==================================================================== WPMSIIP 2012 (10-15 Sept 2012, Munich, Germany) --- 2nd Announcement

Dear friends and colleagues,

The Working Group on Foundations of Statistics at the Department of Statistics, LMU Munich, organizes a workshop on principles and methods of statistical inference with interval probability. This workshop is a follow-up to four earlier WPMSIIPs held in Durham (2008, 2010), Munich (2009), and Ljubljana (2011).

The WPMSIIP workshop runs from Monday 10 September until Saturday 15 September 2012. Each of the five workdays is focused on a specific topic, while on Saturday 15 an excursion is planned. The major aim of the workshop is to stimulate discussion of ongoing research in imprecise/interval probability theories, providing a platform to discuss unsolved problems and to address unanswered questions. Therefore, especially the afternoons are structured very informally. For more information and an outline of the tentative programme, please visit:

Everyone, including PhD students, is welcome to participate and/or to present their views on one or more of the covered topics, on one or more days! We welcome any stimulating contribution, ranging from a presentation to a short informal statement. If you want to join the workshop, please contact Marco Cattaneo (cattaneo(a)stat.uni-muenchen.de) or the organisers of the specific day(s) that you would like to contribute to, preferably before the end of June.

Best wishes,

The local organizing committee
