Prof. Henry Wynn (Department of Statistics, London School of Economics)

"What is learning? A Bayesian approach"

Abstract:
Simple examples show that data can contradict prior beliefs; one can be "surprised". But theoretically one always expects to learn in a well-defined way and the class of information functionals for which this is true is known and includes Shannon information.

Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare.

Cordiali saluti, 
Elvira Di Nardo
