Hi, I am trying to adapt the example from the “Model Based Machine Learning Book”, chapter 3 ( link1 link2 ), where outcomes are parametrized as resulting from a deterministic greater-than comparison: [image] The model works okayish for the observed outcome=1 (there are many divergences), but it fa…

Yes you can also use a cumulative Gaussian in PyMC3: with pm.Model() as m: JSkill = pm.Normal('JSkill', 120., 40.) FSkill = pm.Normal('FSkill', 100., 5.) lg_p = pm.distributions.dist_math.normal_lccdf(JSkill - FSkill, pm.math.sqrt(50.), 0.) JWin = pm.Bernoulli('JWin', pm.math.exp(lg…

… Bad news to this is that if you see a lot of divergence the model is NOT working…

I really think you should change your model parameterization. See eg: Trueskill model in pymc3 - #2 by junpenglao
