This unit will introduce the theory of graphical modelling for complex statistical models, and will cover the practical use of this theory in several areas including, but not necessarily limited to: Bayesian hierarchical modelling, hidden Markov models, and causality. Examples will be drawn from diverse areas including finance, economics and genetics, and students will be introduced to software for graphical modelling.
