Maximilian Rabe, PhD

3rd paper of my dissertation published today in a JML special issue. In the article, we propose a model which integrates psychological and linguistic threads of reading research. It's open access, so head here for more details 👉 doi.org/10.1016/j.jml.…

Download the full published article for free until 2024-04-28 here 👉authors.elsevier.com/a/1ikKO53naxrQ2 or as a preprint here 👉 doi.org/10.31234/osf.i…

👁🎥📚 My PhD supervisor @EngbertRalf and I have published a tutorial on Bayesian dynamical modeling of eye movements in reading, featuring a simplified version of the SWIFT model to explain differences in experimental data by model parameter variations. 👉doi.org/10.1016/j.jmp.…

@SolomonKurz If the matrix is named S why not s_{12} and s_{21}?

Say I have a 2 X 2 matrix of standard deviations (left pic). I know we can easily refer to the two off-diagonal parts as sigma[1] and sigma[2]. If I want to specifically refer to the off-diagonals with symbols, what would I use (right pic)?

Postdoc alert...please RT! I am hiring a Postdoctoral Research Scholar to work with me on Bayesian models of numerical cognition. Two year position starts Sept 1. Applications will be reviewed at the end of April, so apply now! tamus.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/TARLETON… #postdocposition

Let me introduce SEAM, an integrated dynamical cognitive model that combines the SWIFT model and the Lewis-Vasishth sentence processing model, merging psychological and linguistic approaches to eye movements in reading in a single process model. arxiv.org/abs/2303.05221 #preprint

I'm trying to add a GitHub repo as a file storage in an @OSFramework project. When I click on Add-ons, it only returns this error. I figured it probably has to do with me having had 2 GitHub accounts linked to OSF but deleting one (or contacting tech support) didn't help. Ideas?

I made the R package hypr that lets you “translate” between contrast matrices and hypotheses. I want to add a function that tells you what hypotheses a fitted model tested (ie, what an estimate/p-value/... refers to). What should I call the new function? #rstats #AcademicChatter

@Enemy_Anemone Is there a live version of this somewhere? :-D

I'm recruiting a grad student for Sept 2023 @uvic! If you're interested in memory, aging, and cognitive control (and want to live in a beautiful city), please get in touch and consider applying! Deadline Dec 1st.

@WilliamsNeuro @smusslick @BrownUniversity @CarneyInstitute Awesome! Congratulations, Chad!

One guess as to where I am going to be doing my post-doc with @smusslick! Brown. It's @BrownUniversity y'all. @CarneyInstitute

I did an internal talk at @USFFW giving some tips for study tactics that take advantage of the things we know about memory from research, pointed at other teachers but helpful for students too! youtu.be/kAZECekv3k8

@DaniMertzen @ShravanVasishth @EngbertRalf @linguistbrian @annlaurin @LissonPaula @HimanshuAmaltas @stonekatem @pia_schoknecht @bruno_nicenboim @tmalsburg @EliseOltrogge @serineavetisyan @_joaoverissimo @sol_lago Woohoo! 🎉

Yes, that publication was excellent indeed. 💯

I am looking for work following the completion of my PhD this summer and wanted to reach out! You can find my CV, Research Program, and Teaching Dossier on my portfolio at chadcwilliams.com. But also, here is a 🧵 about me. @AcademicChatter & @AcademicEEG please share!

Eye tracking folx: Are there any packages you like to use to define fixations from sample data? #eyetracking #vision please RT!

Delighted to share our new paper published in #Psychophysiology Our #research shows that #pain is not just another #punishment as commonly assumed by #computational #reinforcementlearning models #RewardPositivity #PainManagement #EEG #ERP Link: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ps…

@tmalsburg I'm surprised you were able to fork

Just finished reading a classic paper on sentence processing and found a number of errors. Where can I make a pull request?

@WilliamsNeuro Maybe this will help: xkcd.com/simplewriter/

If I write my dissertation in plain language anyone gun be mad?

@dstephenlindsay @IsabellaGhement @mjskay Ah too late. Glad the answer has been found already. :-)

@dstephenlindsay @IsabellaGhement @mjskay I think b_Intercept is usually the population-level intercept in brms models.

I'm fitting a Poisson GLMM with brms and using tidybayes's get_variables() to look at the parameter names. R lists both a b_Intercept AND an Intercept in the output. What does the Intercept stand for here? Which of the two is the population-level intercept? #rstats
