The proceedings of the Valencia International Meeting on Bayesian Statistics (held every four years) provide an overview of this important and highly topical area in theoretical and applied statistics. This fifth Proceedings reflects a growing emphasis on computational issues concerned with making Bayesian methods routinely available to applied practitioners both statisticians and specialists in other subject-matter, whose work depends on careful quantification of uncertainties. This book contains several invited papers by leading authorities.
