======================================================================


The European Workshop on Probabilistic Graphical Models (PGM) is a
biennial workshop that aims to bring together people interested in
probabilistic graphical models and provides a forum for discussion of
the latest research developments in this field.  The first PGM workshop
was first held in Cuenca, Spain, in 2002, followed by workshops in
Leiden (2004), Prague (2006), Hirtshals (2008) and Helsinki (2010). The fifth PGM
workshop will be held in Helsinki, Finland, September 13-15, 2010.


The sixth PGM workshop will be held in Granada, Spain, September
19-21, 2012. Granada is located at the south of Spain near the coast and Sierra
Nevada mountains. Granada is the city of the Alhambra.

Workshop Details:
=================

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. To facilitate the spreading of research results and promote interactions among the participants, parallel sessions will be avoided and the workshop will be organized
around a single thread of plenary and posters 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 and data mining in the context of PGMs: machine learning approaches, statistical testing
  and search methods, MCMC simulation.
- Exploitation of results from related disciplines for the construction of PGMs, e.g., statistics, information theory, optimization, decision making under uncertainty, multivariate statistical analysis.
- Software systems based on PGMs.
- Application of PGMs to real-world problems.
