OliverTutor me | Intro to MCMC

This is the first video in my continuous series on Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). In this video, we go over foundations in MCMC, including transition matrices, and matrix-vector multiplication. We use a real-world example of a model of chickenpox virus spread in a hypothetical elementary school.

This series is great for complete beginners, those needing a MCMC refresher, and students in courses like UC Berkeley's (Cal) Data 8, C88C, CS61a, CS61b, CS61c, Data 140, and many others.

I am a private tutor and PhD candidate at UC Berkeley with a thesis in applied Artificial Intelligence (AI). At the time of writing this (Oct 26, 2025), I have a 5.0 star rating across more than 1,200 hours tutoring and 261 reviews on Wyzant.
