Bayesian Data Analysis (BADA02)
ONLINE COURSE ? Bayesian Data Analysis (BADA02) https://www.prstatistics.com/course/bayesian-data-analysis-bada02/ Please feel free to share! COURSE DETAILS Bayesian methods are now increasingly widely used in data analysis across most scientific research fields. Given that Bayesian methods differ conceptually and theoretically from their classical statistical counterparts that are traditionally taught in statistics courses, many researchers do not have opportunities to learn the fundamentals of Bayesian methods, which makes using Bayesian data analysis in practice more challenging. The aim of this course is to provide a solid introduction to Bayesian methods, both theoretically and practically. We will begin by teaching the fundamental concepts of Bayesian inference and Bayesian modelling, including how Bayesian methods differ from their classical statistics counterparts, and show how to do Bayesian data analysis in practice in R. We then provide a solid introduction to Bayesian approaches to these topics using R and the brms package. We begin by covering Bayesian approaches to linear regression. We will then proceed to Bayesian approaches to generalized linear models, including binary logistic regression, ordinal logistic regression, Poisson regression, zero-inflated models, etc. Finally, we will cover Bayesian approaches to multilevel and mixed effects models. Throughout this course, we will be using, via the brms package, Stan based Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods. Email oliverhooker at prstatistics.com
