To, say, ECOLOG to advertise the course. Just saw one pop up and realised we've not done much advertising so far...
Happy to write some copy for it, suggestions welcome.
It would be polite to ask Simon Wood if he minds this happening and see if he would like to be involved.
Can one of you, perhaps @dill as you have used the HTML slide classes in RStudio more than me, push a file with a basic YAML header with everything needed for using the HTML slides class we want to use for the materials?
If we're not using the same slide classes then we can ignore this and I'll just use my metropolis-themed beamer slides template.
I guess it's important to also know what ESA want from us... From their call for proposals, they would like to know:
@eric-pedersen, it seems that there is some error when I get to line 315 of the beyond the exponential family slides.
Error: invalid subscript type 'double'
Any ideas? My pipe skills are not as good as yours it would seem!
@eric-pedersen here are some things that we talked about... on the examples:
Could we use the BBS data for the spatial and time series data, so that we did:
then we don't have to introduce a bunch of different data sets? (Need to check with Dave Harris about modelling this -- ignore detectability.)
Do you have strong feelings about this?
A rough outline and ordering of topics. This is just my basic off-top-of head idea so I won;t be offended if you don't agree.
I was thinking that the theory with some small examples to illustrate and practice would take the morning (given those are often shorter slots, say up to and including Model Checking. The rest is for the PM part with more practical/hands on stuff.

Comment, but also (if you can, if not @eric-pedersen can you make David and I have admin/commit rights to this repo only?) if you want to suggest things for removal, use strikethrough (e.g. ~~text~~
so we can discuss if someone has strong desire to include a topic)?
I think GPL >=2 for code and CC-BY for the slides text? Maybe everyone else disagrees?
If there isn't wifi, should we plan for this problem and bring some USB sticks/drives with CRAN mirrors on or somesuch? Maybe packrat
can help? I also have a spare wireless router I can bring.
Hi folks, @dill @gavinsimpson
I just pushed a commit with a new extended example for the second part of the day, focusing on non-linear time series data. The compiled script is "example-nonlinear-timeseries.html". It's partially based of the nonlinear trend analysis from Gavin's blog, and partially off the nonlinear analysis of the lynx data set, derived from Cosma Shalizi's blog. I still have to add a reference section to acknowledge both of those; that's on my todo list.
I was looking for feedback on it. Does this seem like a reasonable format for the extended examples? Does it need more explanatory text? Do the exercises make sense?
Also, putting this together took a fair bit of time, so we may need to trim down the number of extended examples back a bit.
At the moment I'm all alone on the instructor page.
Please add yourselves :)
Just wanted to put together an approximate agenda for this afternoon...
Please add any additional stuff you think we need to think about!!
According to https://github.com/eric-pedersen/mgcv-esa-workshop/blob/master/course_outline.md we think everything will happen in the morning... Obviously this is wrong...
Currently we have 2x 4 hour blocks: 8am-12pm and 1pm-5pm set up. I think @gavinsimpson and I implicitly thought of the following structure (tell me if I'm wrong Gavin!):
Morning
Afternoon
Does this make sense?
If so, we had previous attributed "1 session" to the intro and "1/2 sessions" to the other three sections in the morning. If we then split 4 hours into 2.5 "sessions", we could get to 1.5 hours for the intro, then, 30-45 mins for the other three, we'd have at least a 15 min coffee break. That being said, I think that leaves things a little tight, especially if we want to have some time for practical exercises. I'm going to try to put my intro slides together this weekend/early next week, so I'll have a better idea of how long that first part will be soon, then we can re-jig a bit from there.
Afternoon I think is a bit simpler, as I think the smoother zoo stuff is probably an hour tops, the rest takes as long as it takes but we need to ensure there is plenty of coffee!
I've committed my changes. Sorry if it seems like a changed a lot -- I liked the structure, I just tried to tighten things up a little, given our limited word count. I hope this doesn't cause any offense! We now come in at 217, so you can add more details if you think I cut too much! I'll add other thoughts to #2 now...
