Thinking about how this might go

Listener: My chains aren't converging

Andrew: Your model is bad

Aki: Your parameterization is bad

Richard: The Buddha teaches us that numerical integration is suffering
🚨 @rmcelreath.bsky.social @statmodeling.bsky.social & @avehtari.bsky.social are coming on the show mid-June to discuss their new book, Bayesian Workflow!

ONE listener gets to bring a real Bayesian problem onto the recording and have the three of them work through it live.

Introduction.
Since 2014 I've been using Excel to create math art. Post-processing in Krita.

Today I remembered my first QM parameterization of a small molecule failed miserably (turn volume ON for a full experience)

Fellow probabilistic programmers I came up with a parameterization for a Cholesky factor of correlation matrices that looks good. I'm asking to test and see if it works well for you discourse.mc-stan.org/t/updated-ch...

Updated cholesky corr parameterization testing
Hi everyone, I’m asking if people could test out this parameterization of the Cholesky factor of correlation matrices? From my tests on a macpro m1, it looks to be much faster and I can easily sample...

i'm extremely pleased with how well the german version de.pghrt.diy has come together. this was my bottleneck, but now whenever other translators finish i'll be able to have the new translation up within the hour without a hitch. we looooove robust parameterization and localization-agnostic code!!!!

Yes, a 3km CAM is running a convective parameterization scheme…

once again annoyed that we chose to call it "arc length parameterization" rather than "unit speed parameterization"

Lecture B02 of Statistical Rethinking 2026. Multilevel model expansion: workflow, cluster and feature engineering, non-centered parameterization, dank memes. Continues next week with models of population covariance and (if there is time) group-level confounding and "Mundlak machines".

Don't sleep on this.

While we do have some static parameterization for storage location. We don't actually want dynamic parameterization in the cache directive. That would be too early. It should be able to parameterize it using the content of the function and only that.

Implicit surfaces are great, but if you are not Inigo Quilez, it's really hard to control how they look...

That's why I'm really proud to annonce our Eurographics 2025 paper: "Implicit UVs: Real-time semi-global parameterization of implicit surfaces".

just searched up "arc-length parameterization cubic bezier" and there was an exact match . the world wide web is so back

I think about this a lot — strong parameterization as a way of taking “neutral” OSR and warping it into something else. really interested to see what you come up with in the end.

hmm. I suspect I could get codex to do this, which means I also suspect you could get claude to do this. is your prompting cad-like? parameterization and constraints?

🤷‍♀️ We have shown that the adjusted parameterization approach improves model accuracy, but does it change model predictions?

Well, predicted herd immunity thresholds are drastically lower under adjusted parameterization!
