What’s Bayesian?

- One who bases inferences about θ on its posterior distribution under some model for the data and prior distribution for unknown parameters.

- One who bases inference for an unknown parameter θ on hypothesis tests or confidence intervals, derived from the distribution of statistics in repeated sampling.

What are we?

- See the slides of my talk: Bayesian vs. Frequentist
