What is this?

The Bayes theorem and its generalizations allow us to infer or deduce the probability of an event, proposition, theory or quantifiable cause, given an observed consequence or measured effect. The theorem is especially useful when a consequence or effect may be due to a multitude of causes.

In this book, the author introduces Bayes' theorem from the ground up and discusses methods of Bayesian analysis in a broad range of applications.

Familiarity with elementary mathematics is assumed in most early sections, while college-level mathematics is required in more advanced sections.

Why give away the pdf?
