โฆ Synopsis
The book aims to introduce Bayesian inference methods for stochastic processes. The Bayesian approach has advantages compared to non-Bayesian, among which is the optimal use of prior information via data from previous similar experiments. Examples from biology, economics, and astronomy reinforce the basic concepts of the subject. R and WinBUGS.

While there have been few theoretical contributions on the Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods in the past decade, current understanding and application of MCMC to the solution of inference problems has increased by leaps and bounds. Incorporating changes in theory and highlighting new applicati
