About this eBook

What Is Bayesian Inference

Bayesian inference is a type of statistical inference that updates the probability of a hypothesis based on new data or information using Bayes' theorem. This way of statistical inference is known as the Bayesian method. In the field of statistics, and particularly in the field of mathematical statistics, the Bayesian inference method is an essential tool. When conducting a dynamic analysis of a data sequence, bayesian updating is an especially useful technique to utilize. Inference based on Bayes' theorem has been successfully implemented in a diverse range of fields, including those of science, engineering, philosophy, medicine, athletics, and the legal system. Bayesian inference is strongly related to subjective probability, which is why it is frequently referred to as "Bayesian probability" in the field of decision theory philosophy.
