Across the Icy Waters of the North Atlantic

I'll be traveling for much of the rest of the month to give talks.

18 October
"Homophily, Contagion, Confounding: Pick Any Three", Yahoo Labs New York.
"So, You Think You Have a Power Law Do You? Well Isn't That Special?", New York Machine Learning Meetup. [Slides (3 MB, PDF)]
(I am perfectly happy to give two talks in a day, if you give me a steady drip feed of caffeine.)
19 October
"The Computational Structure of Neuronal Spike Trains", Applied Mathematics Colloquium, Columbia University.
20 October
"When Bayesians Can't Handle the Truth", Statistics Seminar, Columbia University, 1 pm in Schermerhorn 963. Based overwhelmingly on this, but with a bit of that.
22 October
"Markovian, predictive, and conceivably causal representations of stochastic processes", at "Complexity and Statistics: Tipping Points and Crashes", Royal Statistical Society, London. (No paper, yet, but it grows out of ones like these.)
25 October
"Homophily, Contagion, Confounding: Pick Any Three", CabDyn Complexity Seminar, Oxford.
26 October
"The Computational Structure of Neuronal Spike Trains", Bristol Centre for Complexity Sciences.
27--28 October
Lecturing to the Centre's degree-program students on optimal prediction, self-organization and coherent structures.
29 October
"When Bayesians Can't Handle the Truth", Statistics Seminar, University of Bristol.

Between traveling, and needing to revise (or, in two cases, write) my talks, I am going to be an even worse correspondent than usual.
