| Sep 26, 2016 at 18:44 | comment | added | statstudent | Thank you so much! Sorry if this is a really stupid follow-up question, but in the simple cases that you mentioned, how exactly would we use Bayes's theorem directly? Would the distribution created by the sample mean and variance of the data points become the likelihood function? Thank you very much. | |
