Turing.jl: An Overview
11-09, 21:55–21:57 (UTC), Plenaries

Turing.jl is a Julia library focusing on Bayesian inference with probabilistic programming. It has a special focus on modularity, and it decouples the modelling language and inference methods. This talk highlights the features of Turing.jl. Furthermore, references are provided to tutorials for working with Turing.
Slides of this talk are available at bit.ly/turing-an-overview and also available on the GitHub repository.
