Hi Everyone,<br>
<br>
We have a special speaker at the YPNG this week. Please note there
is a different<br>
starting time:<br>
<br>
Ryan Tibshirani, CMU<br>
Friday, October 2, 2015<br>
12:00pm - 1:15pm<br>
<br>
Recent advances in selective inference<br>
<br>
Abstract: We will be talking about a new set of tools for inference
after model selection. <br>
The highlight will be doing inference along steps of the forward
stepwise, least angle <br>
regression, and lasso paths, though the framework for inference is
applicable well beyond<br>
these cases, and other problems will be briefly discussed as well.
If time permits, I will <br>
also discuss some asymptotic results about the robustness of the
proposed tests to <br>
non-Gaussian noise distributions.<br>
<br>
See you on Friday at <b>12:00 </b>in the Stat's classroom.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
