Title:
Intermediate PyMC: hidden features to improve Bayesian workflow

Abstract:

PyMC is a popular and powerful open-source library for Bayesian modelling. However, many features in the library aren't well advertised. These features can potentially speed up inference as well as making your workflow use significantly less lines of code. In this talk, I will discuss less well-known or very recent features in PyMC that will greatly improve your Bayesian workflow.
