Hey folks in #ecologicalStatistics/#statisticalEcology, will we still have ISEC this July in Swansea? A few colleagues and I have been wondering if we missed any information - it is so quiet. The International Statistical Ecology Conference 🤔🤔🤔

I'm excited to share that I published a first version of my Statistics 4 Ecologists book with University of Minnesota Libraries Publishing. You can now download a (FREE) pdf version of the book here: conservancy.umn.edu/handle/11299/2…

Data often exhibit non-Euclidean structure: From the curvature of space-time🌐, to topologically complex interactions between neurons🍩, to algebraic transformations describing symmetries in physical systems💎. How can ML/AI best process this data? Check out our new review!

With other colleagues, we're compiling a list of tips to help beginners get started with Bayesian statistics. This list draws on advice we've gathered over the years from courses and workshops we've conducted for non-statisticians. What do you think? Are we missing anything?

We've updated nimbleEcology to use nimble's automatic differentiation features, allowing its occupancy, capture-recapture, HMM, and N-mixture models to work with HMC, Laplace approximation, and other AD algorithms. CRAN.R-project.org/package=nimble… Ben Goldstein
