Do you want to learn Bayesian inference, stay up to date or simply want to understand what Bayesian inference is? Then this podcast is for you! You'll hear from researchers and practitioners of all fields about how they use Bayesian statistics, and how in turn YOU can apply these methods in your modeling workflow. When I started learning Bayesian methods, I really wished there were a podcast out there that could introduce me to the methods, the projects and the people who make all that possible. So I created \"Learning Bayesian Statistics\", where you'll get to hear how Bayesian statistics are used to detect black matter in outer space, forecast elections or understand how diseases spread and can ultimately be stopped. But this show is not only about successes -- it's also about failures, because that's how we learn best. So you'll often hear the guests talking about what *didn't* work in their projects, why, and how they overcame these challenges. Because, in the end, we're all lifelong learners! My name is Alex Andorra by the way. By day, I'm a Senior data scientist. By night, I don't (yet) fight crime, but I'm an open-sour…","last_synced_at":null,"page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/learning-bayesian-statistics"},"episode":{"title":"#111 Nerdinsights from the Football Field, with Patrick Ward","slug":"111-nerdinsights-from-the-football-field-with-patrick-ward","published_at":"2024-07-24T11:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/learning-bayesian-statistics/111-nerdinsights-from-the-football-field-with-patrick-ward","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/learning-bayesian-statistics","url":"https://learnbayesstats.com/all-episodes/111-nerdinsights-football-field-patrick-ward","audio_url":"https://api.riverside.com/hosting-analytics/media/b3a83c25792f165cac8645d00d67bedf560ab830b3c01ebf66aef6374aa50948/eyJlcGlzb2RlSWQiOiJjMGI1ZTE5ZC02NmFiLTQ0ZDUtODdkNC1kYzRlMTMxNTg2MGEiLCJwb2RjYXN0SWQiOiI3OWUwYTRmYi05N2FiLTRlOTUtYTg3NS0yNGE4YjllZTI3ZGEiLCJhY2NvdW50SWQiOiI2NDQ4M2JiZWM3ZjQ1MTFhYThjMzE1Y2QiLCJwYXRoIjoibWVkaWEvaW1wb3J0cy9wb2RjYXN0cy83OWUwYTRmYi05N2FiLTRlOTUtYTg3NS0yNGE4YjllZTI3ZGEvZXBpc29kZXMvYzBiNWUxOWQtNjZhYi00NGQ1LTg3ZDQtZGM0ZTEzMTU4NjBhLzExMS1Qd2FyZC1mdWxsLU1QMy5tcDMifQ==.mp3","summary":"Proudly sponsored by PyMC Labs , the Bayesian Consultancy.

Understanding the model and its assumptions is crucial for effective communication and decision-making. Involving domain experts, such as scouts and coaches, can provide valuable insights and improve the model's relevance and usefulness. Customizing the model to align with the specific needs and questions of the stakeholders is essential for successful implementation. Understanding the needs of decision-makers is crucial for effectively communicating and utilizing models in sports analytics. Predicting the impact of training loads on athletes' well-being and performance is a challenging frontier in sports analytics. Identifying discrete events in team sports data is essential for analysis and development of models.
