Description
This course is a comprehensive guide to Bayesian Statistics. It includes video explanations along with real life illustrations, examples, numerical problems, and take away notes. The course covers the basic theory behind probabilistic and Bayesian modelling, and their applications to common problems in data science, business, and applied sciences.
The course is divided into the following sections:
Section 2 and 3: These two sections cover the concepts that are crucial to understand the basics of Bayesian Statistics-
- Introduction to Bayesian Probability
