Always flabbergasted by the beauty of conferences social dinner places. #Marseillepremierevilledefrance

The first talk of the second day was also Bayesian! @julyanarbel.bsky.social gave a nice overview of Bayesian deep learning.

I gave a high level talk on Bayesian deep learning at the French "Journées de la Stat" conference organised in wonderful and colorful Marseille. Here are my slides: tinyurl.com/mry6d3zd

Congrats to Jan Greve (Vienna) for successfully defending his PhD, supervised by Sylvia Frühwirth-Schnatter & Bettina Grün. I served as a reviewer. His thesis features 3 excellent papers on BNP priors for data partitions, with an application to statistical disclosure control on text (LLM) data.

Jeremias Knoblauch and other colleagues and friends in UCL launched a "Post-Bayes seminar series". Their will be many blocks of talks, including a series on PAC-Bayes (probably starting in September 2025). The first talk (by Jeremias) is next week. Please have a look: postbayes.github.io/seminar/
