Abstract
The exponential random graph is widely used in the statistical analysis of network data. It is a Markov random field model, and suffers from the problem that the likelihood is unavailable for all but trivially small networks. This talk will present two approaches; one simulation based, the other deterministic, which aim to overcome this difficulty.
Series This talk is part of the Probabilistic Systems, Information, and Inference Group Seminars series.
