o Special issue: second half of 2002 (planned)
Bayesian networks (also known as causal probabilistic networks) with
their associated methods have now been around in biomedicine for more
than a decade. They have become increasingly popular for representing
and handling uncertain knowledge in medicine. Almost simultaneously,
the use of Bayesian statistics has increased in popularity in
medicine. This workshop aims to bring together researchers in these
fields in order to assess the current state of the art, to identify
obstacles for progress and to determine future research
directions. The workshop's aim is also to promote research
collaboration among different groups in these fields.
Extended versions of the best papers of the workshop will be published
in a special issue of the journal Artificial Intelligence in Medicine.
