Produktbeschreibung
The third edition of Bayesian Analysis with Python serves as an introduction to the main concepts of applied Bayesian modeling using PyMC, a state-of-the-art probabilistic programming library, and other libraries that support and facilitate modeling like ArviZ, for exploratory analysis of Bayesian models; Bambi, for flexible and easy hierarchical linear modeling; PreliZ, for prior elicitation; PyMC-BART, for flexible non-parametric regression; and Kulprit, for variable selection.

In this updated edition, a brief and conceptual introduction to probability theory enhances your learning journey by introducing new topics like Bayesian additive regression trees (BART), featuring updated examples. Refined explanations, informed by feedback and experience from previous editions, underscore the book's emphasis on Bayesian statistics. You will explore various models, including hierarchical models, generalized linear models for regression and classification, mixture models, Gaussian processes, and BART, using synthetic and real datasets.

By the end of this book, you will possess a functional understanding of probabilistic modeling, enabling you to design and implement Bayesian models for your data science challenges. You'll be well-prepared to delve into more advanced material or specialized statistical modeling if the need arises.

Autorenporträt
Osvaldo Martin is a researcher at CONICET, in Argentina. He has experience using Markov Chain Monte Carlo methods to simulate molecules and perform Bayesian inference. He loves to use Python to solve data analysis problems. He is especially motivated by the development and implementation of software tools for Bayesian statistics and probabilistic modeling. He is an open-source developer, and he contributes to Python libraries like PyMC, ArviZ and Bambi among others. He is interested in all aspects of the Bayesian workflow, including numerical methods for inference, diagnosis of sampling, evaluation and criticism of models, comparison of models and presentation of results.
