Publisher's summary
Perfect for beginners wanting to learn about Bayes Theorem through real examples!
What if you could quickly and easily learn Bayesian data analysis without complex textbooks and statistics classes?
Imagine being able to apply your newly learned theory to real life situations!
In this audiobook, you will get:
- A basic introduction to Bayes Theorem (with examples) - the initial introduction demonstrates how Bayesian data analysis works when you have a single new piece of data to update initial probabilities.
- Adding new data and updating probabilities - takes the above example and looks at what happens if we have multiple pieces of data instead of a single piece.
- Bayes Theorem terminology - the formal names for the different parts of the Bayes Theorem equation, and how it all comes together for an easier overall understanding.
- How to deal with data errors - in a real life situation, it is unlikely that your data will be error-free. This section shows you how to deal with those errors and still get accurate probability estimates.
- Arthur's personal email address for unlimited customer support if you have any questions.
- And much, much more....
If you are a person that learns by example, then this audiobook is perfect for you! It is a very important topic in a wide range of industries - so dive in to get a deep understanding!

We are in the midst of a global mental health crisis, and mental illnesses are on the rise. But what causes mental illness? And why are mental health problems so hard to treat? Drawing on decades of research, Harvard psychiatrist Dr. Chris Palmer outlines a revolutionary new understanding that for the first time unites our existing knowledge about mental illness within a single framework: mental disorders are metabolic disorders of the brain. Brain Energy will transform the field of mental health, and the lives of countless people around the world.

Our gut is almost as important to us as our brain, yet we know very little about how it works. Gut: The Inside Story is an entertaining, informative tour of the digestive system from the moment we raise a tasty morsel to our lips until the moment our body surrenders the remnants to the toilet bowl. No topic is too lowly for the author's wonder and admiration, from the careful choreography of breaking wind to the precise internal communication required for a cleansing vomit.

Hilarious, fascinating, and a roller coaster of dizzying, historical what-ifs, Napoleon's Hemorrhoids is a potpourri for serious historians and casual history buffs. In one of Phil Mason's many revelations, you'll learn that Communist jets were two minutes away from opening fire on American planes during the Cuban missile crisis, when they had to turn back as they were running out of fuel. You'll discover that before the Battle of Waterloo, Napoleon's painful hemorrhoids prevented him from mounting his horse to survey the battlefield.

Bayes' rule appears to be a straightforward, one-line theorem: by updating our initial beliefs with objective new information, we get a new and improved belief. To its adherents, it is an elegant statement about learning from experience. To its opponents, it is subjectivity run amok. Sharon Bertsch McGrayne here explores this controversial theorem and the human obsessions surrounding it.

Today we think statistics are the enemy, numbers used to mislead and confuse us. That’s a mistake, Tim Harford says in The Data Detective. We shouldn’t be suspicious of statistics - we need to understand what they mean and how they can improve our lives: they are, at heart, human behavior seen through the prism of numbers and are often “the only way of grasping much of what is going on around us”.

Bayes theorem is a method that is used to solve conditional probability. Also called Bayes theory, this theorem can accurately give you the actual probability of an event, given information about the test. This audiobook is loaded with interactive examples on Bayes theorem. Bayes theorem is also called Bayes rule or Bayes formula and is used in different industries including spam filters and drug testing, due to the fact that it is vital to have a systematic and proven way to find the estimated probability when new data is available.

The book is decent, but I didn't like the narration. Laplace pronounced as 'Leh plehs', misreadings such as 'Bayesian interference' instead of 'inference'.

Don't waste your money and time
Bayes' Theorem can be explained in a relatively simple way and illustrated with simple examples for beginners. Unfortunately, the author of this book does not do so. The exposition is extremely disorganized and confusing. In addition, the writing is extremely sloppy and often ungrammatical. The manner of narration of the book is also terrible making it difficult when new sections and new paragraphs start.

Not what the title promises
I couldn’t be sure how much of the inaccessibility and opaqueness of this presentation was in the narration and how much in the text itself, but most likely it is both. The writing seems unedited and vague. I was hoping for examples of applying the formula in the specific solution of real world situations, but mostly heard that one could do so. The errors in grammar, sentence structure, and word usage were distracting. However it does provide the formula and define the terms. That part only takes a few minutes, but if that is your goal, you will find that here.
