ISO papers w/ stochastic models: I'm teaching an upper level undergrad course on stochastic modeling (broadly defined). Students come from math, stats, data sci. I'm looking for papers they could read & recreate a model, implement an alg, etc. Suggestions?

I'm looking forward to giving my first virtual department seminar today at UF Stats! Although the travel time is less, I'll miss the in person interactions....

I am organizing our departmental Stats Seminar for spring semester. Any folks interested in giving a virtual talk? Talks must be on Stats (but can be heavily applied). I'd especially love to organize the whole term focusing on those that identify as women and POC.

So everyone is talking about UNC's COVID-19 mess - and all that criticism is perfectly valid.
But we also need to talk about why the uni-administration probably had no choice.
Buckle up and let's talk about university finances and the 4 horsemen of the academipocalypse. 1/lots?

As a warm-up exercise to teach PCA I ask students to pretend they're a whale shark then ask them what angle they'd tilt their shark face if they were approaching a delicious krill swarm...
