Course Details
• Introduction to Bayesian Data Analysis: Understanding the basics of Bayesian theory, probability, and Bayes' theorem.
• R Programming for Bayesian Analysis: Learning R syntax, functions, and packages for Bayesian data analysis.
• Bayesian Inference: Understanding the concepts of prior and posterior distributions, likelihood functions, and Bayesian inference.
