CSSS Santa Fe 2010

CSSS participants come from a wide range of disciplines. Participants are encouraged to share their knowledge by organizing their own tutorials.

Also, requests for tutorials should be posted here.



There have been some people requesting version control tutorials. Happy to help out with that once we have some actual source code to manage. I think there are a couple of people even keener than me ;) --- Dan MacKinlay


I noticed that last year there was a tutorial on Bayesian inference. If anyone is interested in an introduction to bayesian networks and bayesian inference, I'd be delighted to give one. (Megan Olsen)

  • I'd be delighted to listen, although you would also have to explain what I can do with these Ligtvoet
    • I know Bayesian approaches are used A LOT in biology...if you do make this tutorial, I would love to take part on it! And I could think about some biological ideas we can use as examples to help people understand their usefulness (Vanessa Weinberger)
  • Since I'm (almost) completely self-taught on Bayes, I always take advantage of opportunities to listen to others on the subject. It would also be interesting to hear a non-social science perspective on the topic...I guess what I'm saying is, count me in. (Thomson McFarland)
  • I'm also self-taught (or teaching). Would love to join in. (Susanne Shultz)
  • I'm in. Eager to hear about Bayesian networks. Would also be happy to share some of my experience with Bayesian estimation too. (Gavin Fay)

Quite a few people were interested about Evolutionary Game Theory. If anyone wants to know more I can give a brief outlook on the traditional approach of evolutionary game theory and some recent developments in the field. (Chaitanya Gokhale)
