A new issue of the new electronic
journal BAYESIAN ANALYSIS has been
published at http://ba.stat.cmu.edu.
This issue of BA features a paper on
multiple changepoint models by
Jason Wyse, Nial Friel, and Havard Rue.
The integrated nested Laplace
approximation is employed for
computational efficiency. Additional
perspective appears in discussions by
Paul Fearnhead and Gary Koop.
This issue also contains many other fine
articles across the field of
Bayesian statistics.
We hope you will enjoy the issue, and as
always we welcome your submissions at
http://ba.stat.cmu.edu/submit/
The December 2011 issue includes the
following articles:

Bayesian Analysis seeks to publish a
wide range of articles that
demonstrate or discuss Bayesian methods
in some theoretical or applied
context. The journal welcomes
submissions involving presentation of
new computational and statistical
methods; reviews, criticism, and
discussion of existing approaches;
historical perspectives;
description of important scientific or
policy application areas; case
studies; and methods for experimental
design, data collection, data
sharing, or data mining. Evaluation of
submissions is based on
importance of content and effectiveness
of communication.
