New paper๐๐
We introduce FInCH, a new continuous-time method for inference on individual animal movement.
FInCH is scale-invariant, models behavioural changes between observation times, and allows for inference in either a Bayesian or frequentist setting. ๐พ
Monday recap 4/4: finally, after our evening meal, we capped the day off with a pub quiz (hosted by yours truly).
Shout out to our winners: โquiz is just real life, quiz this just fantasy?โ!! ๐๐๐
Monday recap 2/4: After our midday meal, Dr Nic Freeman gave an intriguing talk on mean curvature flow and the motion of hybrid zones (hybrid zones serve as thin interfaces between animal populations that are genetically distinct but still able to breed)!
Monday recap 1/4: In the morning we were treated to a fantastic talk by Professor Jennifer Visser-Rogers (@StatsJen) about her efforts to improve the understanding of statistics through the media (and debunking bad statistics)! We even got party hats and dice! ๐ฅณ๐ฒ
#SheffRSC2023 has begun!!
Early arrivals were treated to pizza at @ProovePizza yesterday, and official registration has just opened today!
Exciting stuff๐
The RSC is a conference organised by and for probability and statistics PhD students... a fun, laid-back atmosphere, with lots of great research on display. This year it's in Sheffield!
Only one week until the earlybird discount finishes- don't miss out!
Only one week left until the early bird offer closes- don't forget to register by 11th July!

@sheffielduni@BioSScotland The final talk in the session continues the theme of continuous time animal movement models with Dominic Grainger discussing efficient computational algorithms. #ncse2023@sheffielduni
Watfordโs Ken Sema suffers with a stutter, but he bravely came out and did the post-match interview last night... โค๏ธ
This will really help a lot of people. Anyone who suffers with a stammer knows how hard and deflating it can be. Brilliant @Semaken! ๐
