'The impact of #AI has been felt across industries from #Hollywood to publishing – and now it’s come for #modelling.

#H&M announced last week that it would create AI “twins” of 30 #models with the intention of using them in social media posts and marketing imagery if the model gives her permission.'

While reading this great paper by @djnavarro I learnt a new term: mathematistry (Box, 1976). It's using formal tools to define a statistical problem that differs from the scientific one, solving the redefined problem, and then declaring the scientific concern addressed.

The rest of the article was a great read and insight. That term was a little slap in the face that a lot of statisticians should get once in a while 🙂

SpringerLinkBetween the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea: Tensions Between Scientific Judgement and Statistical Model Selection - Computational Brain & BehaviorDiscussions of model selection in the psychological literature typically frame the issues as a question of statistical inference, with the goal being to determine which model makes the best predictions about data. Within this setting, advocates of leave-one-out cross-validation and Bayes factors disagree on precisely which prediction problem model selection questions should aim to answer. In this comment, I discuss some of these issues from a scientific perspective. What goal does model selection serve when all models are known to be systematically wrong? How might “toy problems” tell a misleading story? How does the scientific goal of explanation align with (or differ from) traditional statistical concerns? I do not offer answers to these questions, but hope to highlight the reasons why psychological researchers cannot avoid asking them.

Plastic kit: "Variable Fighter Girl: Klan Klang" by Aoshima.
Based on the anime "Macross Frontier", the kit includes a girl character and a fighter plane. The plane can be transformed to the demi-robot style ("Gerwalk" mode) and the girl rides on its back.

(*Attached images show a young girl with somewhat revealing clothes.)

New plastic kit : Frame Arms Girl "Izumo" (出雲).
An anthropomorphized character of the ship-style robot.
The colors of the kit itself are white and red, and I repainted them with grey so that it looks like the aircraft carrier of Japan Self-Defense Forces, Izumo (いずも)...a joke modelling.

(*Attached images show a woman character with high-cut clothes.)
