Topic outline

  • Week 5: Exponential families (Chapter 6)

    Lecture: We will talk about exponential families, focusing on discrete and Gaussian exponential families. One of the main goals is to learn how to compute the vanishing ideals of these models. At the end of the lecture, we will talk about group projects.
