Slides are available [here](https://github.com/lacerbi/workshop-nyu-2019/blob/master/presentation/acerbi-nyu-tutorial-sep2019.pdf).\n\nTo run some of the model-fitting algorithms in the tutorial you need to download and install the following MATLAB toolboxes:\n  - Bayesian Adaptive Direct Search (BADS): https://github.com/lacerbi/bads\n  - Variational Bayesian Monte Carlo (VBMC): https://github.com/lacerbi/vbmc\n\nFor more info about my work in computational neuroscience and machine learning, follow me on Twitter: https://twitter.com/AcerbiLuigi\n\n**Example: Optimization of Rosenbrock's function with BADS** ![Example: Optimization of Rosenbrock's function with BADS](https://github.com/lacerbi/workshop-bristol-2019/blob/master/docs/bads-optimviz.gif \"Example: Optimization of Rosenbrock's function with BADS\")\n\nFor more visualizations of optimization algorithms at work, see [here](https://github.com/lacerbi/optimviz).\n\n\n## License\n\nCode and scripts in this repository are released under the terms of the [MIT License](https://github.com/lacerbi/workshop-bristol-2019/blob/master/LICENSE).\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Flacerbi%2Fworkshop-nyu-2019","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Flacerbi%2Fworkshop-nyu-2019","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Flacerbi%2Fworkshop-nyu-2019/lists"}
