A collaboration including the University of Oxford, University of British Columbia, Intel, New York University, CERN, and the National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center is working to make it ...

Bayesian inference provides a robust framework for combining prior knowledge with new evidence to update beliefs about uncertain quantities. In the context of statistical inverse problems, this ...

In my practice, I find most people involved with advanced analytics, such as predictive, data science, and ML, are familiar with the name Bayes, and can even reproduce the simple theorem below. Still, ...

We consider Bayesian inferences on a type of multivariate median and the multivariate quantile functionals of a joint distribution using a Dirichlet process prior. Unlike univariate quantiles, the ...

Scientists have confirmed that human brains are naturally wired to perform advanced calculations, much like a high-powered computer, to make sense of the world through a process known as Bayesian ...

"The more extraordinary the event, the greater the need for it to be supported by strong proofs." -- Pierre Simon Laplace (1814) stating a non-controversial principle of rational inference When the ...

This course offers a rigorous yet practical exploration of Bayesian reasoning for data-driven inference and decision-making. Students will gain a deep understanding of probabilistic modeling, and ...

This paper develops new econometric methods to infer hospital quality in a model with discrete dependent variables and non-random selection. Mortality rates in patient discharge records are widely ...
