Boston Bayesians

A community of data scientists, statisticians, and researchers, interested in bayesian methods for statistics and machine learning.

We'e estimating interest in a PyMCon 2021. Here's the PyMCon 2020 site for reference

PyMCon async has started but there's still more to come. Register for the PyMCon synchronous conference to get first access to the keynotes, to ask the speakers questions, and much more. All proceeds benefit the PyMC community directly https://t.co/bh5kAqCd7d

Exciting #PyMCon news on two fronts. We got a lot of interesting and exciting proposals in our CFP that we look forward to, and you will soon as well!

And, @colindcarroll made a spiffy new logo for us, in @matplotlib no less! Stay up to date at https://t.co/88D5F7S9ZX

To count an animal population if you can't catch them all: capture some, mark them, release, and capture again. The ratio of new vs already seen tells you something about the total number. Shown here is iterated mark-and-recapture with a Bayesian updates to belief about pop size

To commemorate our #NeurIPS2019 poster at the program transformations workshop we put out a #PyMC4 alpha release https://t.co/Js3W3EhTtY Radon model: https://t.co/r0noDCopl0

Last night, at Boston Bayesians, we learned about advanced bayesian modeling of athlete performance, from Katy McKeough, of Harvard University. Thanks Katy for a fantastic presentation. And also a big thanks to @quantumblack for sponsoring the event.

A great @twiecki talk on Bayesian decision making @BostonBayesians

[Boston Bayesians @BostonBayesians]

The 30th meeting of Boston Bayesians is next Wednesday September the 18th! Join us to learn more about Bayesian Decision Making and PyMC3 from @twiecki, VP of Data Science at Quantopian, and core PyMC contributor. #DataScience https://t.co/M5uwoPGrQq

[Thomas Wiecki @twiecki]

Had a great time at @BostonBayesians last night, talking about how we can bridge #MachineLearning and #Statistics with #PyMC3. Check out the slides here: https://t.co/aQ05TJ0ak1

[Colin Carroll @colindcarroll]

Thanks @twiecki for a great talk at @BostonBayesians!

[Boston Bayesians @BostonBayesians]

The 29th meetup of Boston Bayesians is this Wednesday! Join us to learn more about the connections between machine learning and statistics from @twiecki , VP of Data Science at Quantopian, and core PyMC contributor. #DataScience https://t.co/Dt9yfgKP0g

Are you interested in meeting likeminded Bayesians that are interested in Data Analysis, Statistics and Machine Learning AND you live close Berlin? Then join the Berlin Bayesians (formerly known as Berlin @mcmc_stan Stan User Group)! Updates follow soon. https://t.co/JZCzRCHvTs
