Bayesian machine learning treats learning as an probabilistic inference problem. • Bayesian methods work well when the models are flexible enough to capture.

So far, we have considered statistical methods which select a single “best” model given the data. (i.e., a so-called point estimate of model parameters).

We design a test statistic Tn (can be computed from the data). 2. We study the distribution of such a test statistic assuming H0 is true.

We then compute the posterior probability that μ > 0 and conclude there is an advantage if this exceed 0.9. (b) What are the main assumptions of this analysis?
