Discovered by an 18th century mathematician and preacher, Bayes\' rule is a cornerStone of modern probability theory.
The Tutorial style of writing , combined with a comprehensive glossary , makes this an ideal primer for novices who wish to become familiar with the basic principles of Bayesian analysis..
As an aid to understanding, online computer code (in MatLab, Python and R) reproduces key numerical results and diagrams.
Bayes\' rule is then derived using intuitive graphical representation s of probability, and Bayesian Analysis is applied to parameter estimation.
In this richly illustrated book, a range of accessible examples is used to show how Bayes\' rule is actually a natural consequence of common sense reasoning.
