Would you present your next NeurIPS paper in Europe instead of traveling to San Diego (US) if this was an option? Søren Hauberg (DTU) and I would love to hear the answer through this poll: (1/6)

NeurIPS participation in Europe

We seek to understand if there is interest in being able to attend NeurIPS in Europe, i.e. without travelling to San Diego, US. In the following, assume that it is possible to present accepted papers ...

Pariah state.

Four news headlines which say that Germany, Britain, Finland and Denmark have all issued travel warning for any of their citizens going to the United States. There is also a story of a Canada MP issuing a “fire warning” for people not to travel to the US.

🔹 TL;DR: Built on the nested filtering framework, the proposed scheme combines multiple layers of filtering techniques (one for each time scale) to recursively approximate the joint posterior probability distribution of all unknown variables.

Nested smoothing algorithms for inference and tracking of heterogeneous multi-scale state-space systems

Multi-scale problems, where variables of interest evolve in different time-scales and live in different state-spaces, can be found in many fields of science. Here, we introduce a new recursive methodo...

Postdoc and doctoral student positions in developing Bayesian methods! The positions are funded by Finnish Center for Artificial Intelligence FCAI and there are many other topics, too, but if you specify me as the preferred supervisor then it's going to be Bayesian. fcai.fi/winter-2025-...
