Hacking Day at Mathematics for daTa scieNce is a series of crash courses (4-8hours) in special topics.

The second Hacking Day is Monday and Tuesday, 2019/01/28-29 on:

**Graphical Models** Eva Riccomagno (unige) Federico Carli (unige)

The course is an introduction to statistical models supported on finite graphs. The idea of ​​modelling a complex system with a graph is present in various disciplines, from information theory to systems engineering to machine learning. In statistics a graphical model specifies conditional independence statements between random vectors, thus providing a statistical model for the joint distribution of observed variables. The graph has the advantage of providing a visual representation and is a powerful calculation tool. The course presents the basics of probabilistic graphical models, including their algebraic representations and basic software.
