It yields the conditional probability distribution of a random variable A , assuming we know: information about another variable B in terms of the conditional probability distribution of B given A , and the marginal probability distribution of A alone. This article gives a formal mathematical discussion of the theorem, some of its extensions, and an example of its use. As a formal theorem , it is valid regardless of how one interprets probability .

POPFile Automatic Email Sorting using Naive Bayes [Download] [Discuss] [Manual] [Main Page] ... [Mailing List] Welcome to the home of POPFile the open source POP3 proxy that does email classification and sorting using Naive Bayes. History The Reverend Thomas Bayes lived in the English town of Tunbridge Wells in the 18th century. Three years after his death in 1761 the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London published his paper Essay towards solving a problem in the doctrine of chances [PDF] that laid out the underpinnings of what would become known as Bayesian Statistics. The most famous result from the paper is Bayes Theorem which shows how to calculate the probability of one event given that you know some other event has occurred. Algebraically that is: Or the probability of A occurring given that B has occurred ( ) is the probability of A occurring ( P(A) ) times the probability of B occurring if A has occurred ( ) divided by the probability of B occurring ( P(B) No doubt he had time to think this up because he wasn't spending all day sorting 200 emails into appropriate categories and deleting spam... Meanwhile in the 21st century Luckily, Bayes' 300 year old idea has a direct application to email sorting and text classification in general.

Mark A. R. Kleiman A weblog for the reality-based community Main Matt Yglesias, Paris Hilton, the Spirit of '76, April 15, 2005 The Rev. Thomas Bayes, curveball hitter Just had a long conversation with an expert in engineering risk and systems-failure analysis who has been looking hard at the problem of intelligence analysis. According to this expert, the current process suffers from two failures of probabilistic reasoning. Assume some proposition X about a state of the world that might be true or false: "Iraq currently [as evaluated in early 2003] has an active nuclear weapons acquisition program" or "In the next three days there will be an attempt at a terrorist act in the United States which, if it succeeded, would kill more than 100 people." The classical or Aristotelian way of thinking about the world is that proposition X is either true or false, and that the problem is to figure out which. The Bayesian way of thinking about the world is that, based on what you know right now, the proposition can't be decided to be either true or false, but that you can assign a probability to it reflecting how often, out of some large number of cases in which the facts were as you now see them call that the "signal" Y X would turn out to be true. That is, you're interested in the conditional probability of X, given Y: the ratio of the number of cases in which X is true and Y is observed divided by the total number of cases in which Y is observed.

No. 1876: BAYESIAN STATISTICS by John H. Lienhard Click here for audio of Episode 1876. Today, we learn how to hedge bets. The University of Houston's College of Engineering presents this series about the machines that make our civilization run, and the people whose ingenuity created them. Y our wife and her friend went out and got you a white dog for your birthday, and you wonder which of them selected it. At first blush, it'd be a fifty-fifty guess. But you know two things: your wife doesn't like white dogs very much, and her friend likes them a lot. So, the friend probably chose the dog. We can actually do a calculation here, but it's not simple. If the likelihood of your wife's picking a white dog is fifteen percent, and her friend's doing so is ninety percent, the odds that her friend chose it turn out to be eighty-five percent. To get that answer, we use something called Bayesian statistics named after eighteenth-century nonconformist cleric Thomas Bayes. Bayes' first book, written in 1731, was on

THE REVEREND THOMAS BAYES lived in England (1702-61) and wrote on theology and philosophy; but he was also an outstanding mathematician and is mainly remembered for a theorem contained in his "Essay Towards Solving a Problem in the Doctrine of Chances" (1763), today known as "Bayes' Theorem." Probabilities are normally forward looking: from several causes we calculate the probability of an effect that may occur in the future. Bayes showed how to reverse the process and calculate probabilities a posteriori, or probabilities looking into the past: after an effect has already occurred, one can calculate the probabilities of the individual causes that must have been responsible for it. The most probable of these causes can then be identified, and the relative likelihoods of the individual causes can be estimated. The reason why the Rev. Bayes posthumously visits our newsletter is Senate Bill S-1483, "The Atomic Fallout Compensation Act," sponsored by Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah). The law (now still in committee, but presumably to be taken up by the next Congress) is intended to compensate victims of radioactive fallout from the Nevada bomb tests in the 1950's. Although Bayes' Theorem is not mentioned in the draft, the idea is to compensate victims by "attributable risk," for of thousands of cancers only some are caused by radiation, and of these, only some are caused by fallout from the bomb tests. Since the probabilities of cancer incidence from radiation, and from radiation under various conditions, are known from statistical data, they can be reversed by Bayes' Theorem to yield the probability that a cancer, once it appears, was caused by the fallout.

Stanners Abstract ESSAY ON BAYES by W. Stanners 1. The Bayesian vocabulary Bayes, Bayesian, Bayes' rule, Bayes' Theorem, Bayesian inference, Bayesian inverse probability, conditional probability, prior "causes" with "subjective" probabilities, posterior "events" - references to Bayes are common. "Two centuries after Bayes' death, Bayesian inference ... [is] ... one of the most widely known eponyms in all of science" (Stigler, 1986) . Bayes' paper "must rank as one of the most famous memoirs in the history of science" (Barnard, 1958). How many generations of students have puzzled over the numerous contextual references to Bayes, perhaps tried in vain to dig a little deeper, and then contented themselves with mastering the jargon and the procedures? For let us think of other "eponyms in all science" - perhaps Newton's laws of motion, the laws of Hooke and Boyle, Heisenberg's uncertainty principle.. There is rarely any mystery. Everyone who has any need to know them knows exactly what they are. There are unique dictionary definitions.
