Oi Clarice,

tudo bem?

John and me have thought a little bit what we could do in our little "programming course", and we have come up with the following:

  1. A computer R lab on "Programming" (say, 75-90 minutes), in which  I do some basics with them (and also provide the tools that they need for 3.)
  2. A lecture  about Finite Mixtures +EM
  3. Another  computer lab (say, 75-90 min.) in which they try to implement the simplest form of EM (for a finite Gaussian mixture) themselves, and apply it on a simple data set.

I would do part 1 and 3, and John would do part 2.

John said he was going to give a seminar anyway, so it may be efficient to use  his part 2 as "the seminar".

Does that sound reasonable?

My preferred day to do this would be the 15th of December, and that would be fine for John too. Would that date suit you and your students?

All the best,

Jochen
