New versions of nimble and nimbleHMC are available on CRAN. nimble now includes a Barker block sampler for MCMC, better implementations of Laplace approximation and adaptive Gauss-Hermite quadrature, and calling any user-provided optimization function. https://t.co/7Adq09ih7g

nimble 1.2.0 is out! (details: https://t.co/Kbznhp9HCQ). Includes adaptive Gauss-Hermite quadrature, better Laplace approx, Pólya-gamma sampler, noncentered sampler, revamped MCEM, new ways to provide your own distributions and functions with internal data, and some speedups.

This is incredible.

From @Jamie_Lane where AirBnBs are fully booked next week.

Coming back from my first seminar visit.

It was great to meet folks at BYU Statistics. A lot of fun data-driven work going on.

Glad I am missing the winter storm and had the chance to enjoy some warm weather to hike the Y!

I have been missing the mountains 😍

[R-nimble @R_nimble]

nimble version 1.1.0 is released on CRAN. Blog post: https://t.co/uLuFfDyG7t. Highlights: updates to automatic differentiation for more general Hamiltonian Monte Carlo and Laplace approximation. Addition of (1D) 'integrate' function.

@mcmcgriffin Saw that yesterday and I actually thought it could have been worst. I think the math rendering is quite bad but the text/figures turned out ok!

[j-ISBA @j_ISBA]

Don't forget to submit your abstract for BAYSM 2024, which will be held in Venice, on 29th-30th June, 2024 (the weekend before the ISBA World Meeting)! The abstract submission deadline is now extended to January 31st: https://t.co/JtfuDoLhVT

[Sally Paganin @sampling_sally]

Tomorrow!

Thanks @j_ISBA for sponsoring this and @BalocchiCecilia for organizing!

Hey @ISBA_events help us plan childcare for the Venice World Meeting in July 2024! If you might bring kids, fill out a quick survey at https://t.co/zAmpFrkRO5 . Contributed abstract submission opens soon, and bookings of childcare will occur in March.

[R-nimble @R_nimble]

We've released an updated version of Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (our implementation of the NUTS sampler) for nimble in package nimbleHMC (https://t.co/LwIXp6AWio). Among other things, it fixes an efficiency glitch in the initial release. https://t.co/qwQbqTFcvw

@DanieleDurante2 Congrats Daniele!! 🎉
