System On Chip: Design & Modelling (SOC/DAM) Exercises

Here is the second set of exercises. These are intended to cover subject groups 5-8 of the SOC/DAM syllabus (ABD, SFT, RD, E). These questions are styled as Tripos questions, with 20 marks each, but they largely involve repeating what was lectured. Tripos exam questions this year will be certainly be no harder than anything in these exercises. (In future years, questions that require a greater ...

Introduction to Generalized Linear Modelling

Preliminary statement. When I first wrote my lecture notes for the Part II course, Sarah Shea–Simonds very kindly typed the core notes in TeX, and I added to them bit by bit, again in TeX. However, my style was still rather like a telegram, partly as I was trying to save on paper. Now that I am retired, I have time to retype the notes in LaTeX. I have tried to make the style rather more ‘flowin...

Bayesian computation: a statistical revolution.

The 1990s saw a statistical revolution sparked predominantly by the phenomenal advances in computing technology from the early 1980s onwards. These advances enabled the development of powerful new computational tools, which reignited interest in a philosophy of statistics that had lain almost dormant since the turn of the century. In this paper we briefly review the historic and philosophical f...
