Recent Office Hours

A few weeks ago I hosted statistics office hours where I fielded questions covering everything from narratively generative modeling, mixture modeling, splines, survival modeling, and more. The recording can be viewed anytime at https://www.patreon.com/posts/120148236.

Recent Writing

I recently updating my race analysis cases study to incorporate the best practices I discuss in my pairwise comparison modeling chapter, https://betanalpha.github.io/assets/chapters_html/pairwise_comparison_modeling.html.

The structure and outcome of the analysis is the same but the models now run much faster.

Upcoming Writing

Next month I’ll be releasing a massive update to my old ordinal modeling chapter, https://betanalpha.github.io/assets/case_studies/ordinal_regression.html. The update expands on when ordinal models are useful and when they are not, degeneracies and management strategies, and introduces a much more efficient prior model implementation.  

My covector+ supporters on patreon dot com, https://www.patreon.com/betanalpha, have early access to the chapter right now as well as access to an upcoming livestream review of the chapter.

Consulting and Training

Are you, or is someone you know, struggling to develop, implement, or scale a Bayesian analysis compatible with your domain expertise? If so then I can help.

I can be reached at inquiries@symplectomorphic.com for any questions about potential consulting engagements and training courses .

Probabilistic Modeling Discord

I have a Discord server dedicated to discussion about (narratively) generatively modeling of all kinds, https://discord.gg/QKmrk4hy. Come join the conversation!
