While walking around the Tübingen old town, I ran into some folks I met at #BayesComp2023 in Finland just 2 weeks ago. They're in town for the #ProbNumSchool starting tomorrow. Looking forward to it!

Taking stock of the past week (with apologies for the dense formatting).
'#BayesComp2023 Recap'
-
Were #BayesComp2023 talks recorded? And if so, will attendees be able to access them? Really curious about some of the talks in sessions I didn't see.
-
Now on the home stretch of the return journey from what turned out to be an excellent conference! Hoping to draft out a recap in the next few days. Massive gratitude all around to the organisers of #BayesComp2023.
-
@economeager your paper featured in Tamara's keynote talk #BayesComp2023
-
Some of my favorite photos from Levi, Finland. #BayesComp2023
-
Finally met a bunch of fellow @ArviZ devs at #BayesComp2023! @avehtari @junpenglao

#BayesComp2023 is over! This has been by far my favorite conference experience. The location was beautiful, the talks were all excellent, and I met so many people in person I'd heard of or interacted with online. Many thanks to the organizers! I'm already looking forward to 2025!

On Thursday I skied the 2nd time, and this was much more pleasant. It was clear and sunny, and I found a way to the blue slopes on the south side. It turns out to get better one really needs more than 3 seconds to practice technique before ending up face first in the snow! By the time I reached the bottom I learned how to parallel turn. I feel like I'm ready for a red slope now, but that will need to wait for another trip. #BayesComp2023

Last day of #bayescomp2023 Levi, Finland. Exciting discussions, really high quality talks, and the breathtaking beauty of Lapland.
-
Last day of #bayescomp2023, I very much enjoyed yesterday’s panel on #ProbabilisticProgramming. Looking forward to today’s schedule.
-
Great panel on probabilistic programming at #BayesComp2023 with Mitzi, Tor, @junpenglao, and @henri_pesonen and led by @avehtari #probprog

Wow, BayesComp is intense with so many great talks and discussions with many people! I expect the poster session with 100 posters to be very intense, too. Not much time to post here, but here's one photo I took during the lunch break
-
Very interesting talk by Tamara at #BayesComp2023.
@cameron you would have loved this.
-
If you're at #BayesComp2023 and see me, say hi! I especially like talking about #ProbProg, #JuliaLang, @TuringLang, @ArviZ, and how bad I am at skiing!
Tonight I'm presenting a poster about using Pathfinder.jl to initialize HMC and diagnose computational issues.

In Learning Bayesian Statistics podcast by @LearnBayesStats episode 21 https://learnbayesstats.com/episode/21-gaussian-processes-bayesian-neural-nets-sir-models-with-elizaveta-semenova/ @liza_semenova wished to have dinner with me, and today it happened in #BayesComp2023

Really enjoyed my first full day at #BayesComp2023. The talks have been interesting, and I've had a number of really nice chats during the breaks. Looking forward to the rest of the conference!

A brief recap of my first time downhill skiing. ⛷️ The very first thing I did was accidentally go down this red slope. ‼️ By "go down" I mean I flopped down like a rag doll with at least 10 wipeouts. 💥
Being a sucker for punishment, I repeated 3 times and got it down to 3 crashes. On the final try, I got a leg cramp and just laid on the slope until it went away.
Also my beard froze. 🥶 8/10 will be repeating.

I just realized that I had 0 equations in my slides for "Efficient Bayesian inference when likelihood computation includes numerical algorithms with adjustable error tolerances" today, and proud about that
-
Feeling great, as I got some excellent questions (and one more of a comment) after my talk on "An importance sampling approach for reliable and efficient inference in Bayesian ordinary differential equation models" and meeting many interesting people in person at coffee break of BayesComp
-

On Thursday afternoon (15:45) I'll host panel discussion on probabilistic programming (and what does it require to ge a new algorithm added to some PPL package) with panelists
- Mitzi Morris, #Stan / Columbia University
- Junpeng Lao @junpenglao, TFP / #PyMC / Google
- Tor Fjelde, #TuringLang / University of Cambridge
- Henri Pesonen @henri_pesonen, #ELFI / Oslo University Hospital -
On Thursday morning (10:30) I'll host a session "Trust and adding new algorithms to probabilistic programming frameworks" with talks by
- Måns Magnusson on posteriordb and how to use it for testing https://github.com/stan-dev/posteriordb
- Lu Zhang on Pathfinder and how it was tested https://jmlr.org/papers/v23/21-0889.html
- Mitzi Morris on BridgeStan and testing algorithms https://roualdes.github.io/bridgestan/
