Preface

摘要

BAMBI 2014 was the First International Workshop on Bayesian and grAphical Models for Biomedical Imaging. It was held at the MIT/Harvard Medical School, Cambridge, MA, USA, on September 18, 2014. This goal of this event was to highlight the potential of using Bayesian or random field graphical models for advancing scientific research in biomedical image analysis. The BAMBI 2014 proceedings published in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series contain state-of-the-art original and highly methodological research selected through a rigorous peer-review process. Every full paper (10 to 12 pages long in the proceedings format) went through a double-blind review process by at least three members of the international Program Committee composed of 21 renowned scientists in the field of Bayesian image analysis. The result of this selection process was a set of 11 articles, nine of which were selected for oral presentation, and all of which were presented as posters, in a single-track single-day event.
