  • The podcast for Bayesian statistics fans

    I first found this podcast searching for examples of applied Bayesian statistics. A year later, I still enjoy every show. It’s not only a great way to keep up to date with current developments in statistical programming but also a source of inspiration for how to apply statistical tools to any and all questions. A great add-on is that the podcast guests also talk about their failures, struggles and personal journeys, which makes statistics - a fearful and/or boring topic for many - more human ... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

#141 AI Assisted Causal Inference, with Sam Witty
Q: What would you say are the best use cases for ChiRho?
Sam Witty highlighted that ChiRho is beneficial for statistical forward causal inference workflows and hybrid models combining physical equations with machine learning.
#141 AI Assisted Causal Inference, with Sam Witty
Q: Was there a particular moment that turned that academic work into a career focus?
Sam Witty mentioned that his prior engineering experience and interest in math naturally guided him to pursue a PhD and a career focusing on causal inference and probabilistic programming.
#140 NFL Analytics & Teaching Bayesian Stats, with Ron Yurko
Q: What is the hardest concept for students to internalize?
Students struggle to literally write down the model and how to build models on their own.
BITESIZE | Is Bayesian Optimization the Answer?
Q: When would you recommend people use GPyTorch independently of BoTorch?
GPyTorch is excellent for flexibility in Gaussian processes and for handling large datasets or structured matrices but may be overkill for very small data sets.
BITESIZE | Is Bayesian Optimization the Answer?
Q: What advantages and headaches did you face when building on top of a deep learning stack?
Building on top of PyTorch allowed for differentiable programming and ease of experimenting with new research ideas, but it was originally hard to implement certain strategies without a suitable framework.
