Sam Staton (Professor, University of Oxford)

Non-parametric probabilistic programming

Non-parametric statistics is incredibly expressive (Gaussian processes, Dirichlet processes, and beyond). Several authors have proposed probabilistic programming as a convenient language for describing non-parametric models—more convenient than traditional mathematical notation. In this talk I will discuss this, and some recent progress, both theoretical and practical.
