Introducing Bayes factors and marginal likelihoods

    Thanks for all the videos, they are quite helpful. Unrelated: After watching to a lot of these videos I can say that I've never heard any English-speaker vocalizing the "intrusive r" pronunciation as much and as intensively as Ben Lambert! ( e.g. Beta(i) is pronounced as "bitter eye", idea as "I dear" etc)

    I am a little confused. People tell me that Bayesian statistics is great because you don't have to choose an arbitrary cut-off value for the p-value. But in this case you still have to decide if you are interested in an 80 %, 95 % etc. credible interval.

  • @BrianHill
    @BrianHill Před 3 měsíci

    Hmmm. The energy required to do the walk is an incorrect analogy. A wide low plateau has the same area (integral) as a low wide plateau, but the wide low plateau would be easier to walk across. Admittedly, this was only an analogy, and the integrals at 5:28 are the rigorous versions of the statement.
