Monthly Meetup -- Example models in Stan
Details
The monthly meetup. We're going to talk about building models in Stan, starting with a simple linear regression, then introducing hierarchical models, and finally I'll show off how to put things together by trying to estimate AFL home advantage.
Rough plan:
6.00 - 6.15: Arrive, beers, chat
6.15 - 6.45: Talk
6.45 - 7.30: Chat
7.30 - : Optional pub!
In a surprise turn of events, it so happens that we will be joined by the Melbourne Haskell Users Group (https://www.meetup.com/Melbourne-Haskell-Users-Group/events/qfptslyxlbnc/). It should be fun to hear their take on probabilistic programming!
