[PL-sem-jr] Probabilistic programming languages - Monday at 11:00 - WVH 366

[Andrew Cobb]

Machine learning is largely concerned with reasoning about processes 
from looking at data. Probabilistic programming languages attempt to 
make this job easier by providing a domain specific language for some 
common machine learning techniques. This talk will cover the background 
of bayesian probability, explain the problem of statistical inference, 
and sketch semantics for a few languages that can be used in this area.
