1. On Wed Sep 5 ¡­

1. On Wed Sep 5 we went through parts of Ch 2, Sections 1-2-3. Material from these three sections will be summarised and rounded off Wed Sep 12, and after that we start on Ch 3.

The curriculum list will have Sections 1-2-3 plus 4.1 from Ch 2 and Sections 1-2-3 plus 4.1 and 4.2 from Ch 3.

2. I also spent a bit of time Wed Sep 5 on the Dirichlet-multinomial model; some of this will be summarised in the form of a couple of exercises in proper "Exercises and Lecture Notes 2012" which will soon be put up on the course webpage.

3. Exercises for Wed Sep 12: From Nils Exercises 2008: 15; then 13, where the emphasis is on points (f)-(g), i.e. it is more important to be able to use the results of earlier points than to go through all required details of points (a)-(e) (but try to, nevertheless); then 2.20 from Ch 2.
