| | This post could also be subtitled "Residual deviance isn't the whole story." My favorite book on logistic regression is by Dr Joseph Hilbe, Logistic Regression Models, CRC Press, 2009, Chapman & Hill. It is a solidly frequentist text, but its discussion of models and rich examples make that besides the point. Except in one case....

| | Yesterday there was an RSS Read Paper meeting for the paper Unbiased Markov chain Monte Carlo with couplings by Pierre Jacob, John O'Leary and Yves F. Atchadé. The paper addresses the bias in MCMC estimates due to lack of convergence to equilibrium (the "burn-in" problem), and shows how it is possible to modify MCMC algorithms...

| [AI summary] This text discusses the development of a system for generating large images from latent vectors, combining Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) and Variational Autoencoders (VAEs). It explores the use of Conditional Perceptual Neural Networks (CPPNs) to create images with specific characteristics, such as style and orientation, by manipulating latent vectors. The text also covers the ability to perform arithmetic on latent vectors to generate new images and the potential for creating animations by transitioning between different latent states. The author suggests future research directions, including training on more complex datasets and exploring alternative training objectives beyond Maximum Likelihood.
