Our review paper on latent Markov models is now published in Statistical Modelling! 🎉 @rolandlangrock.bsky.social @SinaMews. We discuss choosing the right time and space formulation and provide the R package 📦 LaMa for fast ⚡and flexible estimation. 📄 Paper: journals.sagepub.com/eprint/UETXX...

Congrats @bluesky on 35m !

My paper is out! 🎉 I explore hidden semi-Markov models with covariate-dependent state dwell-time distributions — because sometimes Markov just isn’t enough. Case study: Arctic muskox movement! 🦬📊 🔗 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... #stats #TimeSeries #HSMM #StatisticalEcology #rstats

Rdatasets is a collection of 2300 free and documented datasets in CSV format. It's a great resource for teaching and exploration! The new `get_dataset()` function from the {marginaleffects} 📦 allows you to search and load them directly in #Rstats. vincentarelbundock.github.io/Rdatasets/ar...

happy first birthday to Bluesky, and what a year it's been! with every day, the need for an open network that puts people first becomes increasingly clear. we're glad to be building this with you. after all, the heart of a social network is the people.

The world is on 🔥 -- and here's my first publication in an astronomy journal: iopscience.iop.org/article/10.3... We combine Gaussian processes + hidden Markov models to efficiently detect stellar flares in one modelling step. 🧪

Could watch this animation all day 😍 Did you know that you can create GIFs with gganimate()? They can even be embedded in a latex PDF file and played via Adobe Acorbat Reader 💥 #ggplot #gganimate #datavisualisation #statisticalmodelling #finance #economics #quants

I'm just saying this is syntatically correct #rstats code

2024 @copernicusecmwf.bsky.social #climate data out today: 📈 2024 - first year more than 1.5°C above pre-industrial; for ERA5 it was 1.6ºC 🌡️ the past 10 years were the 10 warmest years on record 📈 2024 was warmest year for all continental regions, except Antarctica and Australasia 🌍🌡️🧪⚒️🌊

Quite a nice watch: youtu.be/TE4R8bumI-Q?...

In this year‘s NFL Big Data Bowl 🏈 submission, @rmichels.bsky.social, Robert Bajons, and I employ hidden Markov models to uncover 🔎guarding assignments and use this additional information to improve the prediction of defensive strategies. 📊 #bigdatabowl #rstats

Big Data Bowl submissions are due tomorrow 🚨🚨 The deadline is 11:59 PM UTC, which is 6:59 PM EST 🚨🚨 #BigDataBowl

The {matrixStats} #RStats 📦 “provides highly optimized functions for computing common summaries over rows and columns of matrices, e.g. rowQuantiles(). There are also functions that operate on vectors.” By @henrikbengtsson.bsky.social github.com/HenrikBengts...

I crunch a lot of numbers to ultimately tell people „yeah this thing may or may not happen idk“.

What a year! Bluesky opened its doors just last February. Since then, we opened federation, launched video, rolled out trending topics, and a whole lot more. Happy New Year, and here’s to a great year ahead! 🎉

Every time it’s called a classifier, somewhere, a statistician dies. 😵‍💫 #stats #ML

Sina Mews, Roland Langrock, and I have updated 🆕 our review paper! It offers a comprehensive overview on choosing the right time ⏰ and space 📏 formulation for latent Markov models, providing a unifying perspective on discrete- and continuous-time HMMs, SSMs and MMPPs. 👉 arxiv.org/abs/2406.19157

I feel like not enough people know about Quarto for creating documents. How it works: Write in markdown and use Quarto to convert it to html, pdf, epub, ... I produce my books with Quarto (web + ebook + print version). But you can also use it for websites, reports, dashboards, ... quarto.org
