The goal of this course is to give a meaningful introduction and exploration of Bayesian statistical methods through computational techniques in seven weeks. Publisher: Springer Page Count: 270. Language: English Released: 2009. If you have not taken these classes specifically, examine the syllabuses for these courses and make an appointment to see me within the first week of class. This said, it The second half of the chapter introduces non-probabilistic methods and at this point the book more or less abandons the classical stats approach - it really has no choice because the majority of machine learning algorithms don't have firm theoretical foundations. After this date, we will make the initial selection and subsequent applications will be admitted onto the course on a first-come first-served basis until all places are filled. This book provides a compact self-contained introduction to the theory and application of Bayesian statistical methods.

I read Jackman's text following Gill's (or I should say that I picked up Jackman's text after I got stuck someplace in Gill's -- which I consulted after getting stuck in Peter Hoff's "A First Course in Bayesian Statistical Methods". GO A First Course in Bayesian Statistical Methods Author: Peter D. Florian Hartig, University of Freiburg. A First Course in Machine Learning It is true that it is packaged up in some of the language of machine learning but what you are presented with could be found in any introduction to statistics. Switching to a Bayesian method of evaluating statistics will not fix the underlying problems; cleaning up science requires changes to the way in which scientific research is done and evaluated, not just a new formula. Our goal in teaching this course is that you will be able to apply Bayesian methods to a wide range of typical statistical problems in ecological research.
