The following todo-list is meant to give an overview over the most important tasks going forward. Leave a comment if you want to be assigned to a particular task or if you feel others should be added, and I will update the issue accordingly.
Date for presentation: 17.02.2020
Presentation
[X] Decide on format for slides. I suggest using LaTeX as it is easy to keep under source control.
[x] Delegate responsibilities for parts 1 and 2 of presentation.
[x] Part 1a: Theory (Markov chains, Monte Carlo methods and Markov Chain Monte Carlo) [@smu095 @solveigm].
[x] Part 1b: A couple of extra slides on priors. With example (linear regression?) [@solveigm]
[x] Part 1b: "But how do I calculate the likelihood?" Probability density function. (By Wednesday: [@smu095 @solveigm])
[ ] Part 2: Practice (PyMC3 workshop). Explain API and usage as a part of the example [Undetermined].
[ ] Add slide motivating use of Bayes in business
Presentation order
@smu095 : 1-5, 12-24, 27 --> + example 2 (Golf)
@solveigm : 6-11, 25-26 + example 1 (AR(1))
Practical examples
[x] By Wednesday, agree on:
[x] Find a relevant use case where uncertainty/transparency is important? I.e. where black box methods are not suitable/preferable [@solveigm].
[x] Maybe try to find a neat example where we minimise an expected loss function? [@smu095]
Setup
[X] Write brief setup description and add to README.md.
[x] Enable master branch protection.
[X] Install necessary packages and pip freeze > requirements.txt for reproducibility.
I'd like to take responsibility for part 1a, concerning the theory of MCMC. My plan is to write a brief overview that can supplement the presentation for those who might be interested in delving deeper.
