Some models are useful, but how do we know which ones? Towards a unified Bayesian model taxonomy
哪些模型有用?迈向统一的贝叶斯模型分类体系
Probabilistic (Bayesian) modeling has experienced a surge of applications in almost all quantitative sciences and industrial areas. This development is driven by a combination of several factors, including better probabilistic estimation algorithms, flexible software, increased computing power, and a growing awareness of the benefits of probabilistic learning. However, a principled Bayesian model building workflow is far from complete and many challenges remain. To aid…
