Special Focus Series:

Computational Methods in Applied Sciences

WELCOME

Scientific computation has been an important topic in many disciplines. This workshop focuses on the recent advances in efficient computational methods and their applications to applied sciences. Specifically, the topics of the workshop include analyses of Markov chain Monte Carlo, sequential Monte Carlo, particle methods, asymptotic theory and approximations. A list of applications includes astronomy, biology, chemistry, engineering, finance, and social sciences.
