Subject: [FRIAM] Learning about Bayesian Statistics

 

At Friday's church service Nick asked about how one might learn the basics of 
Bayesian statistics. I said I would think about it, and so here are my 
conclusions.

 

For historical and philosophical background: Read The Emergence of Probability 
by Ian Hacking

 

For a systematic course: Take Coursera, Bayesian Statistics, a course from Duke 
University with a 7-day free trial. 

 

Also of course there are several reasonable texts on Bayesian Statistics.

My art theme: Dynamic exposition of the tension between matrix order and 
luminous chaos.
