Podcasts about Bayes

Anabel Forte, nacida en Yecla (Murcia) es licenciada en Matemáticas y Ciencias y Técnicas Estadísticas. Actualmente es profesora en el departamento de Estadística de la Universidad de Valencia. Anabel nos cuenta su labor investigadora y como fueron sus inicios en el campo de la bioestadística creando modelos para la enfermedad de Creutzfeldt-Jakon, comúnmente conocida como la enfermedad de las vacas locas.  Reflexionaremos también sobre la falta de referentes femeninos en estas disciplinas y lo importante de visibilizar el papel crucial de la mujer en ciencia y tecnología.Junto a ella aprenderemos más sobre el teorema de Bayes y como se aplica a campos tan diversos como el control aéreo, nuevos tratamientos en cáncer o la inteligencia artificial. Además, nos mostrará como las matemáticas y las letras no están reñidas ya que Anabel también escribe poesía que desde aquí animamos a que echéis un vistazo. Sin duda alguna, Anabel nos ha presentado la mejor manera de, como bien titula en su libro, sobrevivir a la incertidumbre. Episodio grabado por ⁠David Meseguer García⁠.Cuéntame Más Ciencia es un podcast financiado por la Fundación Ramón Areces y elaborado por el programa E-Visibility de la Comisión de Comunicación de ECUSA.

Today's conversation might just shift the way you see the world — and the people in it. Because chronic illness isn't rare. It's everywhere. It's the invisible battle so many people are fighting — quietly, bravely — while going about their everyday lives. And when it strikes, it doesn't just touch the body. It reshapes everything: careers, relationships, dreams, even how you move through a single day. The truth is, most of us are already connected to chronic illness — either living with it ourselves, or loving someone who is. But we don't often stop to talk about what that really feels like — or what it truly takes to keep showing up. Today, we're opening that conversation with Brooke Campbell Bayes — whose life changed overnight, from healthy one day to a diagnosis she never saw coming..

Did Jeffrey Epstein die by murder or suicide? In this episode, I argue that we should use Bayesian statistics to frame the debate. Indeed, we should use this approach to frame most "conspiracy theories". Most such theories are derided as compelling storytellers weaving half truths to fit their narrative.Bayes offers a more analytical approach.1. Make an educated guess about the probability of an event occurring. The likelihood of Epstein dying by suicide.2. Identify authenticated clues that support that hypothesis.3. Assess the odds of each clue happening independently, i.e. jail cameras not working, hyoid bone being broken, both guards falling asleep.4. Then calculate odds of those happening together.5. Perform calculation and then update original probability estimate based upon the probability those clues happening.Using Bayes with a "little" help from Grok, I identify the odds of murder versus suicide.I also identify ways that you should attack this analysis and not just my use of Grok.This approach should be used more frequently as we try to resolve debates surrounding "conspiracies". I don't even really like that word. We're really trying to assess whether Event x was caused by y or z.

Pedro unpacks the ongoing battle between Bayesian and Frequentist approaches, explaining why probability is one of the most misunderstood concepts in AI. He delves into Bayesian networks, their role in AI decision-making, and how they powered Google's ad system before deep learning. We also discuss how Bayesian learning is still outperforming humans in medical diagnosis, search & rescue, and predictive modeling, despite its computational challenges. The conversation shifts to deep learning's limitations, with Pedro revealing how neural networks might be just a disguised form of nearest-neighbor learning. He challenges conventional wisdom on AGI, AI regulation, and the scalability of deep learning, offering insights into why Bayesian reasoning and analogical learning might be the future of AI. We also dive into analogical learning—a field championed by Douglas Hofstadter—exploring its impact on pattern recognition, case-based reasoning, and support vector machines (SVMs). Pedro highlights how AI has cycled through different paradigms, from symbolic AI in the '80s to SVMs in the 2000s, and why the next big breakthrough may not come from neural networks at all. From theoretical AI debates to real-world applications, this episode offers a deep dive into the science behind AI learning methods, their limitations, and what's next for machine intelligence.

Send us a textThis week, we're debunking the myth that "anything can happen." In today's episode, we'll explore how adopting this mindset can increase uncertainty and cognitive load—especially in high-risk environments—and how it might set us up for failure. Instead of believing that "anything can happen," we'll focus on reducing uncertainty by deepening our understanding of human behavior and utilizing practical tools like game theory, probability, and Bayes' theorem.Join us as we dive into why strategic thinking, modeled through games, is essential for real-life decision-making. We'll discuss how you can leverage both the knowns and unknowns in human interactions to predict behavior more effectively, minimize ambiguity, and ultimately make better, more informed decisions.

Everything Is Predictable: How Bayes' Remarkable Theorem Explains the World is a book about an 18th century mathematical rule for working out probability, which shapes many aspects of our modern world. Written by science journalist Tom Chivers, the book has made it onto the shortlist for the Royal Society Trivedi Science Book Prize. In the lead up to the winner's announcement, New Scientist books editor Alison Flood meets all six of the shortlisted authors.In this conversation, Tom explores the life of Thomas Bayes, the man behind the theorem, and how he had no clue his discovery would have such sweeping implications for humanity. He explains the theorem's many uses, both in practical settings like disease diagnosis, as well as its ability to explain rational thought and the human brain. And he digs into some of the controversy and surprising conflict that has surrounded Bayes' theorem over the years.The winner of the Royal Society Trivedi Science Book Prize will be announced on the 24th October.

But sometimes freak events occur. In the early hours of August 19th, a superyacht owned by the wife of Mike Lynch, a British tech entrepreneur who only months ago was cleared in a vast American fraud case, was struck by a waterspout, a form of tornado, off the north coast of Sicily, and capsized. On August 22nd it was confirmed that Mr Lynch was among five bodies recovered from the sunken yacht; rescue teams continued to search for a missing woman.

Ralston College Humanities MA Dr John Vervaeke is a cognitive scientist and philosopher who explores the intersections of Neoplatonism, cognitive science, and the meaning crisis, focusing on wisdom practices, relevance realization, and personal transformation. Ralston College presents a lecture titled “Levels of Intelligibility, Levels of the Self: Realizing the Dialectic,” delivered by Dr John Vervaeke, an award-winning associate professor of cognitive science at the University of Toronto and creator of the acclaimed 50-episode “Awakening from the Meaning Crisis” series. In this lecture, Dr Vervaeke identifies our cultural moment as one of profound disconnection and resulting meaninglessness. Drawing on his own cutting-edge research as a cognitive scientist and philosopher, Vervaeke presents a way out of the meaning crisis through what he terms “third-wave Neoplatonism.” He reveals how this Neoplatonic framework, drawn in part from Plato's conception of the tripartite human soul, corresponds to the modern understanding of human cognition and, ultimately, to the levels of reality itself. He argues that a synoptic integration across these levels is not only possible but imperative.   — 00:00 Levels of Intelligibility: Integrating Neoplatonism and Cognitive Science 12:50 Stage One: Neoplatonic Psycho-ontology and the Path to Spirituality 41:02 Aristotelian Science: Knowing as Conformity and Transformation 46:36 Stoic Tradition: Agency, Identity, and the Flow of Nature 01:00:10 Stage Two: Cognitive Science and the Integration of Self and Reality 01:04:45 The Frame Problem and Relevance Realization  01:08:45 Relevance Realization and the Power of Human Cognition 01:20:15 Transjective Reality: Affordances and Participatory Fittedness 01:23:55 The Role of Relevance Realization: Self-Organizing Processes 01:31:30 Predictive Processing and Adaptivity 01:44:35 Critiquing Kant: The Case for Participatory Realism 01:53:35 Stage Three: Neoplatonism and the Meaning Crisis  02:00:15 Q&A Session 02:01:45 Q: What is the Ecology of Practices for Cultivating Wisdom? 02:11:50 Q: How Has the Cultural Curriculum Evolved Over Time? 02:26:30 Q: Does the World Have Infinite Intelligibility? 02:33:50 Q: Most Meaningful Visual Art? 02:34:15 Q: Social Media's Impact on Mental Health and Information? 02:39:45 Q: What is Transjective Reality? 02:46:35 Q: How Can Education Address the Meaning Crisis? 02:51:50 Q: Advice for Building a College Community? 02:55:30 Closing Remarks   — Authors, Ideas, and Works Mentioned in this Episode:    Antisthenes Aristotle Brett Anderson Byung-Chul Han Charles Darwin Daniel Dennett D.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: (Approximately) Deterministic Natural Latents, published by johnswentworth on July 21, 2024 on LessWrong. Background: Natural Latents: The Math, Natural Latents: The Concepts, Why Care About Natural Latents?, the prototypical semantics use-case. This post does not assume that you've read all of those, or even any of them. Suppose I roll a biased die 1000 times, and then roll the same biased die another 1000 times. Then... Mediation: The first 1000 rolls are approximately independent of the second 1000 given the bias (to reasonable precision). Redundancy: I can estimate the die's bias (to reasonable precision) with high confidence from either the first or second 1000 rolls. The die's bias is therefore a natural latent, which means it has various nice properties. Minimality: The bias is the smallest summary of all the information about the first 1000 rolls relevant to the second 1000 (and vice-versa). Maximality: The bias is the largest piece of information which can be calculated from the first 1000 rolls and also can separately be calculated from the second 1000 rolls. Any other variable which satisfies the above properties must tell us (approximately) the same information about the die rolls as the bias. Furthermore, the bias is a(n approximate) deterministic natural latent: the die's bias (to reasonable precision) is approximately determined by[1] the first 1000 die rolls, and also approximately determined by the second 1000 die rolls. That implies one more nice property: Uniqueness: The bias is the unique-up-to(-approximate)-isomorphism latent which has the above properties, making it a natural Schelling point for communication between agents. We've proven all that before, mostly in Natural Latents: The Math (including the addendum added six months after the rest of the post). But it turns out that the math is a lot shorter and simpler, and easily yields better bounds, if we're willing to assume (approximate) determinism up-front. That does lose us some theoretical tools (notably the resampling construction), but it gives a cleaner foundation for our expected typical use cases (like e.g. semantics). The goal of this post is to walk through that math. Background Tool: Determinism in Diagrams We're going to use diagrammatic proofs, specifically using Bayes nets. But it's non-obvious how to express (approximate) determinism using Bayes nets, or what rules diagrams follow when determinism is involved, so we'll walk through that first. This diagram says that Y is (approximately) determined by X: Intuitively, the literal interpretation of the diagram is: X mediates between Y and Y, i.e. Y itself tells me nothing more about Y once I already know X. That only makes sense if X tells me everything there is to know about Y, i.e. Y is determined by X. In the approximate case, we express the approximation error of the diagram as a KL-divergence, same as usual: ϵDKL(P[X=x,Y=y,Y=y']||P[X=x]P[Y=y|X=x]P[Y=y'|X=x]) If you get confused later about what it means to have two copies of the same variable in a diagram, go back to that line; that's the definition of the approximation error of the diagram. (One way to view that definition: there's actually two variables Y and Y', but P says that Y and Y' always have the same value.) That approximation error simplifies: DKL(P[X=x,Y=y,Y=y']||P[X=x]P[Y=y|X=x]P[Y=y'|X=x]) =DKL(P[X=x,Y=y]I[y=y']||P[X=x]P[Y=y|X=x]P[Y=y'|X=x]) =x,y,y'P[X=x,Y=y]I[y=y'](log(P[X=x,Y=y]I[y=y'])log(P[X=x]P[Y=y|X=x]P[Y=y'|X=x])) =x,yP[X=x,Y=y](log(P[X=x,Y=y])log(P[X=x]P[Y=y|X=x]P[Y=y|X=x])) =x,yP[X=x,Y=y]log(P[Y=y|X=x]) =H(Y|X) So the diagram says Y is determined by X, and the approximation error of the diagram is the entropy H of Y given X - i.e. the number of bits required on average to specify Y once one already knows X. Very intuitive! The Dangly Bit Lemma Intuitiv...

Sick of hearing us shouting about Bayesianism? Well today you're in luck, because this time, someone shouts at us about Bayesianism! Richard Meadows, finance journalist, author, and Ben's secretive podcast paramour, takes us to task. Are we being unfair to the Bayesians? Is Bayesian rationality optimal in theory, and the rest of us are just coping with an uncertain world? Is this why the Bayesian rationalists have so much cultural influence (and money, and fame, and media attention, and ...), and we, ahem, uhhh, don't? Check out Rich's website (https://thedeepdish.org/start), his book Optionality: How to Survive and Thrive in a Volatile World (https://www.amazon.ca/Optionality-Survive-Thrive-Volatile-World/dp/0473545500), and his podcast (https://doyouevenlit.podbean.com/). We discuss The pros of the rationality and EA communities Whether Bayesian epistemology contributes to open-mindedness The fact that evidence doesn't speak for itself The fact that the world doesn't come bundled as discrete chunks of evidence Whether Bayesian epistemology would be "optimal" for Laplace's demon The difference between truth and certainty Vaden's tone issues and why he gets animated about this subject.

Salmon Wars Executive Producer and Host Cody McLaughlin is joined by David Bayes, a halibut charter boat captain our of Homer, Alaska and one of the men behind the wildly successful ‘STOP Alaskan Trawler Bycatch' Facebook Group that is a leading voice on the effort to reign in trawler bycatch. David, a small business owner and advocate for sustainable fishing practices, discusses the issue of trawl bycatch in Alaska and its impact on the state's fisheries. He explains how trawl bycatch, particularly of halibut and salmon, has led to significant cutbacks in the sport fishing industry and threatens the overall health of the ecosystem. David highlights the economic disparity between the trawl fleet, which generates billions of dollars in revenue but pays minimal taxes to the state, and other fishing sectors. He also emphasizes the indiscriminate nature of trawl fishing and the staggering amount of bycatch that is wasted each year. The conversation focuses on the impact of trawl fishing on salmon populations in Alaska and the need for stricter regulations. The main themes include the controversy surrounding chum salmon bycatch, the influence of the trawl fleet on fisheries management, the fear of speaking out against trawl fishing, the spread of misinformation by astroturf organizations, and potential policy solutions to mitigate the problem. Takeaways Trawl bycatch, particularly of halibut and salmon, has led to significant cutbacks in the sport fishing industry in Alaska. The trawl fleet generates billions of dollars in revenue but pays minimal taxes to the state, resulting in an economic disparity between different fishing sectors. Trawl fishing is indiscriminate and results in a staggering amount of bycatch that is wasted each year. The current management and regulations of trawl fishing prioritize economic gain over the health of the ecosystem and the sustainability of fish populations. Trawl fishing has a significant impact on salmon populations in Alaska, particularly through chum salmon bycatch. The trawl fleet has a strong influence on fisheries management, leading to loose regulations and conflicts of interest. There is a fear among fishermen and affiliated businesses of speaking out against trawl fishing due to potential repercussions. Astroturf organizations funded by the trawl industry spread misinformation and slander against those advocating for stricter regulations. Policy solutions to address the issue include setting stricter bycatch limits, increasing observer coverage, and banning bottom trawling.

In this episode, Xavier Bonilla has a dialogue with Tom Chivers about Bayesian probability and the impact Bayesian priors have on ourselves. They define Bayesian priors, Thomas Bayes, subjective aspects of Bayes theorem, and the problematic elements of statistical figures such as Galton, Pearson, and Fisher. They talk about the replication crisis, p-hacking, where priors come from, AI, Friston's free energy principle, and Bayesian priors in our world today. Tom Chivers is a science writer. He does freelance science writing and also writes for Semafor.com's daily Flagship email. Before joining Semafor, he was a science editor at UnHerd, science writer for BuzzFeed UK, and features writer for the Telegraph. He is the author of several books including the most recent, Everything Is Predictable: How Bayesian Statistics Explain Our World.

Everything Is Predictable: How Bayesian Statistics Explain Our World by Tom Chivers https://amzn.to/3wxZAKu A captivating and user-friendly tour of Bayes's theorem and its global impact on modern life from the acclaimed science writer and author of The Rationalist's Guide to the Galaxy. At its simplest, Bayes's theorem describes the probability of an event, based on prior knowledge of conditions that might be related to the event. But in Everything Is Predictable, Tom Chivers lays out how it affects every aspect of our lives. He explains why highly accurate screening tests can lead to false positives and how a failure to account for it in court has put innocent people in jail. A cornerstone of rational thought, many argue that Bayes's theorem is a description of almost everything. But who was the man who lent his name to this theorem? How did an 18th-century Presbyterian minister and amateur mathematician uncover a theorem that would affect fields as diverse as medicine, law, and artificial intelligence? Fusing biography, razor-sharp science writing, and intellectual history, Everything Is Predictable is an entertaining tour of Bayes's theorem and its impact on modern life, showing how a single compelling idea can have far reaching consequences.

It highlights the Bayesian nature of human beliefs and the influence of prior probabilities on updating beliefs with new evidence. The conversation concludes with a discussion on the relevance of Bayesian statistics in various fields and the need for beliefs to have probabilities and predictions attached to them. Takeaways Bayesian statistics can be used to make predictions and evaluate the likelihood of hypotheses. Bayes' theorem has applications in various fields, including science, law, and medicine. The intersection of AI and ethics raises complex questions about AI-generated art and the predictability of human behavior. Understanding Bayesian reasoning can enhance decision-making and critical thinking skills. AI has made significant progress in image classification, but still faces challenges in accurately depicting fine details. Predictions can go wrong due to the influence of prior beliefs and the interpretation of new evidence. Beliefs should have probabilities and predictions attached to them, allowing for updates with new information. Bayesian thinking is crucial in various fields, including AI, pharmaceuticals, and decision-making. The importance of defining predictions and probabilities when engaging in debates and discussions.
