I appologise for the many missprints in the exam!

I hope all errors now are found and commented on. However, I have updated the text which is available here (similar for STK9021).

In exercises 2b and 2c and 3d there are some misprints.

In the last sentence of 2b, you should derive the posterior distribution for sigma.

In 2c you should derive the marginal distribution if theta is fixed, not sigma.

In 3d, the phi in the conditional distribution should be psi.

For model 2 in ex 3 the Poisson model should also have exp(theta_t)

In the table before 3e, the estimates for beta_0, beta_1, beta_2 should be

model1:                                                                                       ...

There have been questions about other relevant exercises.

We have been through most of the earlier exams, but also Exam 2016 is relevant.

Regarding the type of exam for home exam: This will be very similar to earlier written exams but slightly more challenging given that there now are more possibilities for help.

Regarding question today about the extent of the final exam:

Final examinations at the MN Faculty for spring 2020

In particular:

The expected extent of the work will be limited to 2 workdays, and all examination support materials are permitted.

Sorry about confussion, we start at 10.15 today.

I have now opened up canvas for delivery of the compulsory exercise.

Due to that there is no Thursday april 24, I have put the deadline to Friday April 24!

This day we will use the first hour (09.15-10) for questions regarding the compulsory exercise

The NeXT two hours, Haakon Bakka will give an introduction to INLA.

Both the compulsory exercise and information about the exam is now published.

If you have questions, do not hesitate to ask. I will be available on email most of the time

On Monday we will use the zoom system for lecturing. In order to make this available, you need to log into the canvas system, see /english/services/it/education/canvas/help/log-in.html , After you log in, you should click further to STK4021/9021 and from there you click on zoom (on the left panel). You should then find a link to the Monday lecture. 

Alternatively, it should be possible to og directly to ...

Du to the Covid virus, all ordinary lecturing is canceled. There will be video lectures available but the Schedule will probably be a bit changed.

There will be a written exam

The compulsory exercise will be available at Thursday April 2 with deadline Thursday April 24 at 14.30. The exercise has to be delivered within the Canvas system.

Due to that not all the formalities are finished with respect to change of schedule, we start at 10.15 on Monday.

As discussed in the lecture today, I propose to move the lectures on Fridays to Mondays 09.15-10.00. If there are no protest against this within Wednesday 12.00, we do this change.

There will be no lecture this Friday in any case.

Welcome to STK4021, applied Bayesian analysis

The plan for the course will be given under the schedule link. There also presentations (and code used in the lectures) will be available.

Exercises will be available on a separate page (soon available)
