“look how much better my favorite model is compared compared to these other TRASH MODELS😒😒😒 when I specifically chose a DGP that matches my models assumptions and not the others’😌”

Yes, yes you are. Stop cosplaying "legitimate concerns". When you join a far right rally, organised by well known far right leader Tommy Robinson, with a host of speakers who outright say they are far right, you are a racist. No ifs, buts or maybes. There are no excuses for being there.

In Newcastle this week attending what should be a very fun workshop on non-reversible sampling! If you are interested in any of the talks (including my own, tomorrow) there are links to join remotely on the conference website!

New paper on arXiv! And I think it's a good'un 😄
Meet the new Lattice Random Walk (LRW) discretisation for SDEs. It’s radically different from traditional methods like Euler-Maruyama (EM) in that each iteration can only move in discrete steps {-δₓ, 0, δₓ}.

Starting from last October, we (@OnlineMCSeminar on Twitter, sites.google.com/view/monte-c...) have been running an online seminar on all aspects of Monte Carlo methods, with about ~30 talks so far. We are currently paused for the summer, expecting to return in September 2025.
