- Reposted by Erik RingenPostdoc position open in Zurich -- Prof. Martin Tomasik and I have a joint SNF project on interpretable neural network approaches for large scale, complex item / temporal structure, online learning / cognitive development data. Please retweet. tinyurl.com/PostdocGNNSNF
- Reposted by Erik RingenI’m not sure I’ve ever seen something so simultaneously absurd and disturbing: the House will vote Monday on a bill that would punish Americans for participating in boycotts of Israel with fines of up to $1 MILLION or prison terms up to TWENTY YEARS.
- Excited to share that I’ve started a new role as Principal Data Scientist with @pymc-labs.bsky.social. I’m working with and learning from an amazing group of people to do applied Bayesian modeling and advance open-source @pymc.io libraries.
- Reposted by Erik RingenOK, here is a very rough draft of a tutorial for #Bayesian #SEM using #brms for #rstats. It needs work, polish, has a lot of questions in it, and I need to add a references section. But, I think a lot of folk will find this useful, so.... jebyrnes.github.io/bayesian_sem...

- Reposted by Erik RingenPrior specification is one of the hardest tasks in Bayesian modeling. In our new paper, we (Florence Bockting, @stefanradev.bsky.social and me) develop a method for expert prior elicitation using generative neural networks and simulation-based learning. arxiv.org/abs/2411.15826
- Reposted by Erik RingenOur updated EcoEvoRxiv preprint "Estimating (non)linear selection on reaction norms: A general framework for labile traits" is now live. Work done in collaboration with Yimen Araya-Ajoy, Niels Dingemanse, @ali--wilson.bsky.social, and David Westneat. ecoevorxiv.org/repository/v...
- Conversely, the tools of “exploratory” data analysis lend more credibility and clarity to scientific claims than statistical testing ever could.
