EAC ISBA 2022

International Society for Bayesian Analysis (ISBA) was founded in 1992 with the mission of promoting the research of Bayesian analysis and the application of Bayesian methods. Through sponsorships, conferences, and various activities, ISBA provides the international research community with a platform for the exchange of ideas and the opportunities for collaboration. In recent years Bayesian methods have been widely applied in diverse fields of research, including economics, management, social sciences, public health, epidemiology, education, and big data analysis. With the aid of the rapid advancement of computational power, emerging MCMC (Markov chain Monte Carlo) sampling methods are shown to be effective in solving a wide range of real-world statistical problems, and Bayesian methods are therefore gaining further attention and applications. Asia is the home of many statisticians, and Eastern Asia Chapter of ISBA (EAC-ISBA, https://www.eac-isba.com/) is founded with the intention of promoting the regional research and education of Bayesian analysis in Asia. A conference is held annually in East Asia. The record of past conferences is the following: 

• The 5th EAC-ISBA Conference: Nov 14 -16, 2021, Online and In-person
