Bayesian

Bayesian

"Bayesian" refers to methods in probability and statistics named after the Reverend Thomas Bayes (ca. 1702–1761), in particular methods related to:
* the degree-of-belief interpretation of probability, as opposed to frequency or proportion or propensity interpretations; or
* Bayes' theorem on conditional probability.

These methods include:
* Bayes estimator
* Bayes factor
* Bayesian spam filtering
* Bayesian game
* Bayesian inference
* Bayesian information criterion
* Bayesian linear regression
* Bayesian model comparison
* Bayesian network
* Bayesian probability
* Empirical Bayes method
* Naive Bayes classifier
