Prof. Druzdzel, one of the co-founders of BayesFusion, LLC, participated in the Eighth International Conference on Probabilistic Graphical Models (PGM), which took place in Lugano, Switzerland, September 6-9, 2016. PGM is a biennial meeting that brings together researchers interested in all aspects of graphical models for probabilistic reasoning, decision making, and learning. Prof. Druzdzel took part in a round-table panel “Probabilistic graphical models, software tools, and their applications to real-world problems.” The panel, whose members included representatives of leading software companies in the field, focused on issues related to practical application of probabilistic graphical models.
