================
The European Workshop on Probabilistic Graphical Models (PGM) is a
biennial workshop, which was first held in Cuenca, Spain, in 2002,
followed by workshops in Leiden (2004), Prague (2006) and Hirtshals
(2008). The fifth PGM workshop will be held in Helsinki, Finland,
September 13-15, 2010.
The aim of the workshop is to bring together people interested in
probabilistic graphical models and provide a forum for discussion of the
latest research developments in this field. The workshop is organized so
as to facilitate discussions and collaboration among the participants
also outside the workshop sessions. We welcome theoretical and applied
contributions related to the following topics:
* Principles of Bayesian (belief) networks, chain graphs, decision
networks, influence diagrams, and other probabilistic graphical models
(PGMs)
* Information processing in PGMs, exact and approximate inference
* Learning in the context of PGMs: machine learning approaches,
statistical methods, data/graph mining, criteria for model
selection/validation/regularization, optimization algorithms for
searching the model space
* Exploitation of results from different disciplines for the
construction and use of PGMs, e.g., computer science, statistics,
information theory, mathematics, physics, optimization, decision theory
* Software systems based on PGMs
* Applications of PGMs to real-world problems
We invite submissions that concern one or more of the above topics, or
any other aspects related to probabilistic graphical models. Papers
submitted for review should report on original, previously unpublished
work. Each submitted paper will be reviewed by at least two reviewers.
Submission procedure: see http://pgm2010.hiit.fi/cfp.html
