This is the home page of SIPTA (Society for Imprecise Probability: Theories and Applications).

Here you can find information about the conferences and the schools that the Society organizes.

We also provide some sources for information about imprecise probabilities mantained by SIPTA.

A description of the Society, its aims, articles and executive committee is reported, too.

Announcements
  • Applications for the IJAR YOUNG RESEARCHER AWARD are open. More information here.
  • The fourth Workshop on Principles and Methods of Statistical Inference with Interval Probability (WPMSIIP) will be held at the University of Ljubljana, Slovenia, between 5 and 10 September 2011. The major aim of the WPMSIIP workshop is to stimulate discussion of ongoing research in imprecise/interval probability theories, providing a platform to discuss unsolved problems and to address unanswered questions. More information here.

  • The seventh ISIPTA conference will be held in Innsbruck, Austria, during 25-28 July 2011. More information here.
