15 h : Luke Bornn, Towards the Derandomization of Markov chain Monte Carlo
16 h 15 : Pierre Jacob, On exact inference and unbiased estimation
see the seminar webpage for more details. And make sure to attend if in or near Paris! It is definitely big and MC. Most sadly (for us!), Chris Holmes will give a Smile (Statistical machine learning) seminar at the very same time a few streets away… At least, we can conveniently meet right after for a drink!
