Too Lazy to Read the Paper: Episode 9 with Marta Sales-Pardo and Roger Guimera
Manage episode 335225956 series 3374241
Today on the pod is Marta Sales-Pardo & Roger Guimera.
What a great talk. We could have gone on for hours. Peer review, power-laws, becoming scientists, Bayesian statistics, and much, much more.
Marta and Roger study fundamental problems in all areas of science including natural, social and economic sciences. They have expertise in a broad set of tools from statistical physics, network science, statistics and computer science.
Both were many years at Northwestern before starting a group at URV in Catalonia. They are authors of many classic papers in Network Science, lots of important work, e.g. on community detection.
We talk about their paper “A Bayesian machine scientist to aid in the solution of challenging scientific problems” (1).
