Bayesian estimation and maximum likelihood methods represent two central paradigms in modern statistical inference. Bayesian estimation incorporates prior beliefs through Bayes’ theorem, updating ...

Bayesian estimation methods form a dynamic branch of statistical inference, utilising Bayes’ theorem to update probabilities in light of new evidence. This framework combines prior knowledge with ...
