Scientific literature reading group
We plan to read important papers of general interest, published in the statistics literature in the last years, and present them in an open seminar. Papers listed below are suggested for reading in our club. If you wish to read and present one of these papers, please let us know. Also, if you have other suggestions, we are happy to add them to the list. Sometimes a group of papers will be presented. Welcome!
The reading group is currently not active. Are you interested in a resurrection? For suggestions: Magne Aldrin
