Xi'an's Og

Here are my slides [more or less] for the introductory overview lecture I am giving today at JSM 2019, 4:00-5:50, CC-Four Seasons I. There is obviously quite an overlap with earlier courses I gave on the topic, although I refrained here from mentioning any specific application (like population genetics) to focus on statistical and computational aspects.

Along with the other introductory overview lectures in this edition of JSM:

• Sunday 28, 2:00-3:50, CC-Four Seasons I: CSI at the JSM: Forensic Statistics and the Value of Scientific Evidence in Court by Hal Stern (University of California, Irvine)
