Working on a model involving some GP regression, coupled with a horseshoe prior for variable selection. In an attempt at counting the number of effective parameters of my model, the following quantity pops out quite naturally. Is this a well known quantity? 1/2

Second call for the DSTrain Postdoctoral programme @uio.no is up! The university is hiring 18 postdocs across 9 research areas and over 60 loosely defined projects. Come work on Bayesian machine learning with us in beautiful Oslo Deadline April 6th, please share!

Klassisk økonomfjas. Det er ikke modellene våre eller måleinstrumentene det er noe galt med — folk lider av «fantomfattigdom» borsen.dagbladet.no/nyheter/nord...

Great department, great group, great city!

Tvert i mot, dette er pü alle müter et skattemessig smutthull. Det er faktisk nøyaktig hva det er: Noe som teknisk sett ikke er ulovlig, men üpenbart heller ikke i trüd med intensjonen. Intensjonen er neppe at eiendomsbaroner skal fü skattefritak.

Always fun little tidbits on the wikis of famous mathematicians. Here on Riesz Frigyes' (*of the* Riesz representation theorem) lecturing style

Like, I get that I shouldn't, but it is surprisingly easy to do inference for a very basic BNN in Stan. Just standard NUTS. The sampler complains a lot, but intervals and mean look sensible enough

I love these clear, crisp, cold winter mornings. As long as there is no snow.

This looks interesting! (and congratulations to the new doctor in the linked thread) I’ve been trying to implement a version of the Automatic ZigZag of Corbella et al. myself and wondering about this t_max parameter. Will have to read this more closely

Very excited for this!

For those who don’t know yet, I am organising an online talk series together with Arno Solin on “Advances in Probabilistic Machine Learning (APML)”. It’s free for everyone to join and support early career researchers! You can register and check out the schedule here: aaltoml.github.io/apml/

Having a lot of fun implementing various versions of the Zig-Zag sampler these days, keen to see how it performs on some more complex models. Screenshot from a "sticky" implementation in linear regression with a spike-and-slab prior

initial attempt at ML for health starter pack, still missing a lot so contributions welcome go.bsky.app/N5UUARF

I made a starting package of the #mathonco community. Let’s all get together again. Let me know if you would like to be added. go.bsky.app/UpYF6Ak

I made a starter-pack for Statistics and Statistics-related groups, departments or organisations. Please share, and suggest accounts that I have missed. go.bsky.app/q6MfWL
