for the final few weeks
Mon Nov 17: we did (a) the L_c(u) = \exp(cu) - 1 - cu loss function, with Bayes and minimax; (b) a bit on different loss functions, and do the details for Lemma 0: g(a) = \E\,|X-a| is minimised for a_0 = the median; (c) mixture priors (where Nils didn't have time to put in a simple example; will do Wed Nov 19).
The class is invited to point to themes, and then we discuss them, with Q + A or more.?
For Wed Nov 19 and Mon Nov 24: we use some time, perhaps not too much on Exam 2004 (yes, it's old), 1 and 2:?
