Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Bayesian models have seen growth in recent years, especially after the increasing works on MCMC methods. In this Special Issue we like to cover all the areas in Bayesian analysis, from prior distributions to computational methods.
In particular, the topics of interest are:
- Bayesian analysis of complex models;
- Bayesian analysis of extreme data;
- Bayesian analysis of categorical data;
- Elicitation of prior distributions;
- Sensitivity analysis for Bayesian models;
- Computational methods in Bayesian analysis;
- Bayesian decision making.
