The 26th Summer Working Group on Model-Based Clustering will be held in Vienna (Austria) from July 14 to July 20, 2019. It will start with an opening social event on Sunday July 14, sessions in the mornings Monday-Friday July 15-19, and a hike on Saturday July 20.
The scientific committee consists this year of Charles Bouveyron, Gilles Celeux, Bettina Grün, Gertraud Malsiner, Brendan Murphy, Rebecca Nugent, Adrian Raftery and Luca Scrucca.Information about venue and local accomodations are available here: http://xmpalantir.wu.ac.at/clustering2019/.
