Latent Gaussian Models in Zurich

Here are the slides of my talk—with some recycling from my slides at Wharton—at the workshop on Bayesian Inference for Latent Gaussian Models in Zurich next Saturday, in obvious connection with the recent arXiv posting and the three posts about ABC model choice. Although there is nothing really Gaussian in the talk, I hope I will get comments from the audience. (And maybe results from a population genetics experiment we are currently running…)
