Lux Helsinki 2013


I went to see Lux Helsinki with Iolanda and now I am testing if I can add a video to the weblog. Yes, it's easy :-)

See also Iolanda's post with more videos, photos and text.

MCMC toolbox for Matlab


Happy New Year 2013!

I would like to start the year by advertising a very nice toolbox put together by my colleague Marko Laine.

The toolbox is really handy and I've used it in all my recent works. You can download the toolbox from Marko's webite:

If you don't yet know what MCMC is, I recommend starting with the following Wikipedia articles:
