The UK - always so helpful!
Does anyone have any key points to add to the agenda today + Would anyone like to volunteer to run the meeting?
Our last meeting minutes are here: Short-dated epinowcast meeting, 2022-09-30 - #6 by alison
As far as I am aware no great progress has been made on the issues discussed so far.
I have had a few interesting discussions recently about some pain points people have been having and types of analysis so could summarise those.
I have also been chatting with @sangwoopark about estimation of truncated delays (which are of course extremely relevant to nowcasting). We have discussed adding support for external estimation (perhaps in another package etc) so worth talking a bit about which methods work or not. @sangwoopark would you be interested in giving us 10 minutes summary of this?
Finally, It might be useful to discuss the shape of these meetings, and their frequency. One idea that has been floated is that we could have multiple kinds of meetings (for example a talk based meeting every month and a general meeting also every month (so a meeting every two weeks). Alternatively, we could have a regular informal meeting and then a more formal monthly meeting. What do people think?
