A standard assump tion of these techniques is that individuals can be identified uniquely an d without error\, but this can be violated in many ways. In some cases\, i t may not be possible to identify individuals uniquely because of the stud y design or the choice of marks. Other times\, errors may occur so that in dividuals are incorrectly identified. I will discuss work with my collabor ators over the past 10 years developing methods to account for problems th at arise when are only individuals are only partially identified. I will p resent theoretical aspects of this research\, including an introduction to the latent multinomial model and algebraic statistics\, and also describe applications to studies of species ranging from the golden mantella (an e ndangered frog endemic to Madagascar measuring only 20 mm) to the whale sh ark (the largest known species of sh measuring up to 19 m).\n \n PLACE :\n Zo om: https://umontreal.zoom.us/j/93983313215?pwd=clB6cUNsSjAvRmFMME1PblhkTU tsQT09\n ID de réunion : 939 8331 3215\n Code secret : 096952\n \n http://crm. umontreal.ca/colloque-sciences-mathematiques-quebec/#csmq\n\n \n DTSTART:20211126T203000Z DTEND:20211126T213000Z SUMMARY:Simon Bonner (U of Western Ontario) URL:/mathstat/channels/event/simon-bonner-u-western-on tario-335055 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
