Bayes Pharma 2012 (again)
Bayesian statistics
Software
Julien has posted his impressions and comments on the conference on Christian Robert’s blog.
Agreed entirely, although, while I think INLA really is cool, I also believe that to have more than one software/algorithm available is absolutely a bonus - provided one know what one is doing (but again, see my comment somewhere else about the use of “one”).
So, I don’t think that we’ll have problems of “duplications” with JAGS/BUGS or self-coded MCMC stuff!
PS: I love Julien’s title - “Bayes on drugs”
