Inference in Models with Latent Hierarchies

If you have a question about this talk, please contact Carl Scheffler .

Note new time

Many naturally occuring datasets have underlying hierarchical structures, motivating the desire for probabilistic models to capture and exploit these properties. In this talk, I will present three things:
  1. a model which uses multiple concurrent hierarchies as its latent data structure,
  2. a method of making MCMC inference for such models much faster,
  3. plots showing the predictive performance of this model

This talk is part of the Inference Group series.
