SUMMARY:Fast and generic Hidden Markov Models - Guillaume Dalle

DESCRIPTION:HMMs are a very useful statistical framework\, but existing im
 plementations often limit user creativity. With Julia\, we can have it all
 : custom probability distributions\, arbitrary types\, numerical stability
 \, automatic differentiation\, exogenous controls... without giving up on 
 performance!\nThis talk will introduce the package `HiddenMarkovModels.jl`
  and its main features\, but also share useful lessons about leveraging ab
 straction in scientific software.

SUMMARY:Gradients for everyone: a quick guide to autodiff in Julia - Guill

DESCRIPTION:Automatic Differentiation (AD) is the art of letting your comp
 uter work out derivatives for you. The Julia ecosystem provides many diffe
 rent AD tools\, which can be overwhelming. This talk will give everyone th
 e necessary information to answer two simple questions:\n- As a developer
 \, how do I make my functions differentiable?\n- As a user\, how do I diff
 erentiate through other people's functions?\n\nVideo: <https://www.youtube

SUMMARY:Interfaces.jl: base and package interface tests for your objects -

DESCRIPTION:Interfaces.jl is an attempt to solve Julias lack of explicit i
 nterface declarations. It provides macros to define and implement interfac
 es concisely\, and functions to test and check that they are implemented c
 orrectly.\n\nIts subpackage BaseInterface.jl defines some common Base Juli
 a interfaces using Interfaces.jl.\n\nThis talk will cover things learned w
 riting and using the package\, and hopefully inspire some discussion on th
 e future of interfaces in Julia more broadly.
