At the 9th International Summer School on AI and Big Data, Dr. Gunar Ernis (Fraunhofer IAIS) will talk about Bayesian Statistics and Machine Learning. The talk will take place on Thursday 06.07.2023 from 2 p.m. – 3 p.m.

Talk: Bayesian Statistics and Machine Learning

Bayesian Statistics are a powerful framework to think about statistical distributions and inference with associated models. In this talk we will give an overview of the main differences between the frequentist and Bayesian view on statistics. Further we introduce the main concepts needed to understand and apply Bayesian Statistics to real-world applications. The talk finishes with an overview of Markov-Chain Monte Carlo methods and its application to (simple) Machine Learning models.
