方法论研讨会将于2015年6月1日至4日在西班牙瓦伦西亚举行。这将是在贝叶斯统计中最长且杰出的会议之一的第11次会议，此前在美国西拉斐特举行的较早会议之后西班牙瓦伦西亚，1998年；墨西哥Ixtapa，2000年；西班牙格拉纳达，2002年；法国澳大利亚，2003年；美国密苏里州布兰森，2005年；罗马，意大利，2007年；美国宾夕法尼亚州费城，2009年；中国上海，2011年；和美国北卡罗来纳州达勒姆（Durham），2013年。O-Bayes15的主要目标是促进目标贝叶斯理论和方法论及相关主题的最新研究发展，以为新研究人员提供机会，并建立新的合作，以将努力引导到悬而未决的问题和开放新的方向进行研究。 O-Bayes15将以21次受邀的演讲和讨论，3个教程和海报会议为基础，均以目标贝叶斯理论，方法论和应用的最新发展为中心。 会议的组织旨在促进互动，每天最多有7场会谈，并内置了广泛的讨论。教程和晚上的海报会议增强了研究生和新研究人员的会议经验。 资金主要支持研究生和新研究人员。O-Bayes15将汇集来自世界各地的贝叶斯分析的主要研究人员。在过去的十年中，对跨工程，医学和科学的贝叶斯统计方法的兴趣激增，这次会议为及时的研究提供了一个及时的论坛，以交换最近的研究发展，为新的研究人员和代表性不足的群体提供了机会，并建立了新的合作，并将努力引导到悬而未决的问题和开放新方向进行调查。 特别是，在过去的两年中，会议的主题取得了显着进步。因此，一项传播这些进步并引发新的发展和合作的活动非常及时。 被认为的科学主题包括客观贝叶斯分析的基础；高维的客观先验；具有巨大模型空间的模型不确定性；非参数分析；大规模多重测试和亚组分析；和客观的贝叶斯方法，用于统计和过程计算建模的界面。
