Teaching Bayes’ Theorem: Strength of Evidence as Predictive Accuracy [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Statistician, 2017
Although teaching Bayes’ theorem is popular, the standard approach—targeting posterior distributions of parameters—may be improved. We advocate teaching Bayes’ theorem in a ratio form where the posterior beliefs relative to the prior beliefs equals the ...

The shocking implications of Bayes’ theorem for diagnosing herniated nucleus pulposus based on MRI scans

open access: yesCogent Medicine, 2016
We obtain the input data for Bayes Theorem, and use the theorem to determine the probability of a patient having a lumbar HNP, given only a positive MRI.

A multidimensional unfolding method based on Bayes' Theorem

open access: yes, 1994
Bayes' theorem offers a natural way to unfold experimental distributions in order to get the best estimates of the true ones. The weak point of the Bayes approach, namely the need of the knowledge of the initial distribution, can be overcome by an ...

A non-commutative Bayes' theorem [PDF]

open access: yesLinear Algebra and its Applications, 2020
Using a diagrammatic reformulation of Bayes' theorem, we provide a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of Bayesian inference in the setting of finite-dimensional $C^*$-algebras.

Bayes' theorem, the ROC diagram and reference values: Definition and use in clinical diagnosis. [PDF]

open access: yesBiochem Med (Zagreb), 2018
Medicine is diagnosis, treatment and care. To diagnose is to consider the probability of the cause of discomfort experienced by the patient. The physician may face many options and all decisions are liable to uncertainty to some extent.

Using Bayes' Theorem for Command Input: Principle, Models, and Applications

open access: yesInternational Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, 2020
Entering commands on touchscreens can be noisy, but existing interfaces commonly adopt deterministic principles for deciding targets and often result in errors. Building on prior research of using Bayes' theorem to handle uncertainty in input, this paper

Trends in epidemiology in the 21st century: time to adopt Bayesian methods

open access: yesCadernos de Saúde Pública, 2014
2013 marked the 250th anniversary of the presentation of Bayes’ theorem by the philosopher Richard Price. Thomas Bayes was a figure little known in his own time, but in the 20th century the theorem that bears his name became widely used in many fields of

Preeclampsia risk prediction model for Chinese pregnant women (ChiPERM): research protocol for a randomized stepped-wedge cluster trial

open access: yesBMC Pregnancy and Childbirth, 2022
Background Despite international clinical guideline recommendations, implementation of Bayes-theorem based preeclampsia risk prediction model in first trimester among Chinese women is limited. The aim of this study is to examine the effectiveness of this
