Learning Bayesian Statistics

Alexandre Andorra
Science & Medicine, Technology

Are you a researcher or data scientist / analyst / ninja? Do you want to learn Bayesian inference, stay up to date or simply want to understand what Bayesian inference is? Then this podcast is for you! You'll hear from researchers and practitioners of all fields about how they use Bayesian statistics, and how in turn YOU can apply these methods in your modeling workflow. When I started learning Bayesian methods, I really wished there were a podcast out there that could introduce me to the methods, the projects and the people who make all that possible. So I created "Learning Bayesian Statistics", where you'll get to hear how Bayesian statistics are used to detect black matter in outer space, forecast elections or understand how diseases spread and can ultimately be stopped. But this show is not only about successes -- it's also about failures, because that's how we learn best. So you'll often hear the guests talking about what *didn't* work in their projects, why, and how they overcame these challenges. Because, in the end, we're all lifelong learners! My name is Alex Andorra by the way, and I live in Estonia. By day, I'm a data scientist and modeler at the https://www.pymc-labs.io/ (PyMC Labs) consultancy. By night, I don't (yet) fight crime, but I'm an open-source enthusiast and core contributor to the python packages https://docs.pymc.io/ (PyMC) and https://arviz-devs.github.io/arviz/ (ArviZ). I also love https://www.pollsposition.com/ (election forecasting) and, most importantly, Nutella. But I don't like talking about it – I prefer eating it. So, whether you want to learn Bayesian statistics or hear about the latest libraries, books and applications, this podcast is for you -- just subscribe!

    Takeaways:

    Bob's research focuses on corruption and political economy.Measuring corruption is challenging due to the unobservable nature of the behavior.The challenge of studying corruption lies in obtaining honest data.Innovative survey techniques, like randomized response, can help gather sensitive data.Non-traditional backgrounds can enhance statistical research perspectives.Bayesian methods are particularly useful for estimating latent variables.Bayesian methods shine in situations with prior information.Expert surveys can help estimate uncertain outcomes effectively.Bob's novel, 'The Bayesian Hitman,' explores academia through a fictional lens.Writing fiction can enhance academic writing skills and creativity.The importance of community in statistics is emphasized, especially in the Stan community.Real-time online surveys could revolutionize data collection in social science.

    Takeaways:

    Building an athlete management system and a scouting and recruitment platform are key goals in football analytics.The focus is on informing training decisions, preventing injuries, and making smart player signings.Avoiding false positives in player evaluations is crucial, and data analysis plays a significant role in making informed decisions.There are similarities between different football teams, and the sport has social and emotional aspects. Transitioning from on-premises SQL servers to cloud-based systems is a significant endeavor in football analytics.Analytics is a tool that aids the decision-making process and helps mitigate biases. The impact of analytics in soccer can be seen in the decline of long-range shots.Collaboration and trust between analysts and decision-makers are crucial for successful implementation of analytics.The limitations of available data in football analytics hinder the ability to directly measure decision-making on the field. Analyzing the impact of coaches in sports analytics is challenging due to the difficulty of separating their effect from other factors. Current data limitations make it hard to evaluate coaching performance accurately.Predictive metrics and modeling play a crucial role in soccer analytics, especially in predicting the career progression of young players.Improving tracking data and expanding its availability will be a significant focus in the future of soccer analytics.

    Takeaways:

    State space models and traditional time series models are well-suited to forecast loss ratios in the insurance industry, although actuaries have been slow to adopt modern statistical methods.Working with limited data is a challenge, but informed priors and hierarchical models can help improve the modeling process.Bayesian model stacking allows for blending together different model predictions and taking the best of both (or all if more than 2 models) worlds.Model comparison is done using out-of-sample performance metrics, such as the expected log point-wise predictive density (ELPD). Brute leave-future-out cross-validation is often used due to the time-series nature of the data.Stacking or averaging models are trained on out-of-sample performance metrics to determine the weights for blending the predictions. Model stacking can be a powerful approach for combining predictions from candidate models. Hierarchical stacking in particular is useful when weights are assumed to vary according to covariates.BayesBlend is a Python package developed by Ledger Investing that simplifies the implementation of stacking models, including pseudo Bayesian model averaging, stacking, and hierarchical stacking.Evaluating the performance of patient time series models requires considering multiple metrics, including log likelihood-based metrics like ELPD, as well as more absolute metrics like RMSE and mean absolute error.Using robust variants of metrics like ELPD can help address issues with extreme outliers. For example, t-distribution estimators of ELPD as opposed to sample sum/mean estimators.It is important to evaluate model performance from different perspectives and consider the trade-offs between different metrics. Evaluating models based solely on traditional metrics can limit understanding and trust in the model. Consider additional factors such as interpretability, maintainability, and productionization.Simulation-based calibration (SBC) is a valuable tool for assessing parameter estimation and model correctness. It allows for the interpretation of model parameters and the identification of coding errors.In industries like insurance, where regulations may restrict model choices, classical statistical approaches still play a significant role. However, there is potential for Bayesian methods and generative AI in certain areas.
