PPT-Another look at Bayesian inference

A general scenario Query variables X Evidence observed variables and their values E e Unobserved variables Y Inference problem answer questions about the query variables given the evidence variables. De64257nition A Bayesian nonparametric model is a Bayesian model on an in64257nitedimensional parameter space The parameter space is typically chosen as the set of all possi ble solutions for a given learning problem For example in a regression prob .
