Statistical physics of inference and control – Call for participation

On september 12-16 2012, we are organizing a unique small workshop on the interface of statistical
mechanics and control theory. In this meeting, we wish to explore links between robotics, stochastic optimal control, non-equilibrium systems, large deviations and stochastic descriptions of quantum mechanics.

The workshop will take place in the beautiful Albaycin area of Granada, which is on the Unesco world heritage list. See http://www.snn.ru.nl/cyberstat_granada/ for details.

Due to the very interdiscipinary nature of the meeting, tutorial style talks will give introductions into different topics in the morning and we have reserved time for informal discussions in the afternoon.

The meeting is open to a limited number of additional researchers. For registration details see the conference website. If you wish to attend the meeting, please send us an email before June 1.
It is also possible to present a talk at the workshop. If you wish to present a contributed talk,
please send us a title and abstract of your talk before June 1 2012. We will notify your acceptance before July 1 2012.

Looking forward to meeting you in Granada.

The organizers.
